My Copart Specials - BMW 420d & Maserati Gransport
Discussion
Managed to do a few things today… removed the bumper and headlights, disassembled the broken headlight and the spare one I bought off ebay to make a blue one.
The airbox is broken so bought the Trofeo K&N intake arrangement as a replacement.
Still needs a wash…!

Close to this deadline, maybe you were pulling all our PH legs!!
Did this once with the guys off the sportsmaserati.com forum a number of years ago, great bunch of guys, if you join say Parisien sent you!
Great to see one of the most underrated cars of the last 20 years being saved, excellent!

Thanks guys!
The little on my shoulder is wondering if I should take a car I barely know to a trip to Le Mans.
On my other shoulder, the little is begging me to get it stickered up
Noticed that the coolant dropped 1cm in the expansion tank in pretty much 1 hour drive, how concern would you be? (The fuel tank dropped 1/4 in the same hour)

Park it somewhere dry overnight so hopefully you can see the source of any possible leak. If that doesn't work take enough coolant to get 1cm back in the expansion tank for every hour!
Fuel tank just needs a credit card.
I’m more at rest today, took the car into work (62 mile journey), topped it to the mark (1st photo), got to work and checked upon arrival, it was 1cm above (while hot) and once cooled down it returned to the original level!Fuel tank just needs a credit card.
May have been a dried up o-ring or something? Seems good!
Will get the Le Mans stickers on now;)

Good work - any worries on the way or was it all plain sailing as far as the car went?
Thanks! Pretty much plain sailing, 3 stops on the way for a coffee and checking over. No issues at all!Delivered 18.5 MPG too, without trying hard!
Ran out of time to put the stickers on, might do it tonight, better late than never!
