Well after two years of owning my 4200 I have just had its second MOT and it passed again without a single item requiring attention, who says Maserati are expensive to look after, in two years it has cost me £1400. As a treat she is getting some Anthrasite wheels this week and having door mirrors respayed. Pics to follow shortly. Now I have posted this the car will probably fall apart next week!

Apart from an F1 pump on the 4200 ( in 5 years) and a clutch on the GS ( in 3 years ) my experiences have been pretty much the same excepting the tinsle and upgrading bits , basic maintence has been a very enjoyable experience

I had a clutch go pop on the GS, but apart from that (Maserati paid half) I am trying to remember anything that went wrong?

The biggest issue was people kept bumping me at roundabouts, but thats hardly the cars fault.

Think I replaced the handbrake shoes. All the other money I spent on her was fettling, mods etc.

Great news Andrew!
