That's typical Audi mileage, not Maserati mileage! Just shows they WILL do that, and there's just no reason they shouldn't.

Makes a mockery of the 'over 50k and they are worthless', argument.

Completely agree. Just lobbed mine to Luton and back this afternoon. Trying to work out why it seemed a tad laid back on the way back, and realised that I'd take it out of sport :(

Still goes like stink :) Coming up on 89k

What about the price...for a few K more you can get one with say 60k on the clock.

Well said Drew.
These QP's well maintained are solid high mileage performers. I'm on 78K now and using it as my daily driver. My main dealer engineer tells me that he's seen a number of 100k + QP's on regular maintenance and known issues looking great and running really well. Could be a good entry price Mas for someone who takes care with an inspection but is realistic about what £11k buys you.

This is true - on that basis £11k is overpriced, but as always, that's just the place where negotiations start. Good luck to the seller if he can get that, but I suspect it could be had for under £10k without too much pushing. That's an apparently working QP for four-figures. A lot of car... Just so long as the buyer realises it doesn't have Golf running costs....

Comical advert, mentioning this as the trade price. If it had done 100,000 miles less, the trade price would be about this!

Overpriced for me by a few k.

Makes our 36k mile 1 owner 3200 for 7k look a right bargain!

I does feel like a 7/8k car rockits but good luck to them.....There is one with 100k on the clock for the same sort of money as well.

Utter bargain! A specialist dealer would be asking around the £15k mark for a one owner 3200 with that few miles. There can't be many (if any) 1 owner cars left.

As for this QP, given that it has known problems and some missing history, if you tried to part ex it at a main dealer for a more modern version, you'd do very well to get £6k for it.

:thumb1::thumb1:Considering it is an 06 Sport GT that has clearly been a daily driver with most sh in a popular colour combo I can't see anyone getting one cheaper. The 04 one for sale is the mk 1 standard QP which is totally different imo. Good warranty and it could be a bargain. 140k motorway miles is nothing nowadays. I've done 4k so far in the ff and it's only 5 weeks old..........any offer over 11k considered.......

I agree on the 3200, but not on the QP - I'm sure I could get £6k at a main dealer for a bag of crisps... I've recently seen £8.5k come off the price of a Maser bought from the MD with absolutely nothing but a smile in exchange.

Great to see them being used so well, bodes well for their longevity and so unlike Maseratis of the past
