Hello all,

This is my first post on this forum and also my first Maserati purchase!
Picking up my new car on Friday and I can't wait!
I've loved the mc stradale ever since I saw one at brooklands autoitalia show back in 2011/12.
Now finally I have managed to do some shuffling to realise the dream.
Looking forward to coming to a few events this summer in her.

Cheers tom.

Welcome Tom and what a great introduction to the brand! Get it to Auto Italia in April then!

Athol's car has certainly gone from Dicky's website, so assume it is this one. He wanted it sold by the end of Jan, so the timing is good as well.

Congrats on the new toy. Enjoy!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!

Yeah roll on Friday that's all I can say!!
The one I went for was the one for sale at GC motors Harrogate.
White with the carbon bits exterior and interior.
Anyone know the car and previous owner?

Thanks tom.

A big warm welcome and what a car you have bought and that one looked good value compared to the others for sale. 10k cheaper than the white one Dick Lovett has. Well done on your purchase.

I may be wrong but I think the car had the graphics on the side but they removed them as it wasn't selling with them on. May be wrong though and could be a different car.

Very nice - I don't know the car but it does have some lovely carbon options both in & out plus the MC pedals - roll on Friday indeed & have fun!

Welcome, and sounds like you may have bought a very nice car! Of course, I may be biased ... :)

I managed to get him down a little on the price, was hard work though!
Yeah the car did have the graphics down the side, he said they were starting to peel in places so they took them off.
I like them both with and without the graphics.
Also the car has a leather steering wheel, and the alacantara head lining.
I wanted white with the carbon bits so I'm very happy!

I agree...I also like them with or without the graphics......Stradale has to have carbon inside for me to as it just adds to that special feeling.....and those seats are to die for.
