Presenting in stunning and less common Rosso Mondiale and hunkered down on its 20-inch “Astro” alloy wheels finished in Grigio Mercury, LP62 YLH is hard to ignore. It has a provenance to match, too. With just two owners to date and only 30,860 miles troubling the odometer, this is an unusually lightly used example. Being the Sport model, LP62 YLH relies on the mighty and handsome Ferrari built F136Y 4.7-litre V8 for propulsion. Belting out 454 bhp in this guise at a sonorous 7,000 rpm and feeding a six speed ZF automatic transmission, LP62 YLH is a 180 mph plus GT car masterclass. Complete with a full service history and paperwork dating back to the original bill of sale, LP62 YLH represents a tantalising ownership prospect. The former confirms the specifying of around £3,500 worth of desirable options. These include comfort pack, Bose surround sound system, custom seat stitching and embroidered Maserati tridents to the seat backs, auto dimming exterior mirrors, the special paint and sublime 20-inch alloys. Please note – the personalised registration number shown in our photographs is being retained by the current owner.

Maserati were forced to develop the Granturismo in a record breaking nine months. This was due to Fiat Group cousins, Ferrari, pulling rank and pinching Maserati’s planned GT Coupe model to release it as the California. Despite this unseemly rush the Granturismo was widely lauded. It looked fantastic, obviously, having originated from Pininfarina. LP62 YLH exhibits these sublime lines dramatically, courtesy of its Rosso Mondiale livery. The cabin is no less arresting thanks to the ample use of traditional Poltrano Frau leather in a Nero finish, Eco Chrome detailing, Rosso double needle stitching and embroidered trident emblems.

The current owner rates both paintwork and bodywork as “good.” It’s not perfect of course, this is an 11 year old car after all, but imperfections seem confined to the odd carpark type ding, some stone chips here and there and a slither of kerb rash to one wheel. The underside has even been professionally waxoiled. The cabin is appropriately scored as “excellent,” however. With such light use to date, everything in here looks pristine and is thought to work as it should. Given its fastidious service history, LP62 YLH should be considered mechanically sound. The brake lines have been upgraded to Ferrari F430 braided items in current ownership. Only the sports mode exhaust valves are noted as not working.

In summary:

· A low mileage, low owner example of the more powerful Sport model

· Presenting in a highly Maserati appropriate, vibrant livery

· Offered with a full service history and ample paperwork file
