Maserati Gransport V8 (2004 - 2007) Coupé 2d auto Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
DVLA say only 48 registered so more exclusive than most Ferraris. Everybody loves a Maserati , no negative responses from anyone , people talk to you at petrol stations, traffic lights, gets photographed a lot. I've always liked Italian kit , and have reached a Maserati via a Lancia and 3 alfas . By far the best car I've ever owned, down sides are eye wateringly expensive parts (£104 for a window switch , £500 for an ignition barrel and key) however , show it a quiet open stretch of road with no one looking , nail it and pull for the next gears at 7000 ,.it's so worth it , the sound of that Ferrari built V8 is magnificent. If you get a chance to own one or just have a go in one , grab it . Had mine for nearly a year now and monitoring prices shows an increase in value , they are not making any more . A shame to see a great marque following the crowd with an SUV , but a diesel option ? Really? Hope to see a worthy successor to my Gransport soon .
How reliable do you find the car?
Bought from Richard Grace , he only sells the finest examples .Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
First car I've owned with paddle shift . Found to be intuitive to use , as long as you stay away from parellel parking its fine. Auto option is hopeless though , heads for 6th as soon as it can , then gets confused when speed drops or you floor it . Stick to paddle use and leave sport mode engaged, great whoop of revs on down changes .About their car
