    Alternative parts, what everyone needs to know...

    Maybe it is… I haven’t really examined it, I just presumed it was oxidising as there were bubbles in places that made it look like rust.

    Alternative parts, what everyone needs to know...

    My wing mirror mount on my facelift qpv has oxidised and the black paint is flaking off. Does anyone know if there is an alternative part as I can’t seem to find them available anywhere. Maybe I am being silly though and someone can find one.

    Wet boot :-(

    Ok my boot is wet. Nothing terrible just a little damp and it seems to be coming from the seal by the catch. The carpet on the boot lid seems to sit on top of the inner seal. Is that normal? You can see where the seal is wet and how one of the seals has compressed the carpet and that’s...

    Quattroporte Vs Listed For Sale

    Does make me wonder why it was auctioned here. Seller seemed willing to convert headlight to lhd, although I am not close to the European market at all so not sure how much he would have achieved in Europe. I was surprised it went so high considering it was a lhd car

    Unless you are selling the value doesn’t matter. It only matters when you are buying :-)

    I am hoping prices of SZs and Montreals collapse so I can buy one…

    Spotted qpv gts A3

    Me neither tbh but they had a series 1 106 rallye there and it was one of the first cars I really pinned for. I have also seen an Alfa sz - another car I really want

    Spotted qpv gts A3

    Where are you based Lugos? I am in Wimbledon and keep meaning to go to south side hustle car meet on the common but it seems it always clashes with me taking my son to football. Has anyone been? There was a Ferrari 250 there last week.

    Spotted qpv gts A3

    What are the chances but I was out taking my football this morning but what pulls up behind me with a flash of lights. Yes - another qpv gts in black with a light interior. I was thinking how cool the car looked and then realised that that was what mine looked like - albeit without the light...

    Maserati Insurance

    I am having trouble getting insurers to list the correct car. Most just have it as quattroporte sport gt or s rather than offering a sport gts. Given the price difference between the different models I would prefer the correct model designation on the insurance certificate.

    Quattroporte Vs Listed For Sale

    If someone can tell me where I can buy replacement bits for that rear section in the correct colour that would be great. I do agree it all comes down to expectations, but it’s a car which is over 10 years old in a 4 door format which has quite fragile internal finishes in places. I’m not...

    Quattroporte Vs Listed For Sale

    Not sure this in itself counts as tired in my opinion. The section at the back is really easy to nick and once it’s happened there is no going back.

    Quattroporte Vs Listed For Sale

    Some price cut from £50k I guess when there are 2 on the market with 70k miles for £26k - £30k it makes it difficult to judge if you didn’t know they had been hanging around for a while.

    CAR AUCTIONS

    It does look expensive when compared to the one dicky had in recently at a similar price, but when you compare it to the other maserati results on collecting cars for 4.7 s models which from memory made about £18k it does seem a bit under. I also find it hard to quantify the impact that miles...

    Did anyone see what the qpv gts got to on collecting cars? It seems not to have sold but would be interested in where bidding got to.
