Great minds Geo ;)

I have always used Transwave inverters for this, you can get them in a range of sizes, the last one I had was a 15 hp rotary and cost me around £1200 (I ran a complete polishing shop off it when we had issues with our 3 Phase supply) but you can pick up a couple of Hp for a lot lot less

First time I have seen this, it’s brilliant. Thanks for sharing, it fixes the one part of the GT that I had convinced myself could be ’lived with’

I did get a £12.5k corporations tax right down the first year, as well as the cheap company car tax, so the blow has been reduce, and my GFV is £40k at three years so am somewhat protected, but when I bought it the two year GFV was about £50k so it looks like they might have been a little...

Talking about Mr JWW, he has done a sneak peak of Caffine and Machine, fast forward to about three minutes in

What you need to do, is to be foolish enough to first buy Volvo XC90 T8 for £76K then two years later it will be worth £43k. After that the depreciation of a second hand Maserati looks bloody marvellous ;). Do correct me if I am wrong, but a 15/16 GTS looks like it will depreciate around £5k a...

Hi Oliver, do you mind me asking you what came up in the inspection? the more I read but the more I want one but the pickier I am getting about buying finding the right specification, age, mileage etc . It would be good to know what potential hazards to look for.

Stamp duty always gets in the way, regardless of the amount ;)

It is a great car, but a bit lacking in personality. For interior fit and finish it is up there with RR and you can get 17 to 19 miles on a full charge, and if like me you are able to plug it in at home and at work you can live on very little petrol. For example, my MPG to day was 965. But on a...

It was a surprise to me, but on the bright side, it makes buying a Maserati look almost sensible ;-)

The plus side to PCP Is the protection from depreciation. My current daily is a Volvo XC90 T8 (plug in hybrid) £74k new over three years the GRV is £40k. It is 23 months old and its current values at £43k. By the time it goes back it would have depreciated to about £33k leaving Volvo to take a...

£5k depreciation sounsl like a dream, just found out my 2016 Volvo XC 90 hybrid has lost £30k over 24 months hence wiseing up and getting a Maserati being sensible I obovously want to pay the right money for the right car, a three year old car that has lost 1/2 of its value seems right for me...

I also quite like this one, still ticks all of the boxes, but not sure about the dealer. Might have to take a drive during the week...

Thanks, I think I will wait and have a good look at all the specks, I have wanted one for years, before having to act like an grown up I have had a S5, 911 and a DB9, all where a sper of the moment purchase and luckily where all good cars. But I have only seen two GT’s and driven one briefly.

Sorry Oliver, one more question than I will stop bothering you. How fluid is the GT market, how often are new cars coming up for sale. If I pass on this Grey one, what's the likelihood of another grey on cream 2013/14 low mileage in coming to the market over the next six months? Thanks

Thanks Oliver, thanks for the advice it is very much appreciated. Originally I wanted carbon, but after looking at white on black, I thought the carbon took from the lines, but this may be because I fell in love with the grey one. I think I need to see some more before I commit. One thought, is...

Thanks, Oliver, for the last 7 year I have been paying my dues driving seven-seaters. Now I want something special for around £50k. I will be using it daily, and will still be doing the school run every morning, which means sitting in traffic for half an hour. Hence thinking an auto would be...

Hi, could I ask if you mean MC shifts are in the doldrums of GT in general, I have been looking at buying this https://www.sytner.co.uk/sytner-select/car-search/9075393-1112238-maserati-gran-turismo-v8-sport-2dr-mc-auto-shift/ but it is only the second car I have looked at. I don’t mind waiting...
