I sold my Quattroporte V two years ago, but I am a Maserati owner again.
I have been chasing this particular Indy for a few years and made and offer about four years ago, but we couldn't reach a deal. Sadly the owner is now in ill health and I was approached by him to see if I was still interested. we chatted and he accepted a more realistic offer. The problem was that the car was stuck in the back corner of an outbuilding with other cars around it and I could never get in close enough to see the thing.
On Saturday we went to collect it, and thanks to a few mates that were prepared to get down and dirty, we were able to extract the car. It was a massive undertaking - every car moved needed its tyres pumped, and luckily most took air. My mate Bruce brought along tyre jacks, which were a life saver.
