I'm also up for this, I'll bring the QP.

A beautiful QP at the Pangbourne classic car show this morning.

I've used DMS Automotive before a couple of times. Apparently they can get nearly 350HP and 700NM from the maserati Diesel engine. They also have a rolling road at their offices in Southampton so you can see the improvement as well as feel it when you drive the car.

I had a facelift Ghibli Diesel for a while whilst my QP VI was in for a service. The Ghibli had large wheels which looked fabulous but the ride was very tiring. The QP VI is a much more comfortable car if you travel long distances. Yes it's huge and doesn't fit in any car park bays. However...

Great news if you have an older car as dealers have special pricing for servicing. Not so great if your QP is due its second service. From my three local main dealers the dealer who's getting my business is just under half the highest quote. The two highest were not interested in haggling...

We regularly stay in a lodge just North of Balloch (CH) and frequent these roads. The narrow twisty bit of the A82 along the loch side is due to be widened and straightened, which will mean years of road works. I prefer the A83 over the rest and be thankful for a coffee at the Loch Fyne Oyster...

I've been discussing buying an ex demonstrator facelift QP diesel and trading in my QP diesel which will be two years old in March. The depreciation on mine would be quite alarming if it had been purchased at list. Even compared to what I paid it's quite a drop. Two to three year old QPs are...

We walked in front of his house yesterday at 2pm. There was an ambulance car in his driveway and then a police car arrived. We had been fearing this news all yesterday afternoon and evening. RIP

I also have a lack of traction, especially from a standing start.

I'm a year into my QP VI diesel ownership having covered over 15k miles in that time. It's my daily driver although I only need to use it a few times a week. On my second day of ownership I went to DMS Automotive in Southampton.... A few weeks ago I experienced the back of the latest S Class...

Let me know when you're next over this way. Colin

Eb If you cruise into the car park of the Swan hotel in Streatley my QP is normally parked under the watchful eyes of the receptionists and their CCTV system. Colin

Black Ghibli, sounding fabulous, going across the Thames from Goring to Streatley at lunchtime today.

The black QP on the ferry from Bilbao was us. After nearly 4 weeks in Spain we didn't see another Maserati. The QP drew lots of admiring glances on our travels, much more so than in the UK. Next to us on the ferry were some of the MGs and an amazing open top three wheeler Morgan, the passenger...

Speaking of courtesy cars.... Mine went in for the suspension recall yesterday morning, it was due for collection later today. Half an hour after dropping off the car they called me and said there was another recall item and did I want them to do it at the same time? It would mean me having to...

A blue 16 plate QP on the A322/A329(M) around Bracknell at about 4pm today. Unfortunately I was in my wife's Audi not my QP. My goodness they have road presence, you don't fully appreciate it from the driver's seat.

Two Ghiblis today on a day trip to Brighton. A bright blue one parked on Marine Parade, Brighton and on the way home a white one heading southbound at 18:15 using their GPS speed through the average speed cameras in the roadworks near the Bagshot exit of the M3

I agree the QP VI is a bit more head biased compared to the QPV which is easier on the eye. My one is the slightly less attractive younger sister (Pippa rather than Kate Middleton). I foolishly thought a full manufacturer's warranty would be a comfort however my experience to date is that all...

How the rear space in a QP can be considered adequate is beyond me, everyone who has been in my car always seem to comment on how much room there is in the back amongst other things. I thought the article was as to be expected from a mainstream magazine. If you get the QP and Maserati (Heart...

Thank you for the warm welcome. Yes it's enormous and me trying to find somewhere I am happy to park the car and more importantly it fits, drives Mrs CJC mad. Hopefully my attempt to upload a picture has worked, Outside a restaurant a young chap called it "Full mafia hitman spec." It's a...
