A GTS is rare anyway, and most people don't know they even made it a pre facelift version, so it's actually even rarer with only 18 taxed and 16 sorn in the UK. They were only made from Q3 in 2008 and then in 2009 they did the facelift 4.7 GTS. Compared to a facelift this is great value as the cheapest one of those is 28.5k even with 70k miles.
It had an engine replacement under warranty by HR Owen Maserati (this was done at 31k miles in 2014, so the engine effectively has 68k miles on it). I've never owned a car with as much paperwork. Most of the work is by HR Owen Ferrari/Maserati and Meridien. The most recent service was done in December 2025 @ 99k miles, which included spark plugs too (with all parts being genuine from Maserati), and the one before that was early that year in January @ 97k. I have been meaning to get it booked in for the gearbox service doing (it has been done previously too), but haven't got around to it, so it comes with a genuine ZF service kit which was around 255.
It comes with two sets of wheels. The originals, which have Michelin Sport Alpin winter tyres on (one does have a puncture), and the ones which are currently on, which are from a GranTurismo S. These have Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres on all around with lots of tread.
Being the age it is, is does have a few imperfections, but nothing major. It's a fantastic looking car, and gets a lot of attention and compliments. It certainly looks like a more expensive car than it is. Of course, the best thing is the sound from the Ferrari derived and built 4.2 V8. It's also not too bad on fuel for what it is. I averaged 28.5 mpg from Doncaster to Inverness when I did the NC500, and that was without trying so could have been better.
I've owned the car for the last 12 months and it hasn't let me down once in that time. It does however have the TPMS light on, which is very common on these (they are actually very reliable cars, as most actual owners will attest to, unlike people on the internet who have never actually owned one).
I think given that it comes with two sets of wheels & the genuine ZF service kit, that the asking price is a fair price, however I am open to offers or PX
