So how did you get on, maser3200gt?

maserati3200gt,

You said you were having your GranSport test drive on Wednesday. Success or not?

The salesman probably hasn't managed to get him out of it yet

Hi McNab
its was great fun!
much more responsive than my 3200 gt ! and I thought that was great !!!
what a laugh !
I was really tempted to place the order but I have decided to keep my 3200gt and continue with the Bentley GT.

Best of both worlds (-;

So you're going to have a Maserati AND a Bentley?

That's just greedy

I know you were also interested in the F430, but did you consider a DB9 at all?

All things are relative, but I see quite a few Bentley GTs in Guildford (we get a great view of the one-way system from the office). It's only my personal opinion, but I think they look best in dark colours (black's best). They also have amazing road-presence. I also prefer the "multi-spoke" alloys as opposed to the 5-spoke jobbies. Even better would be the 20" ones now available as part of the Mulliner bits 'n pieces. What colour are you going for?

You must post a pic of the Bentley when you get it - I don't think there's been one on PH yet (apologies to Bentley GT owners if I'm wrong).

Ive gone for Diamond Black (Metallic) with Magnolia for the Main Hide.
Secondary Hide will be Beluga (e.g Dashboard )
Piano Black Veneer.

5 Spoke Alloys.

Cant Wait !
Waiting list is 18 months though so Pics may take a while ! unless I get bumped up the list (please mr Claus !!!)

Twin Turbo - I was not prepared to wait for approx 3 years for the 430 / or pay a premium so i felt this was the best option for me.

The DB9 looks great but I personally dont like the back of them (Just my humble opinion)
So after experiencing the Bentley it felt right and as with the 3200GT its a car I never thought I would own ! And as with the 3200GT the experience made me buy the car there and then.

P.S (Ive gone for the 5 spoke wheels)

Happy Xmas to you guys as well - Hope you have a great time over the the next week .

[Twin Turbo]

Blimey, you've got to wait 18mths? I'm sure it'll be well worth it.

Have a great Christmas

[maserati3200gt]

And to you mate -

have a good one .

P.S Anyone taking advantage of the open roads today !?

I am !

Blimey I didnt realise there was an 18 month wait on a Bentley GT...........there are quiet a few nearly new ones on the market, under 10000 miles...........

[maserati3200gt]

Thats what I was quoted upon placing the order but I was told this is just a guideline.

Making 5,000 a year the wait may be reduced according to Bentley.
