Good afternoon,

A friend of mine has recently had an early mid life crisis and purchased a 'Y' reg Maserati 3200GT. A very very nice car, but unfortunately it comes with eye-wateringly expensive servicing charges. £120 per hour for labour in the Maserati main dealer in Manchester.

Anyway, do any of you know of any independent Maserati specialists in the north-west of England, preferably within a thirty miles radius of Southport?

Many thanks

Buy a copy of Auto Italia from WH Smiths there'll be loads of independants in the back. Might also be worth posting on the Pistonheads Italian car forum as their are several owners on there.

And your friend would get good value out of the the Maserati Club:

www.maseraticlub.co.uk/

in respect of this enquiry and no doubt many other matters, if he's not already joined (£50 annual sub, plus £10 joining fee).

Is the Maser main dealer in Chorlton? If not there is an independent on Barlow Moor Road iirc (its some time since I have been over that way)

Thanks for your help guys. It looks like he's going to need the specialist sooner rather than later.

After filling up with oil (proper stuff from Stratstone Maserati in Manchester) the oil pressure gauge reads just below 2.5 bar and the 'oil level warning' light comes on the dash when the engine is revved. He's a little worried by this... Just hope he gets it fixed soon as he's put me on the insurance!!
