The blue RHD 222 4v that was for sale last year…

Odd question but the forum can’t seem to find any threads/posts on it.
Is the new/current owner still on here? Just wondering how the resto is going.

HaydnW was the guy I think you are referring to but doesn't seem to have been here in nearly a year, and I can't tag his handle which perhaps suggests he has moved on.

Maybe this thread is the one you were thinking of? (I googled the search term "sportsmaserati.com 222 4v" as that can be a more useful search tool than the forum search box itself especially with short phrases which the forum search won't accept).

From the photos on that thread, the reg number was K26 NCR. Car remains SORN with no MOT since 2019.

You should be able to tag him @HaydnW

I think he sold it to the current owner; it was on C&SC for a while. If it’s the Haydn I’m thinking of he has an admirable collection of ‘difficult’ Italian cars that are more difficult than Italian cars are normally - I believe he has a 164 Q4, or did, for example…

Did anyone else notice something way more interesting in the background of the Late Brake Show latest?

That’s the ex-London Classic Car Museum, ex-Japan car that Bonhams tried to sell twice but failed due to a lack of documents/ownership problems.
I imagine it’s pretty knackered now.

As it is in the loading bay at EM Rogers, it looks like it’s on the move.

I Know one thing, I'm sick of seeing the same 2.8 Auto Ghibli punted about!

Wonder if the (alleged) leaky diff has been sorted…
