The Appeal
When it comes to a Luxury Sports Sedan, the Maserati Quattroporte is an icon. The Modena-built car has been in production for six generations since 1963. Filled with luxury, with sleek and distinctly understated bodywork, the 5th generation rapidly became a keystone in Maserati's product range, and continues to be an impeccable contender for a modern classic.
This particular 2007 example is no exception. Its sleek black exterior and cream interior exude elegance and sophistication - and the car comes complete with plenty of service history. This highly engaging Italian motor is bound to get plenty of attention.

Under the current ownership circa £3,000 has been spent on upkeep and improvement. This includes replacing the wheel bearing which is a common issue for this era of Maserati as well as maintenance to suspension components. Improvements have also been made to rectify the common issue of bubbling paint on the wing mirrors so that it looks as good as when it left the factory.
