Great cars, my old man has got the Coupe Cambiocorsa - Goes like a rocket.

The suspension is fully adjustable - may be worth taking it into a dealer / specialist and have it properly set up.

It completely transformed his car.

I was just reading Quentin Wilsons column about how a nice Quattroporte is now an easy £20K.

Or did you not want to know that?

Warren, are you bored or something? Or just on a crusade to wind people up with unhelpful comments today?

hehe

I haven't wound anybody up since 1982.

So what's he bought then? what model? I thought he was going to buy an XJST440

Need info and pics.

Followed one of these into work for about half a mile yesterday - looked and sounded fantastic. Good choice - better than the Aston yesbiggrin

Not toooooo bad really. About £600 for a big service at a specialist.
But the sound it makes..... Oh lordy, the sound...... And I thought my old wedge sounded good...
And the way it goes, it's sort of like

Indies must have dropped their prices... It was on my short list before I bought the XKR. I drove a couple and they were wonderful. Couldn't justify the servicing cost compared to the Jag. Does Nick Cartwright do Maserati servicing? He must be just down the road from you?
