The Plus

Living proof that everything sounds better in Italian,'Quattroporte' simply means 'four-door', but the name has become synonymous with the pinnacle of Maserati style, performance and luxury. Six decades on, the Quattroporte remains perhaps the most exciting four-door executive saloon on the market.

We are delighted to present this first-generation example, a 1967 Series II Quattroporte. As you can see from the photos, this car is in very good condition for its age, having benefited from a great deal of care and attention, particularly in recent years. The bodywork was repainted to a very high standard between 2007 and 2010, while the mechanicals underwent a major overhaul in 2014.

In all, around €24,000 of post-2018 invoices accompany the car, and the vendor assures us that it is in excellent mechanical condition, ready to be enjoyed by its future owner. It has recently passed its MOT, which is valid until October 2029.
