. This 2005 Maserati 4200 Coupe is a very smart example of the Giugiaro-style grand tourer, presented in its handsome factory colour scheme. It is powered by the characterful Ferrari-built 4.2-litre F136R V8 engine, producing 385bhp, with rear-wheel drive via the six-speed Cambiocorsa automated-manual transmission with paddle shifters. The car forms part of a private collection and has been off the road for several years. Although in generally good condition, it requires some recommissioning work to make it road worthy. Presented in light blue with cream leather, the paintwork is in nice original condition with no evidence of rust or serious damage. There are, however, some scratches on the near side door and evidence of peeling lacquer or the rear bumper. The interior is generally in reasonable order with some cracking and discolouration to the leather seats and door trim. There are some scratches to centre consul trim and dash switches. The front light covers have become crazed and cloudy and there are the usual stone chips to the front end you would expect with a car of this age. Wheels have some kerb damage to the edges and tyres are worn. Mechanically it starts and runs well but may need some servicing work before it is ready for the road due to warning lights on the dashboard. The Maserati GT Coupe currently are a great investment and prices are now starting to climb as they have been recognised for their beauty and pedigree.
