1989 Maserati BiTurbo 228 2.8
HIGHLIGHTS:
Celebrated as one of Maserati’s most characterful creations from the late 1980s, 1989 Maserati BiTurbo 228 2.8 reflects an era where Italian luxury met turbocharged performance with unmistakable flair. Designed as a refined grand tourer with compact proportions, BiTurbo 228 offers rarity, heritage, and a driving experience that appeals strongly to enthusiasts who value analogue charm and classic Maserati identity.
Presented here is a well-kept example owned for around 9 years, originally acquired from JAG Classics. Remaining in good running condition, this car has been maintained by various specialists, with the most significant mechanical work handled by Raymond Fletcher, a respected race mechanic. Finished with a cream leather interior, the car retains its original character while benefitting from consistent care over long-term ownership.
From a mechanical standpoint, this BiTurbo has seen extensive attention over the years. Belts, cam belt, fuel injector O-rings, hoses, power steering components, springs, brake servo, alternator, starter motor, and front caliper have all been addressed, while air-conditioning remains functional. Serviced yearly due to low mileage, oil condition and belts were recently checked and replaced where necessary. Mileage shows 24.5k miles, though the odometer stopped registering around 9 years ago. Bodywork and interior have largely been left untouched, presenting an honest classic with scope for future cosmetic refreshing if desired.
Choosing a classic Italian marque requires confidence in both car and platform. At JTCars, every listing is verified as genuine and supported by our own observation checks for transparent presentation.
