Hi folks,
I joined up a few days ago so thought I'd poke my nose round the door here and say hello.... a long time fan of all things Italian, particularly Maserati, Alfa and Lamborghini, currently own an Alfa as my daily hack but am considering the ins and outs of Maser ownership at some point in the future. Also have a couple of classics in the shape of a '60s Cooper S and a '70s Jaaaag XJ6 (talk about chalk and cheese).
Over the past few days I've been delving fairly deeply into the 'general chat' and '3200 & 4200' threads trying to pick up some tips and I have to say what a decent bunch you Maser owners are, there doesn't appear to be an ounce of argie-bargie anywhere, unlike some other car forums I frequent. There is definitely something 'different' about Maseratis and the people who have a passion for them - vive le wotsit and all that!
Looking forward to learning more as I delve deeper into the forum archive and with a bit of luck might find myself piloting a Maserati, hopefully sooner rather than later. I know I'll have to have a serious reshuffle of my current cars / priorities, but the thought of stepping into a 3200, 4200 or (at a stretch) even a Gransport at some point is already doing strange things to my car mojo. A couple of years ago a mate and I stood utterly spellbound looking at the Maserati Club display at the NEC Classic Car Show, the cars on show that weekend were stunning in the flesh, if any of those car's owners are on here then a big 'thankyou' wafts its way in your direction for showing off such magnificent machinery, which a lot of folk would otherwise never get to see. I still look at the photos I took that weekend and the old ticker skips a beat everytime...!
Cheers,
Nidge ;O)
