Today's temptation: a #Maserati Quattroporte.
Being an early M139, this has the 4.2-litre V8 and the Graziano automated manual.
Good history, a new clutch, and ~51k. Classy colour combo, too.
Five hours left.

I haven't seen one of these V6 petrol C6s for ages. Can't be more than a handful in the UK.
