Description

An original, UK-supplied, RHD 'SS', one of only 300
As an 'SS', it benefits from the more powerful version of the 3.0 V6 on triple Webers producing 220bhp up from the standard car's 190bhp and a revised interior including the Bora dashboard
Classically finished in Rosso Maserati over Nero (black) leather with Rosso horizontal inserts
Subject to a huge restoration in the 90s which included a full strip-down and bare metal repaint
Subsequently part of a large collection and for many years was unused
Purchased by our vendor who carried out a full re-commission and the car now runs very well
There are 2 box files with the car full of detailed receipts, description of work carried out, old MOTs, V5s, books, manuals and around 50 photographs of the restoration
The odometer currently indicates 85,563 miles. MOT until July 2022 issued with no advisories
This restoration has stood the test of time very well and the car remains in great condition both inside and out nicely set off by its fully refurbished set of silver Campagnolo alloy wheels.
