Maserati At Goodwood Revival

 

23rd September, 2008

This year, the event was celebrating 60 years of the Goodwood Motor Circuit in front of a record-breaking crowd of 124,000 spectators over the course of this past weekend.

Eye-catching examples of the 'Trident' marque were out in force throughout the weekend with a total of 13 classic Maseratis thundering around the circuit. Some of the very rarest Maseratis were involved in the wheel-to-wheel on-track action including two Maserati 4CMs and two Tipo 61 Birdcages to name but a few.

Away from the thrilling on-track action, Maserati exhibited in the newly set-up Earls Court Motor Show, replicating the glamour of an authentic 1960s London Motor Show. A Maserati Mistral alongside a Quattroporte (Mk I) wowed the spectators, whilst they were offered a tantalising glimpse of Maserati’s “cars of the future” in the form of the GranTurismo S and Quattroporte S that flanked their 1960s counterparts.

During the course of the Goodwood Revival weekend, Maserati GB hosted a series of exclusive events for its clients: on Friday a function at Goodwood House for all the drivers and their guests, followed by a private dinner, and on Sunday 140 guests were treated to hospitality and could admire a selection of both modern and classic Maseratis.

The spectacular display on the lawn in front of Goodwood House offered guests the opportunity to see the Quattroporte’s evolution in the flesh, with every model in the history of the Italian marque on display. The Quattroporte I of the 1960s, the exceptionally rare Quattroporte II of the 1970s, of which only 12 were ever produced, the more modern Quattroporte III and IV were accompanied by the Quattroporte V and Maserati’s very latest Quattroporte S. The GranTurismo S in pearlescent Bianco Fuji completed the Maserati line-up.
