Introduced at the 2003 Frankfurt Motor Show, the fifth-generation (M139) Quattroporte was styled by Ken Okuyama of Pininfarina whose other credits included the Honda NSX and Enzo Ferrari. More driver orientated than a Bentley Flying Spur or range-topping Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the Maserati had a firmer ride and, in early cars at least, a ‘Duo Select’ paddle-shift transmission that was not at its best in fully automatic mode. Powered by a Ferrari-derived 4.2 litre ‘quad cam’ V8 engine developing 395bhp/333lbft and reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.4 seconds and 171mph, the Quattroporte featured a truly sumptuous interior. For the money there are very few cars that can imbue occupants with the same sense of occasion as a M139.

First registered to H.R. Owen of South Kensington on 16^th March 2005, ‘LJ05 HXW’ was bought by a prominent surgeon and senior Oxford University Polo Team member the following month who sent it back to the Maserati concessionaire for servicing in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Finished in striking Verde Goodwood with Beige leather upholstery, the Quattroporte also boasted a Bose upgraded stereo with CD changer, factory 6.5-in screen, Satnav/TV/handsfree, cruise control and heated/memory front seats. Warranted to have covered just 27,949 miles when purchased by the vendor’s later father from DK Engineering on 26^th August 2010, the super saloon was treated to a full service and new clutch as part of the sale. Returning to the renowned Hertfordshire-based dealer for maintenance in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, the last of these trips included the installation of four new brake discs / pads as well as a full mechanical inspection and service at a cost of £4,365.09. Fitted with replacement rear tie rods by Maranello Sales as per the factory recall in 2015, ‘LJ05 HXW’ was last serviced by Barr-Tech Specialist Cars of Cambridge at a warranted 34,815 miles on 24^th March 2021. Offered for sale with book pack, history file, two keys and MOT valid until March 2022.
