It has been discussed before, there is room for negotiation on the price, been for sale for a good 2 months.

Thats a lovely car, the colour combo really works for me.

Many shy away from Red Maseratis, cant see why personally.

I would rather red than many dull colours if u drive a gransport there is no place to hide no matter what colour!

Acorn are owned by my exes brother....i know them well....
They are 150 metres from my house....
What i will say is they dont specialise in these cars, all they do is golfs and bread butter cars.....years ago the had a grey 4200 that i went to look at with a guy from MF and they were terrible, even for an old friend like me....no finance, no warranty, no keys, no logbook, history was missing.....put me off them.....

Now ive seen this red one as i walked by and it looks lovely....dont know bout paying a premium for trade as with them its like buying private.....

Have a look at the GS threads on here as one of us has already been to see this car and said it was not in the best of condition paint wise when they saw it...That may have been sorted now..........I sure the person who say it will be along soon to give you their imoression of this car.......Nice combination though.

some work like wheels need doing, not the best paintwork, but good wax can sort it.....

little overpriced with them not being a specialist but if they sort out those little things then not bad at all...low miles, and a desirable interior....

have not seen service history so that could be an issue as the last one they had was a dog.......
