Our Verdict
Proceed with extreme caution despite the clean recent MOT record. While this 2006 Maserati Quattroporte shows a promising recent history, the inherent complexity and high maintenance requirements of a 20-year-old Italian luxury saloon make this a high-risk purchase.
When inspecting this vehicle, the service history is far more important than the MOT record. You must verify that the 'DuoSelect' automated manual gearbox has been maintained correctly, as clutch replacements are notoriously expensive on these models. Ensure there is documented proof of major servicing, including timing belt or chain inspections, as neglect here can be catastrophic.
Negotiate hard on the price if there are any gaps in the service history. Given the vehicle's age, you should set aside a significant 'contingency fund'—at least £2,000 to £3,000—to address the inevitable electrical or mechanical gremlins that often plague Italian luxury cars of this era.
Running a 4.2-litre V8 engine is an expensive endeavour. You should expect fuel economy in the low teens around town, and the annual Vehicle Excise Duty will be at the highest bracket for its age. Insurance will also be significant due to the vehicle's high performance and the cost of specialist parts.
Maintenance costs are not comparable to standard executive cars. Specialist labour rates and the scarcity of parts mean that even routine servicing can easily exceed £1,000 per visit. You should budget for an annual running cost, excluding major repairs, of approximately £3,500 to £4,500.
Pay close attention to the suspension components. The 2023 MOT noted slight play in the nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint, and the 2021 test flagged a worn shock absorber bush. Even though these were advisory items, they indicate that the complex suspension setup is beginning to show its age.
Check all electrical systems thoroughly, including the infotainment, seat adjustments, and window regulators. These are common failure points for the 2006 Quattroporte. Finally, inspect the underside for any signs of corrosion, particularly around the subframes, and ensure the engine runs smoothly from a cold start without any unusual rattles or warning lights on the dashboard.
This grey 2006 Maserati Quattroporte has covered just 54,141 miles, which is remarkably low for its age. The MOT history is encouraging, with the last two annual tests resulting in clean passes. However, potential buyers must remember that low mileage can sometimes mask issues related to long periods of inactivity in high-performance vehicles.
The Maserati Quattroporte is known for its high-performance engineering, which requires specialist maintenance; aggregate reliability data is limited, but owners should expect typical 'exotic' car reliability patterns.
