And that's why I say, "There's nothing quite like a Falcon."
Don't cost as much to replace. |

I was an associate member of the Maserati owners club a few years ago and the people that turned up to track events were a great bunch of guys. Interesting spread of cars (although few actually sprinted their Maseratis) and not stuck up at all, just real car enthusiasts. Everything competed on the day from the very rare and pristine to the mundane and tatty (me). Same as some of the Ferrari drivers (chatting with an F40 owner years ago).
Wasn’t the 3200GT the straight 6 turbo model with the “boomerang taillights”? The later models had the Ferrari derived N/A V8 with more normal taillights?

I think half the people on here must be privy to more information than myself, because I didn't read anywhere in that article that the girl was rich or spoilt, or that she regularly illegally parks her brothers car.
For we know they are a working class family, the brother has landed a good job bought a nice car, and lent it to his sister while he's away, she may have not realized she was in a construction zone. All these comments prove is how petty and jealous some people of others who have nice things. |

"Ms Huljich, who has just moved to the area, was put in charge of the 1999 3200 GT Maserati while her brother holidays in South America."
Who wants to bet hes coming back with atleast 100kg of coke? |

I saw a new Quattroporte the other day.
Very impressive looking in the metal. |

I'm not saying that the car driver was blameless. Far from it. I just take a bit of issue to the fact that its suddenly OK because the car in question happened to fit your definition of a rich person's car....whatever that is. |

I don't think the guy would be to worried if the cars insured as they will pay the costs & chase the Forkie for the dollars & in the end these two have cost the insurance company big time & that would be passed onto the clients that have their cars insured with them |

Maybe she shouldn't have parked there, but I don't know what her situation was. What I do know is that the forklift driver was a complete idiot for doing what he did, even if he needed it moved he has now got himself into way more trouble than if he had just left it where it was. Behaviour like that is asking for trouble.
