What have you done to your Maserati today?

[Burf22]

Got a fresh MOT on the QPV courtesy of the good folk at Barr-Tech (recommended by the way) and passed this milestone on the way.

Good to hear.
They are my nearest specialist, but never used them myself. Always hear good things about them though.

Just back from a 300 mile road trip down to Devon and a couple of nights in The Pig at Combe (highly recommended!). Google took us on some pretty awful country roads that were hardly anything above a farm track; a bit of a challenge due to mud, water and pot holes. Came back today via the Haynes Museum which I’d never been to. Only one Maserati on display, a nice looking Merak.

Gave the car a coat of Lanoguard and touched in bits where the under seal was flaking. The rear panel under the exhaust is next. The fixings - look exactly like the ones on my wife's Alfa GT, have all corroded. Any tips aside from drilling them out? MOT next week.

Finally took the old girl out this afternoon for a blast, apparently the throttle dial goes all the way to 11

Calculated that the QPV cost £2.18 per mile over the last 12mths. (Worth every penny BTW!) As a comparison, our ancient V70 is about 38p!

Oh, bugger, well remembered!

Mine will be back on the road next week, at last. Today I received a box fall of lovely carbon fripperies, which will be going on first, though. Unfortunately it was me that received them; they were supposed to be sent to the place that will fit them in. Also unfortunately I got whacked for ******* sodding import duties and tax.

So we will both have some extra jewellery for LeMans then.

Prince Albert?

Done years ago. Just linked them all together now with a nice shiny chain.

Good idea. If we all connect our Prince Alberts then none of us will get lost during the LM trip.

Well, one lost all lost, anyway.

Normally that would result in everybody ending up in a French ditch, but we should be safe this year.

The important point is to coordinate toilet stops.

I had to read that twice i thought that was a B rather than D in ditch! And did wonder what precautions were to be employed!

I just don't think you have thought this through.
