The M539 Restorations team is back with a jaw-dropping find: a Maserati Quattroporte GTS with a staggering 300,000 km on the clock. This top-of-the-line model boasts a Ferrari-based 3.8 L twin-turbo V8 engine, pumping out a whopping 530 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque. Despite its high mileage, this rare and incorrectly advertised gem is a steal at €85,000. However, the initial excitement turns to frustration as the team encounters issues with starting the car, including misfiring problems and warning lights galore.
Upon closer inspection, the team uncovers a history of complete engine overhaul at 272,000 km, raising both eyebrows and concerns. Despite the car's challenges, including a leaky drain plug and worn-out rear brakes, the team sees potential in this Italian beast. With its striking blue and white leather interior and distinctive exhaust note, the Maserati exudes a unique charm that's hard to resist. As they dive into troubleshooting and suspension checks, the team remains optimistic about the Quattroporte's future, determined to uncover its true potential and restore it to its former glory.
From the thrill of the find to the frustration of starting issues and misfires, the journey with the Maserati Quattroporte GTS is a rollercoaster of emotions. With a mix of excitement and trepidation, the team delves into the car's history, uncovering a tale of past challenges and triumphs. As they navigate through the car's quirks and potential pitfalls, one thing is clear: this Italian masterpiece has captured their hearts, and they're ready to take on the challenge of bringing it back to life.
