Maserati Granturismo S

[K155]

Hi, could anyone please advise on the depreciation of a new GTS, approx one year from new and about 5k miles on the clock......am trying to decide between buying new vs 2nd hand.

Also what may be the implication of selling a car if bought as second hand with 2 previous owners?

Cheers.

You can safely expect to drop £20k + from full list at that age and mileage. You should be able to get a pretty healthy discount on a new car to compensate for that steep drop though to be fair. Maseratis are similar to Ferraris in terms of multiple owners so that shouldn't be a concern provided the car is in good condition. I'd buy used were I going for one again in all probability.

Thanks, do you know of any good deals on 2nd hand, low mileage?

Only what's in the classifieds. You just missed mine - Nero Carbonio/Rosso leather, grey Neptune alloys, alcantara headliner, piano black trim + +. It was a November '09 car and I'd only done 350 miles in it so it was as new. I think it sold for under £79k. New list is close to £100k now for the same spec.

i went for a testdrive in the stratstone demonstrator in manchetser. i do remember the sticker price being far less than the one i specced up with them. it was grey and had plenty of options ticked.

isuk & raja....many thanks. This means that upon registration, the devaluation is relatively high.....
