    Maseratis - Spotted

    We saw a Ghibli earlier. The nippers' comment was "that Maserati sounds like a Mercedes, not like a Maserati. That's not good" Head screwed on the right way.

    Maseratis - Spotted

    I avoided looking at the front, it would have been too painful.

    Maseratis - Spotted

    This poor QP didn't deserve being cross-dressed into a Rolls.

    The good morning thread

    Hmmm, the pleasant coffee under a shady tree in the garden is going to turn into an unpleasant tube journey to The City, but that's what pays for the garden I guess, so might as well try to enjoy both. Have a good morning all!

    New GranSport...!

    But it's just a trim level for the QP6. "For individuals of a sporting disposition who want their Quattroporte to reflect their more athletic lifestyles, there is the highly distinctive and dramatic GranSport trim"...

    A wager...

    It's still so much "up in the air" with so many questions yet to be answered. - Can the PM invoke article 50 without a vote in the commons? We don't have a written constitution just conventions so it's down to interpretation and legal advice and we all know that's been so very reliable in...

    A wager...

    Every bet I've had with myself has been wrong for three weeks now, but...I'll go with immediate pruning of the conservative ranks then an election as soon as possible to get a mandate for herself. Brexit put before the commons for a vote as soon as possible after that so she can get rid of that...

    Morning all. Nipper dropped off, now for a day WFH and moving furniture around. Looks like summer's here (checks again)...looks like a cool cloudy day, perfect for some heavy lifting. Hoping to get the projector hooked up and plumbed in to a TV feed this weekend, it's a busy one for sports.

    Morning, all. WFH so alternating head down and concentrating with Wimbledon throughout the day. Newton, glad to hear you're going to be Maserati'd up again, every faith you'll make the best decision and can't wait to see the result. You're over my neck of the woods, ping me if you get time for...

    Good morning all. Half a day on site then an afternoon with the nipper. Can't understand why I live in a place where it's still march in July. Need some warm weather soon.

    Selling my 3200

    Spent many comfortable hours in this lovely car for the Le Mans weekend. Beautifully sorted, a pleasure to be in and the few times the weather let Dave be a tad heavy footed it made progress in a very satisfying way.

    As of next Sunday I have garden in London and I'm looking forward to pottering in it. And to the apples in Autumn. Might need to find a steam cleaner, the pathways are a sad dark green at the moment.

    Morning all. Hope the call was worth it Chris. WFH too then picking up a coughing and poorly nipper so no camping this weekend. Spend a few minutes remembering the brave, and not forgetting those who sent so many for so little.

    Good morning, a day off and a visit to the nipper's new school. Under orders to look "presentable" whatever that means.

    The good morning thread

    Nearly. I'm avoiding the 1.9l engine, looking at the later 2.0l or petrol only (maybe a 2.4l diesel). A 3.0 V6 would be ideal [emoji6]

    Afternoon. Went to size up the 159 yesterday. Looks good, either saloon or sportswagon will suit (must admit I prefer the shape of the wagon!). No hurry so I'll start looking out for a tan interior ti in good condition...rare apparently.
