Your not going to get much of a Maser for10K except for a lot of expensive work..
15k upwards gets you into nice car territory!

I'd look for a well serviced higer milage 4200 if I were you . They are reliable and very reasonably priced these days . Alot of car for your money . You might need to stretch your budget to £12 k though .

something like this as you really want one thats had a recent clutch change :

I remember that car. Nearly bought it last year. Seller didn't want to accept my offer day one then ended up trading it in for less some months later. Go figure.

That one is a nice car and should be able to be bought for max £10k. I know it would have been sold for a fair bit less than £10k. I reckon £9k could buy it.

that 4200 looked tidy, clean under bonnet.
The QP from PH is indeed a brave pill. But then again I have been running similar as my daily driver and wouldn't swap for any PCP sedative sedan

Hi Chris don’t worry about the spelling, I am still getting over spelling Alfa incorrectly, 3 years, 7 months and 4 days ago, didn’t bother me in the least. I agree with Spartacus, a 4200 but try and go in excess of 12 K for a really good one. It’s probably just me but I wish they were still in production, I would still choose one as a new car just for the looks, each to their own!

Hi, Just registered here.
Looking for a fun car to embrace my midlife crisis early ,-) Just kidding. -Always fancied a nice Masarati and finally have the funds to play...
ANYBODY SELLING? Budget around £10k.
I am based in Somerset/Devon area but happy to travel for the right car.
Thanks in advance.,
Chris
Hi Chris - dropped you an private message given you are so close to me. Would be good to connect.

I can understand lease / PCP.

Quite a few people can afford 250 a month. Very few have 10k saved.

And even if they do have 10k saved, you can be driving around in a much nicer car for 250 a month.

Completely different scenario to having a daily driver versus a toy (which is all any sane person would trust a 10k Maserati to be).
I must be totally insane. Mine is a daily driver and I doubt it is worth anything like 10k any more.

Can you be insane if you suspect that you are? Do you have insight if you re insane?

Personally I think it was an insanely lucky guess

There are various indications of insanity, one of them apparently being an inability to control one's apostrophes (or lack thereof):

Another indication is a tendency to drive ludicrously expensive cars for which there is no justification whatsoever:

65987

If you have either of these tendencies you may need help, if you have both you could be in trouble, and if you post on forums where such things are discussed you are a lost cause :confused:
