The way the side skirts are hanging I'd suggest that it has had a bit of a whack, which would account for the bonnet.

not sure about the carbon bonnet on a white car but that's personal. Cat n? new cat? I'm pretty sure that those wheels are not forged. Guess they will have paid between 40 and 45 for it....

It says in the blurb that it has a Cat N marker, bonnet, bumper and headlight. It is a lot of car for the money

Shame they didn't proof read the ad: "R&W are proud to offer this stunning Maserati Grand truism Stradale model..."

Geoff's right about the skirts - they're on the pis5.

Incorrect headlights, worn switches, no badge on the back, ridiculous carbon bonnet from China, poor panel fit. Need we go on? I wouldn’t go near it.

It was for sale 2 years ago for £55k and up for a year. It was listed then as a cat D after a front end smash. Wrong headlights off a GT or GTS and the aftermarket bonnet that looks horrendous and it was obviously much cheaper than the £9k correct one.

Ah yes remember it Matt......I didn't look at all the pictures and didn't see thecarbon bonnet. It's not the one they sold around 6 months ago though as that was all white. Better off going for the other two seater for sale at 54k.

The Strad has clear trims not amber. It also had the full decal set and a private plate of MAMA or something.

The easier question may be would you ever buy a car from R&W? Most of their stock has a fairly dubious history. Nothing wrong in that and their business model but do you believe they have access to decent repairers that would turn a sow's ear into a silk purse?

I liked it apart from it being 2 seats and that bonnet.
And the spoiler
And all the comments here.

And, of course, I don't have the money :D

You also have to ask yourself, if they scrimped on the items you can see, what lies beneath?

Correct headlights are £2k each and the correct bonnet is £4k, carbon one £11.5k

Replacing like for like parts, thats £8k, add that to the purchase price and your at £58k and its still a cat D inspected....the price of one that has not been Cat'd
