Must have been Maranello then? Thay have more Masers than Ferraris!!
That dual carriage way next to maranello's is great for blasting down....get's everybodies head up (the people looking at cars they cannot afford!)
Nice car BTW

Its a Maserati Spyder. They appear to have residuals like Fiats
They are hugely expensive new but are now available for under

the hood up one might have been me. in fact they both could have been me were it not for the fact that i don't have a hard top! but i certainly drive around the areas you describe each day. i think i normally see the silver one with the hardtop on the london road in the mornings

Shipley,
Lovely car the spyder, parents where going to buy one from the masserati garage in egham. fast at under 5 secs to 60, and it has the same engine that will be going into the new ferreri 360's, which is chain driven and not with a cambelt. BUT the cost of a service starts at

The Mazzer is one gorgeous car. My mate has the 4200GT. that wine/burgundy leather is the dogs 
comments...
Each tyre is 300 quid
The cambricorsa gearbox is shite-my mate has a manual and it's still a bag of spanners
it does 12mpg
Why did they change the rear lights
Goes like shit off a shovel-really really easy to lose your licence-in the tin top it doesn't give you the same sensation of speed as in the S, beleive me, first time I drove it, I pulled onto the motorway, glanced down,was doing 100
the engine growl is just awesome
He paid 40K for his with just 4K on the clock and 1 yr old (was 66K new I think)
I'd deffo have the tin top-the cab looks a bit girly, in fact I've only ever seen girls driving em.
Back on thread-I see vary few S's around, maybe one every two weeks or so. deffo not common
