WHAT THE K500 MARKET INDEX SAYS ABOUT THE…

K500’s Simon Kidston says, ‘Controversial Bertone “wedge” styling for the last “old school” luxury Maserati, a fine, usable GT forever underrated with buyers suspicious of its Citroën hydraulics. With twin fuel tanks filled to 100-litre capacity it had almost perfect front-rear weight distribution – not bad for a 2+2. It was particularly fancied in the Middle East where owning oil wells certainly helped. If there’s a better example of buying a fully restored car for less than the work cost, letting someone else take the pain, we’ve yet to see it.’
