Mosi!!!

[SIR MP]

YOU KNOW THE BIT AT THE TOP THAT SAYS SPOTTED WELL GUESS WHAT ?

[Mosi]

Mine is slate grey (dark)...some think it looks black

I am on the A41 around there quite a bit, so could have been me

Mosi,

How is the car going? I'm still waiting for my December production car (cough, cough)to be built No doubt you'll have sold yours long before mine even arrives

[Mosi]

Its going well thanks. The car doesnt get my blood racing, but its a very accomplished GT cruiser.

- FAR better build quality than any other Maser I have experienced (its up there with Germanic finish/quality)
- Achingly beautiful car that gets a LOT of compliments/admiration (more so than my Murci, which surprises me)
- Proper 4 seater (unlike any other 2+2 GT car I can think of), so it doubles up great as a family car
- Frugal (I'm getting 20mpg average out of it, and I dont hang about with the right foot)
- Great long distance cruising weapon (I've done two Bucks/Cheshire runs in it in the last two weeks - loaded with family/luggage etc, and its been a joy)

You cant really hustle it down the lanes, but then its not designed to be that sort of car anyway.

It's good to know it's been positive thus far. I had to laugh at the idea of 20mpg being frugal but I know what you mean I haven't even driven one yet and despite having had the car on order for over 5 months now, the supplying dealer didn't even bother to offer me the courtesy of a test of their demo car when it arrived. That is being rectified this week but at my prompting so I'm not overjoyed with their customer service again (had a previous issue with them and placed the order for the GT there against my better judgement). I'm not expecting a fast B road car and will be very happy with a relaxed GT as the other toys are plenty fast enough for B road blasts. The compliments/admiration versus the Murci doesn't surprise me in the slightest to be honest. I'm quite looking forward to the subtle exclusivity of the car.

Pleased to hear such a positive review of the GT. Mine is scheduled for April delivery and you comments really echo the reasons why I ordered it.

I see you're in the berkshire area! If you're ever about after taking delivery, I would love to take a gander! Would be worth a beer or two!

No problems J. I'll post photos when I take delivery, so you can PM me then to arrange.

Mosi - Whats the room like in the back mate? Is it practical (on the lines of a Continental GT or impractical on the lines of a 911/DB9??)

Far more space (both seat space, legroom and headroom) than a Bantley GT. I was quite surprised when I got it. It truly is a perfect family car !

Wow, very surprised by this. Would have thought it'd be 612 type space but clearly sounds bigger. Very interesting. If so it's in a niche of its own really...

Plato loved it on his test drive of it on 5th Gear last night, apart from him wanting another 100hp/100Nm that is.

Looked stunning outside and inside.....
