Good value GS at ADG

[BuckRog64]

Those nice gentlemen at ADG have a reasonably well exercised GS in stock for only £20k. Don't think I've seen one with a respectable dealer at that price before.

I'm not normally a fan of the tech cloth but I think the trim combines well with the grigio paint. Might be a nice car for someone looking for value.

Looks great value, and I actually quite like that colour combo as well. And at that price and mileage it could make a good Maserati to use without worrying about steep depreciation.

I really like that interior too and a new clutch at Autoshield 9000 miles ago. Does beg the question why it’s that price, is it just the mileage?

Very, very nice, missing services, in 07, 08, 12, 16, which wouldn't worry me but will the purists, might explain the price.

I suspect it's a combination of mileage, time of year and a difficult market for sellers right now.

Better history than most advertised with fsh. Wouldn't bother me either. Looks like it's driven 7k miles in the last year, which is a sign of a healthy car.
If anyone is seriously interested ADG are about 20 miles from me so I could possibly give it an initial viewing for them.

Not normally a fan of the GS but I like that, and 70k is not stellar

Well, yes and no. It’s a difficult time if you’ve got a black or silver car - of the eight cars on Auto Trader, six are black, the other two are silver. However, if a red or Blu Med car comes on sale it usually goes pretty quickly. I suppose that can be explained by the changing nature of the GS from everyday car to weekend modern classic - if you’re going to stick £20k+ into an Italian exotic for the weekend, a more exuberant colour is preferred. Whereas back when they were new and everyday cars, a more subtle hue was desirable. It’s a similar case with Aston DB9s/V8 Vantages, according to an Aston dealer I spoke to. A yellow Vantage is gold - yellow - dust...
And Blu Med is utterly gorgeous, and the Top Gear review colour...

It’s been up for sale for a bit. And has now been reduced to 20k.
Was wondering if I could stretch to it for Le Mans. But have too much to pay out for business wise.
It’s in my favourite Maser colour as well, no not JRG, Grigio Nuvolari.

 

[Wattie]

Like that and very good value for someone.

 

[Navcorr]

Very nice. Attractive interior too. Rather subtle compared to the full fat ox blood.

Richard Grace quickly sold two blu med GSs last summer but the one he got back hasn't been snapped up second time round.

Links expire, so it seems helpful to provide a screenshot.

That tech cloth is weird shiny..and I suspect it will go pink as it ages !

The one still on sale now is Blu Nettuno. It doesn’t photograph well (I did an Ads on Test on a similar car at Giallo last year, and it took several attempts) but looks stunning in the flesh.
Blu Med is lighter, and more obviously metallic in pictures. A purveyor of Chelsea tractors was selling the last one I saw on the open market (it was discussed here) and that was gone within a matter of weeks, late last year if I remember correctly.

99.9% of the time I can’t stand two tone leather seats, to my eyes it just looks like they’ve run out of one colour half way through the trim.... However this is genuinely the first time I’ve ever thought it looks absolutely superb.

That being said it’s a Maserati, it’s pretty difficult to make look less than bloody lovely.

Was wondering if I could stretch to it for Le Mans.

Do it. Do it now.

 

[boomerang]

Beautiful car, don't understand those low prices though!
Here on the main land Gransport prices are still firm, nowhere your levels for sure.
GT's still depreciating a little, but not that much.
What is happening in the UK guys?
Is it the fear of Brexit-trouble, the smaller rhd market, future environment measures?

If I knew I wouldn't have any more sizeable bills coming in, then I would.
However, I've learnt over the last few months that patent lawyers cost a fortune as do software experts and test facilities.
I'll keep my hand in my pockets for a bit longer.

Makes this one that's being offered to me for under £8,000 with 48,000 miles on the clock look like a joke- only thing is that its in Kuwait

I think I would still be tempted at 8K.
Drive it back what an Adventure.
I would be up for that.
