James Humberstone at Graypaul Nottingham has been fantastic to deal with really understood us that my wife and I are true petrolheads and this was a big purchase for us and not his usual customer.
Incorprated into the deal was also Car Cover and Factory tours when we are down in Italy on our road trip later in the year.

Very nice! I can't help but read the reg as UGLY which it certainly isn't. Only bad bit on the car which is a shame.

Congratulations Dougie,

You're car looks amazing. Such a nice colour combination.

James is a top bloke. He's a genuine fan of the cars he sells and has been helpful to me on a number of occasions over the past 5 or more years.

Also nice to see he put your car in the 'special' room ready for your collection. :D

Have fun.

Stunning Dougie, looks amazing! The exact same colour combo I'm in the market for.

Coincidently I'm going to Graypaul Notts to look at a similar MC Shift in white on Wednesday. I may just drop your name as a fellow owners club member to James if you don't mind? May help with the negotiating should I decide it's what I want! The car I'm looking at has red leather which really isn't my cup of tea but I'll reserve judgement until I see it I think...

Apologies Bob, never noticed your thread... Yeah I'm not a fan of red leather in general but if any car can carry it off it'll be a Maserati. That white one is probably a touch more than I wanted to spend but I'm not ruling anything out if it's new enough with low mileage, it's all relative. Nuvola have a white one in for £55k but the milage is a tad higher than average at 30k but the price reflects that.

I'm taking the day tomorrow to go look at 3 different GTS' all around the Nottingham area. I've never really seen a GT in the flesh properly, I half glance at one when viewing the new Ghibli a couple months back but this kind of car wasn't really on my radar at the time. With the exception of Youtube vids and a Grancabrio which drives past my way every now and again I've never really heard a GTS either.

Tomorrow will be an exciting day!!
