Hoovies garage is turning into wheeler dealers, except without the profit :D

When did the wheeler dealers ever make a profit on a car? Usually they paid x amount of money on the car and y amount of money on parts and sold it for x+y+200 bucks... They never calculated any expenses for the garage and mechanics hours into the bill - they made a loss on any car they had on that show.

The most reliable car I had - more reliable than the E39 2001 M5 I owned before the Maserati

Just found your channel. This was great. Owning these sorts of cars and the maintenance involved, as you know, comes with the territory. Especially Maserati. Would have sold mine years ago and stuck to hassle free, low cost super reliable Japanese motoring. Nothing sounds like a naturally aspirated Maserati V8 though. And you have a very rare colour example there. Bordeaux Pontevecchio is one of "THE" colours to get with the cream interior. Nice vid!
Guys, I'm Italian, and I can say that without a doubt The Wizard's Italian accent on the "nessun dorma" was perfect. I was impressed. Hoovies though...
The sound of that motor is one of the greatest things to wake up to on a Saturday. Hot.

I was waiting for you to buy a Quattroporte.. Hopefully once you've fixed it I can buy it for 9k..
Provided nothing else pops up, I guess $13k isn't too terrible for a zero issue Quattroporte. Still spending an additional 50% of the purchase price to fix the car, but hey, that's better than usual.

Ironically for an Italian V8, this thing has a crossplane crank; only the Ferrari V8s were equipped with a flat plane crank, which makes them sound a lot different. It sounds more like an American or a conventional European V8, especially at idle. With only about 400 HP and even less torque in a car that weighs in over 4000 lb, it's all show and no go.

It is sometimes astonishing what can still be salvaged when one is willing and able to tear stuff apart and get into the real fiddly stuff. A mechanic is not going to do that, doesn't pay, he will just drop a unit in which saves him labor. Not the mechanics fault, just doesn't pay him to work otherwise.
"I'm not spending more money than I spent with the car to fix it, that's great" You know something has not gone well when you hear that

Whenever I need an engine or transmission mount I just take the old ones out and fill them in with polyurethane caulk from Home Depot. I once fixed two engine and one transmission mount for only $7. Performance mounts are generally polyurethane instead of the softer OEM rubber which gives it a bit of a crisper feel when accelerating, however, there is a little bit more vibration that passes to the frame because it's not as soft as the rubber. In most cases barely or not even noticeable.

Absolutely superb design, but built from egg boxes and old tat. I've had 2 of these. The main problem is the throttle potentiometers, above the gas pedal. They are made with a plastic strip covered in carbon. A metal pointer tracks up and down and wears the carbon away meaning the engine is at full power or tickover. Replacement costs £2000. Then there's the seals, bearings and ancillaries. Rich man's car, but lovely.
