This is a question Impulse buys

Seemed like a good idea at the time....
several years back...
Going through a separation after 20 years of wedlock...
What can be besed described as a difficult time...
Anyway.. the witch pleads poverty and the need for a car for the bofkins...
Borrow mine... (bearing in mind she had already stolen my ML320 and sold it... (OK so I'm a prat))...
"Thank you" she says, so I go home and arrange finance to buy another set of wheels...
Call it midlife crisis or whatever... it was silly buy at the time (her thieving bastards (lawyers) made much out of it)..
I bought a Maserati Spyder.
Wow!... a ragtop with oomph!!...
Can't use it in winter or bad weather... Too powerful for the road (so it spent all last year in the garage).. it comes out in summer for 6 months..
Best described as a 2+2.. it's no use now as new Bofkin is 6 months old.
In 4.5 years I've put 6K on the clock (current total 29K)

Not the wisest purchase...
Anyone want to buy a Mazza? (seriously)

Hm. *rummages in pockets*
I'll give you £4.50, a used train ticket and a piece of fluff.

I'll raise the £4.50
to £500, an MOT-failure ford probe and a really surprisingly practical while still being quick (so it's perfect for you) BMW 320i coupe w/ M3 alloys. And a set of manufacturer alloys for the beemer w/winter tyres. Also my firstborn.

Nice offer but...
It's not another car I'm after... I already have to move 3 to get her out of the garage. That's another reason to move her on...
Stick with your first born... They're more expensive to run but they're worth it in the long term...

Sorry...
It's RHD and based in the UK.

Seriously ...
3.5k for a 4.5 yr old Maserati Spyder?



















What colour?
(the wife will kill me if I buy it - if I don't kill myself driving it first ...)
