Fantastic car. Good choice. Good luck! Mine is also from Nuvola, by the way, and I recommend them highly. Nareman is a good man - true to his word and of exacting standards. Others around here of equal repute are Dicky Grace (Richard Grace cars) and Bowker Maserati.
Incidentally, my car's on around 33k miles and clutch wear is ~60%. Could start slipping in 10k miles or 20k. Who knows.
Another thing, these cars are pretty manageable around town, in my opinion. Biggest issue is the size - same footprint as a Disco. They're buggers if you want to park / un-park on a hill but you get used to it soon enough. They can be total ****s when cold but a strange piece of black magic involves slowly pressing the accelerator to the floor a few times before starting. Seems to avoid jerkiness and looking a prat on a cold engine.
Happy hunting!
