A Curve Ball

[sigma]

2 x asbo bikes, 1 x fix or repair daily and a leaf....not a lot to boast about there really

Was it a boast though? You asked.

ive already posted that i havent made up my mind and i have a few months to consider options, thats why i said its a curve ball..... but thanks for adding nothing to tthe thread lol

9k isn't enough money for anything interesting or different that won't either be old or cost the world to run.

Relatively low production number cars which aren't popular are pants compared to what you can purchase for the same money from a large production manufacturer, the R&D budget doesn't exist and the end product shows it.

Happy for the post to be locked to no further replies now.

We're not. OP asked for opinions and we're delivering.

We're trying to help you. Don't take our opinions about old Maseratis personally.

A whole lot more entertaining than an oil burner driven by someone who’s clearly having a mid life crisis.

At the end of the day OP, its ultimately your choice and that is all that matters.

You do you, but there are a lot of car nuts on this forum and you should probably at least take into account some of their comments.

The motors section never ever disappoints.

i post that doesnt have a pop at anyones car, but asking what they drive...

Because of course, the intention behind asking isn't to have a dig...

The Alfa someone mentioned earlier is a good shout.

Clearly you don't have enough for something nice for a 50th Birthday present, otherwise you wouldn't be looking at an old Diesel Maserati?

 

[radderfire]

I for one am looking forward to the "Does anyone know where I can get a set of brake discs for a 2014 Maserati Ghibli for under 4 grand?" or similar posts.

Since Mystic Meg was a fraud and i'm not a mind reader why not furnish us with additional information.

Show us pay slips for last 40 years to prove that you can afford it

Well until you mentioned the Leaf.

Absolutely buy a V8 Vantage.

We need a separate thread on this as I'm sure Jon would otherwise think that EVs are woke

 

[Armageus]

Well if you had more, then you'd be linking a Porsche, Aston Martin, Mclaren, Ferrari etc. Something genuinely special for a 50th birthday present that would be an event every time you drove it.

“I’ve got 9k to spend on something interesting” would have been a slightly more sensible thread title.
