Hi all thought I'd drop in and show you my dad's new V8 Coupe. Its a '98 auto, and looks fab.


Nice to see you Stuart (Shady) today, have a good time in cornwall.

Have a good check for rust bubbles, especially around the windows.

Rust? On a '98 model?

There's been a recent post about rust on Maserati 3200's recently too. I thought the dreaded tin worm was a thing of the past.

Lovely car though and in a great colour. All things are relative, but that type of V8 coupe is pretty rare.

Seems pretty mint, 26000mls. They made about 100 of this model ,ie the non-vantage, lemans, V600 supercharged version. So it is pretty rare; it took a while to find!

Cheers,

Sam
