Wow that escalated quickly!!!
The car wasn't sorted originally? I though it was looked after very well with some choice mods when I went in it at Modena and ragged the tits off it on the track!
"Stretched it's legs" you surely mean?

You guys really need to look at you attitudes. The car in question is a very well known and no standard example. A Maserati should be left as it was the day it left the factory.
This vehicle was classed as a total loss and has had a vast amount of modification and should be priced accordingly.

The is a massive difference of opinion on CAT cars.
A majority of the trade....yes a MAJORITY will not touch a CAT car with a barge pole full stop. They will only deal in clean non-CAT cars. That is a FACT. The risks & unknowns are too high & there are plenty of non-CAT cars out there.
Would I but a CAT car? No....Never. Why would I when there are plenty of non-CAT cars out there. Some insurers won't insure them at all. Some will use it as an excuse to try to charge a premium.
If the car is not substantially cheaper it is not worth the hassle or potential issues in my book. Each to their own but I just don't see the point.
Even if my opinion is wrong or misguided it makes little difference. Plenty of others think the same so you have taken a comparatively small marketplace to sell into & made it smaller. These kind of cars are often hard to sell at the best of times & CAT cars make it even harder to shift them.
Phil, imagine if yours was a CAT car?!

If I'd have known it was a cat car when pulling a G in it I might have thought otherwise
Only joking Arnie! Good luck with the sale....
