It's a fair price considering its condition. I do like the colour, how bad was the rust?

What are you lpoking for, manual or auto?

After having a manual last time I would go for an auto if purchasing again.

The rust was pretty bad actually. 3 or 4 areas with the offside rear needing metal work.

The interior which was described as " fab" had a tear on the side of the transmission tunnel.

However at under £7K I would have slowly brought this one up to scratch.

I definitely want an Auto, I think it suits the character of the car !

I am not searching for my dream Maserati. If I had fewer cars than currently I would think about looking for an immaculate, less than 30K Miles, 1 owner from new etc etc.. That's not what I am after with this particular purchase.

Please hurry up though as my girlfriend comes back next Saturday and then its going to be a bit harder to go out and buy a Maserati as a play thing. :eek:

Looks good in those pics - he should've updated his advert after he washed it, instead of leaving the one sof it looking mucky and uncared for!

Looks lovely in the pictures but then most cars will when washed and cleaned...Very rare red that one and she does look lovely on the Kahn wheels which I'm not a fan of usually..

I concur. A fantastic combo apart from the steering wheel and dash top; they should be black IMO. However, I don't like the bunch-of-banana wheels although they do match the banana shaped tail lights.
