Estimation : 140 000 € - 180 000 €

  • Rare 4-litre version
  • 3 owners since 1976
  • Wonderful patina

Delivered new in France, where it has had just two owners between 1976 and 2012, the car has 73 361 km on the clock today. It was in the Artcurial à Retromobile 2012 sale that our superb Mistral was spotted by the current owner, a genuine marque enthusiast and collector. Appreciating the authenticity and qualities of such an exceptional car, he took the necessary measures to preserve its condition and inimitable patina. Work has been carried out recently to repair the Lucas injection and ignition. Being in such well-preserved condition, there has been no need for major work on the body other than to replace the headlights and bumpers that had become too oxidized to be retained. This classic Mistral, with Borrani wire wheels, is presented in blue, with the same colour leather interior. The Maserati heritage department has confirmed to us that the car was originally light blue (Celeste Chiaro) with blue interior. The car drives perfectly and, interesting detail, is fitted with an unusual Maserati air conditioning system. It is rare to have an opportunity to buy one of the 828 examples of the Maserati Mistral coupé, and even more to find one in such well preserved condition with the most powerful engine…
