There's a real cult following around the auto manual transmission. Although lots of people won't touch them. Love these cars.

Clutch should last easily 20-30k if you make sure you drive it in manual mode with the paddles and not auto. And probably lasts longer if you use it in sport mode not normal. Only issue there is that it makes the suspension harder which isn’t always what you want!

Amazing cars. Had mine 3 years so far.

I’ve had one for over 6 years and 35k miles now. Just got my first big bill (rear suspension, brakes and pads all round, ball Joints, track Rod ends and a few other bits and bobs).
I reckon on average I will have spent about £3k a year getting it serviced at dealers and independent specialists like McGrath Maserati.
They’re great cars and I plan to drive mine into the ground

Colour is rare and gorgeous ❤

That's absolutely beautiful mate, I think there is a calculation you can do via the diagnostics that tells you the exact percentage of clutch left, that colour and interior is insane, what else could you get for 5k to get anywhere near that!

Looks clean for the money 👍

Great car - nice prezentation

Had one of these. Ive now got the new shape with the 3.8 v8

Sehr sympathisch erzählt. Ich werde diesen Fehler auch noch machen und einen M139 kaufen. Scheiß drauf... you only live once !!

It sounds like whoever did the clutch previously didn't program the kisspoint afterwards and reset clutch level. If you can get a shop to do that, you may notice improved shifting and extend clutch life. Good luck to you.

It is amazing car, you can drive her weekends only so you will keep the maintenance cost very low and the car will last you longer

Get the subframe checked out asap, I didn't prior to purchasing one and it ended badly. Still love QPV's though..

You can fix it yourself, just takes time.

Very nice colour combination. I love the grandpa spec! I have a 2011 Maserati Quattroporte S myself, same generation model but with the ZF box. These cars are really cool, sound amazing. The engine is actually very reliable if properly maintained. I spend maybe around 1000EUR a year on maintenance, excluding taxes, tires etc. Some years it is more, sometimes less. I drive around 10k km a year with the car. It's a blast.

Hi. I enjoyed part 1 but I cannot find part 2

This guy could put a glass eye to sleep. Nodded off while watching.😂

Still no part 2 in 3 months ....

The front plate isn't legal.   The purpose of a plate is to identify the vehicle.

The perished part around the boot opening, what word did you use to find discussions for it in forums? Mine has some perishing.
