Hello all – Modern Classics is in need of a Maserati GranSport for a forthcoming issue of the magazine. This request is a big ask, and suits cars for which mileage isn't a concern – or letting a journalist (me, in this case) borrow it for a few days – given the nature of this particular feature (more on that later, though for competition reasons I can't go into too much detail here). This would be ideal for a dealer car, if anyone's reading.
We're looking to borrow the car for a total of three days from Sunday November 5th to Tuesday November 6th. I'd pick the car up on the Sunday (or earlier if preferred) and return it on the 7th, and we'd clean it before we handed it back. It would be fully insured by our publisher for the entirety of its time with us.
Given the nature of the season we're trying to go for a bold blue colour to really stand out against the dark greys and greens of autumn – so while we've had offers of fantastic grey/black cars, I'm afraid in this instance we're going to have to say no. If you'd like to appear in the magazine's Your Drives section we can do that.
The final thing to add is that the starting point for the feature is Manchester, and the shoot itself would add around 200-250 miles. Ideally a local car to Manchester would be ideal as it would keep the mileage getting to the photoshoot down. Those wanting firmer details, please feel free to PM this account or the nayf account on here, just let us know which below!
If a dealer/specialist lends us a car we're more than happy to provide a big thankyou in the mag.
This is a big ask, I know, but trust us this will be worth it!
Thanks,
Nathan Chadwick
