Hi, on start up today I got some steam coming up from the left hand side of the engine compartment, I opened the bonnet and checked around. It was coming from down infront of the passenger footwell area. After a few minutes it went away, wasn't sure if just condensation. Also a funny smell...

Hi, is everybody changing these at the recommended four year interval? Its basically a filter box that sits on top of the fuel tank and to get to it you have to remove the boot liner/trim and open a metal access hatch. When I discussed it with some technicians(at main dealer) it sounds like its...

What's the consensus on the best tyres for the QP with 19 inch wheels? Currently I have P Zero's but they do tend to tramline a little and can give a kick on white lines. My car is going in for the tie rod recall which apparently includes a full geo set up so as they are a little worn will get...

Hi, today I've received 2 emails, one saying its from sportsalfa.com , the other sportslancia.com both stating that somebody has tried to log in to my account and had five failed attempts. Both emails gave a different IP address as a source for the attempts. I've never joined either of...

Hi, passed by the Trafford Center (Manchester) tonight and they have a stand just outside John Lewis with a Ghibli and Quattroporte on display. Had a long chat with the lady on the stand and had a good look around. My impressions? The new cars don't have that handmade feel of the previous...

I seem to be seeing more and more of these and every time I do I wonder what entered the head of the person who bought it. The rear 1/3 of the car is the most ugly I've seen , it looks like an elephant sat on the boot. Do Audi have good "offers" on or what? At 40k plus there are many options...

Found this , yuck..

Hi, what a mess PH have made of the FML forum and despite a multitude of complaints the mods have gone all quiet and not accept they've cocked up. Simon

Hi, went to put the QP on its trickle charger today and it wouldn't open with the key fob. Opened the door manually (key) and all dead, not even the LED's on the doors were working. Battery is in the boot of course. Following a quick check on youtube opened the boot. Then alarm starts going...

Anybody else about to get this? I've not preordered so was thinking of queuing tonight. Offered to drop the wife at Tesco's at 10pm and said I'd go back at midnight but she turned the offer down.

Over 1000 QP V's sold in the UK and only 22 for sale on PH? Pretty good going.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSEV1sDCwVM Apparently in India where that car must have cost 400k or so. The kid driving it looks about 9 years old and does pretty well.

Hi, the battery on my QP has died and I need to swap it out for a new one. Has anyone here done this before as I was wondering if you need to remove the boot trim to get the battery out. The access hole seems a bit tight and though it might be easier to remove the full trim so nothing gets...

Had a quick look in this weeks Autocar, they had a head to head with the new QP vs Jag XJ. Maser only got 3.5 stars (as usual for Autoclaptrap), they described the interior as being 'ordinary'. Also said the ride wasn't very good. Didn't get a chance to read it all, was over 4 pages or so. The...

With an Enzo replacement imminent and official teaser pics doing the rounds are we to expect a MC12 replacement in a year or so's time? The MC12 was aimed at the GT1 racing series which it dominated for around 5 years, I wonder/hope that a successor will be produced to return to that series?

The magazine which as far as I can see has been quite poor in its coverage of Maserati has in its paper edition an airbrushed pic and claim that Maserati are to do a version of the Alfa 4C etc etc. Not heard this before and somehow doubt it as it would step on Ferrari's toes so probably just...

These eurocylinder locks can be useless. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ERVrC3hOn0 Already upgraded to antisnap locks.

How are we going to refer to the outgoing QP without causing confusion? QP V (maybe confuses people who didn't know there was a I,II,III,IV) QP 2003-2012 model ( a bit long winded) QP NA QP 4.2/4.7 ???? any suggestions/preferences?
