With Maserati having moved to the mellower Quattroporte platform for its latest GT, the GranSport is as focused as the trident gets for the time being. Used examples offer a Ferrari sense of occasion for Porsche prices. Make sure the car in question has been meticulously maintained. As the last of the 3200/4200 line, the GranSport had a lot to live up to and on its day, it won't disappoint. Quite how frequently those days crop up will largely depend on how dutiful the previous owner has been but there also seems to be an element of 'luck of the draw', with some new GranSports performing acceptably in terms of reliability and others being nothing but an ongoing headache. Accept that you're not going to be getting German style build integrity and budget accordingly.

About the Maserati GranSport

With a massively charismatic engine, huge sense of occasion and distinctive styling, the Maserati GranSport feels like a throwback to the golden age of Italian supercars. Unfortunately build quality is often of a previous era with minor trims and electronic functions failing with quite some regularity. You'll probably need to look at two or three lemons to find a decent car but many deem the rewards to outweigh the risks. Buy with care and you could net a gem.

Representative finance example

If your borrow amount is £7,000 with a deposit of £1,000, a selected term of 48 months, at a representative APR of 17.9% (fixed) and an annual fixed interest rate of 17.9%, you would pay £171.83 per month. Total charge for credit would be £2,247.84 and total amount repayable is £8,247.84.
