    Quattroporte 2008 GTS possible sale

    Sorry if I am breaking lots of forum rules here, but... Due to a possible change in circumstances, I may be selling my early QP GTS. I say possibly (hence I may be breaking rules I know), so I wanted to test the water here first. I think the car is known on here. I bought the car in 2021 and...

    FREE - XENON Ballast unit

    Hi All, I am still Maser free and likely to remain that way unless something changes. So, I have sitting here on my desk a new Bosch OEM D2S/D2R XENON Ballast unit which I had intended to fit to my 4200. The issue I had proved to be something else, so I never fitted it. Bottom line is it's no...

    Formula Dynamics 4200 ECM Module

    Just removed from my car prior to sale. You get two settings; I chose fuel efficiency and high torque. Gave me real world 16mpg to 17mpg average over 50,000 enthusiastic miles compared to the 14mpg to 15mpg I was getting before. That's something like £500 of fuel saved, to say nothing of the...

    Windscreen and rear window trims - burgundy or UV damage??

    The plastic / rubber trims round my windscreen and rear window are dark red in colour and have been since I brought the car in 2009. The car is an 03 CC with grey interior but the nicer (in my view) dark burgundy centre console and door trims. They help "warm" the grey, but that's another...

    Airbag Ooops!

    I decided yesterday that I had been looking at bubbling leather on the steering wheel airbag for too long. So I looked up a great how-to here and yesterday evening bolted back in what looked like a very smart and bubble free airbag. The only problem is that this morning, I noticed the red...

    new carpets

    Quick question... Has anyone replaced the base carpet in their car? My car is Netunio (sp?) blue with grey interior. Carpets are now looking tired and I am thinking that blue carpets would "warm" the interior considerably and offset what is is a touch too much grey! Do new carpets cost...

    Winter tyres

    I know this has been covered before, but I am after a set for my 4200 for this winter. I don't want the car to be "beyond use" as it has been for the last two years. Does anyone know what is actually available (in stock) at the moment and what sizes to go for? - I know its better to go for...

    Rear wheel stuck on

    As the title says really. Car is on stands, but O/S rear wheel will not come off the disk/hub. Now given up for the day in disgust. I am sure there must be some obvious method that somebody knows and I will kick myself when I hear it - am I right? Dom

    Anyone in the SW with FD springs on a 4200?

    Is there anyone in the SW - I am in Salisbury - who has fitted the FD springs on a 4200 and would be prepared to give me a quick demo? From what I have heard, this is a must have mod, but I would really value experiencing them. I think that might be the clincher that I need... Dom

    Wanted - spare set of wheels for 4200

    Not sure if I have a hope here, but if they were available for sensible money (I have no idea what that would be), I would love to pick up a second set of wheels so I could put winter tyres on them. Having experienced the 4200 CC in the snow last winter ( I was totally unable to drive from...

    Hello from Wiltshire

    Hi all, Just registered for this fine forum having spent the last year dipping in and out of "another" forum. I have owned a 2003 CC for about a year now and like a fine wine, it keeps getting better all the time. I also like the fact that a few people here are not afraid to do some work...
