Congratulations! I don't think you can go wrong with Nareman - what people forget when comparing prices is that Nareman offers a one year warranty with his cars.

Yes that certainly made some difference to my thinking, though the bigger factor was after chatting to him for an hour the first visit it was apparent that he is extremely knowledgeable, passionate and particular about quality in what he takes to sell.

Exactly right, I would have no hesitation in buying from him again but the Stradale he had at the time was two seats short sadly!

Looks nice but it is another 10k miles on the Nuvola one and I'd mentally drawn a line at 50k miles (which I appreciate is arbitrary but it had to be drawn somewhere).

Mine might be with nareman soon- slightly higher price (not much) and less miles, different stratosphere of spec

And if you have a thing for steering wheels- there is about 3,000 pounds worth of carbon and Alcantara - one flat bottomed carbon import and a brand new facelift version in the boot!

So it's definitely going then Iain? Sorry not to see you keep it for longer, they are fantastic cars and will be difficult to replace but good luck with the sale regardless

I agree stuart. Had it almost a year. I think it's phenomenal- and possibly impossible to replace.
I wish I was roch enough (or didn't have a family to worry about!) to keep it as a third car and scratch the itch for a special convertible too.
I use the Evoque for practicality and now probably
Need a convertible as a second car. Hardly ever use the 4 seat potential of the GTS so think oh a two seater maybe. However I will probably have another child soon- list over Maserati's again and massively regret it.
I suppose a small part of me is hoping
It won't sell so the decision will be taken out of my hands- but as soon as someone sees it I think they will buy.
I have looked at close to 200 GTSs either online or in the flesh and haven't seen one like it in that price bracket.

I would love to see your one day- it's the optimum colour and spec IMO.

Iain - remind me what you'd be looking for for the facelift steering wheel? I can't find the previous thread...

It's a tough one, we all like too many cars and we can't own them all so I too would like to play the field a bit so to speak so I can understand where you're coming from.

I'll be at Brooklands with the car so maybe you should come along? There are so many great cars on show there. Your car looks well priced so good luck

For me that's what it's about, without a group of people to enjoy them with there is no point in having one.

Agreed Phil. I know you have said it before and it totally makes sense.
It's a shame I am geographically detached and work is so mental at the moment.
Reckon I would have kept it if chance to go to meets.
Bad combination- overworked- little time to spend- no meets- feel like I deserve a reward- and impatience = ? Another car

Yep a real shame as would have been great to meet you and have you meet all the rest of the crazy quirky crew :D

Still at least you experienced ownership of a wonderful car which is more than many get the chance to. Keep on the board mate and I look forward to seeing what you will replace it with.

I definitely will. I hope to be back- esp if they make this bloody Alfieri!
I do love the marque- and I will stay on the forum ( if I am welcome)- lots of useful tips and a wealth of experience and sensible opinion.
