I Got my new Sport 150 MJet yesterday and thought to show a picture or 2, but as there is no link on this thread to add them from my p/c I am a bit Flummoxed !:confused::confused::confused:

Then I found the 'Manage attachments' button.
So this might work after all.

Good colour choice! Mines a masser blue mjet sport as well! I might give it a wash and take some piccies this weekend!

Just ticked over 1000 miles, computer says 47mpg, which seems to be close to what the diesel pumps are telling me - not bad for what still feels like a tight engine...

Hi Rich, quick question for you, does your car have the 'SPORT' button ?

Can confirm it doesn't - just as Hellcat says, only the girly city button. Doesn't get the funky multifunction dispay with turbo boost guage that the petrol sports get either, but I'd happily trade those for the in gear acceleration that will wipe the floor with the petrols and fuel economy they can only dream of:devil:!
 
OK Thanks for that.
I'm with you on that, the petrol 150 was ok for town driving but not a patch on the diesel on the motorway. Three quarters of my driving is on M roads so there was no contest really.
I had to ask the question because I drove the TJet 150 Sport for a test and did not really like it. The Dealer never had a Mjet Sport available so I drove a 150 dynamic instead for the test drive, I thought that had a sport button though? But wanted the Sport trim, so I never saw a Sport MJet until mine arrived.

The last new car I bought was in 2002, a GT TDI 130 Golf. The economy started off in the 40s and never reached high 50s until after 10k miles.
 
Great car, great colour.

In fact if I had the money, I'd be getting a masser blue mjet sport to upgrade the Grande this year. Problem is that suddenly everything's gotten really expensive just to financilly stand still and my salary forgot to keep up.... :(

(Just realised how moany that was, sorry bout that)
 
I had a similar dilemma regarding alloys - didn't really like the standard 17's, didn't fancy the harder ride / expensive tyres of the 18's, so eventually I settled for the 17" 10 spoke fiat accessory alloys, which I'm really happy with. Now what to do with spare set of 17's...

Anyhow, as promised, here she is, outside the garage, waiting to be tucked away from the rain and wind!!!

YOUR ALLOYS LOOK GOOD, SHAME THAT STYLE NEVER CAME IN 18s.

I also went for the tinted rear windows, they look really good on the Massarati Blue, I'll include another photo showing them when it stops raining.

I was torn about the tints - love the look of them when applied to the whole car, but I'm not so sure about the rear only (I know it's to comply with legislation etc). I also thought with the tiny rear windows it could get really claustrophobic in the back with tints (although this would be offset to some degree by the sunroof), so decided against them...

I hope your photo's don't make me want to change my mind!!!:p
 
Here is a pic or two of the tints.

Hmm, still not sure about the two different tints between the front and back windows - now if they were all that dark....:yum:

I think for my personal taste I made the right descision, but as long as you're happy, that's all that matters...

BTW, I waxed mine with Collinite 915 Marque d'Elegance the other week. Boy does it make the Maserati Blue shine - the finish is superb. It's not cheap, but I would highly recommend it (only if your not shy of hard work though - it's a bu**er to polish off!!!)
 
I waxed mine before taking those pictures, I used MER polish which has collinite in it and costs about £15 a litre. It was a sod to polish off and I am not sure about the shine. As to whether it was worth the effort.
Next time I'll use Pledge furniture polish.
