Exciting times, get your full refund and buy the sorted one from @UlstermanAbroad - luckily a free learning curve, not many people can have that luxury.
You have made the right choice. There is no reason to have to deal with the pain and costs of a poorly looked after car when there are many to be found. Just look at them first and get a ppi. If it's a good one then the 14 day return under dsr won't be necessary.So I have sent the request to collect the car and refund the purchase price.
I suspect this will not go smoothly,
Look, drive, if it is the one, then arrange for local indie to do ppi either by visiting site or ideally getting it to them so it can go onto ramps. Any good dealer will allow an inspection if they are genuine. If they don't run away.And then ill report them for MOT fraud. BTW not driving it since i discovered the headlight is not secured.
if you mean a PPI as a pre purchase inspection, please enlighten me how to do that before buying the car?
Hello fello Maseratites....
I am very excitedly writing this post, as the new owner of a 2008 Granturismo. The car is being delivered to my work on Thursday and I can't wait.
I've made a stab in the dark purchase for a car I've never seen in the flesh and I mean any Maserati, and I've only ever seen one semi up close.
So, here is the expected car:
My daily car is a 2010 Renault Megane RS Cup. It's been extensively modified for track use and vibrates like a vibrating thing
You would think I have a thing for Renault, but the white one is Mrs Spoon's.
The Megane's struggle to get into the gym, I mean garage, so I'm going to have to get a single large garage door fitted if I want to keep this car inside. That said, this being my first "proper" car, I'm happy for it to sit on the drive shouting here I am.
I'm really into drives through Wales and other twisty orientated routes and time on track for the enthusiastic stuff.
Nice to meet you all so to speak.
Mr Spoon
You may want to read the previous xx pages or get the gist from #229Hi Mr Spoon, we are in the same camp, I picked up my first Maserati GT S yesterday in Edinburgh and drove it over 300 miles back home to Newbury. The best day of my life, after the birth of our three children and my wedding day of course!
How are you getting on with yours? I am still getting to grips with the power, staying in auto for the time being.
F**k me. When I read 'we are in the same camp' my heart sank. I thought we had another lemon.Hi Mr Spoon, we are in the same camp, I picked up my first Maserati GT S yesterday in Edinburgh and drove it over 300 miles back home to Newbury.

Spoons, you have made the biggest splash upon joining this forum, of anyone that I've seen join in the last few years.
You shall go down in legend

Clearly not an easy decision (these are emotional purchases!), but the right one.So I have sent the request to collect the car and refund the purchase price.
