    Heated seat issue

    So I bought my 2014 Granturismo a few months ago and I have this minor issue. On start up and for around 5 mins the heated seats are on even though the dial to side of seat is at zero as is the indicator on the dash. Usually the seats cool down after a few mins, but still a bit annoying. Anyone...

    SM Apple CarPlay / Android Auto

    Anybody out there that knows the cost? A chap on the maserati FB page is ordering a bunch of Gen 2 units + aircon unit for £1,400. Hence was interested to know this cost as a comparison.

    Carbon fibre bits, why??

    Does your car have lots of carbon? Dont think so. I did see a few cars on sale that were loaded with the full assortment of carbon fibre interior and exterior bits, but had zero interest to be honest.

    Carbon fibre bits, why??

    Ive just bought a maserati GT very recently having had an Aston for 8 years. So still relatively new to the brand.

    Newbie, looking at Granturismos, £35-50k budget

    Check out this very similar thread I posted a few weeks back. I ended up going for a 2014 sport with 30k miles, 1 owner and full maser history for £42k. Didnt want to get newer and take a big depreciation hit. Dont think it made sense spending 60k just to get better infotainmemt, and running...

    Great shout, and thats exactly what I just did and got the ceramic coat at half price. Colour is staying the same post refurb. Thanks everyone, much appreciated.

    Got the car, please help with wheel colour

    Please be brutally honest. I value everyones opinions here. I guess the other question would be if I eventually sell the alloys, what colour would be most sought after. Seen so many black alloys, thus thought they were quite popular and easier to sell?

    lol, looks like I should have negotiated something other than a wheel colour change. What if not black but just a bit darker? Eventually I think I will switch to the MC design wheels, but wanted them to look nice in the interim.
