Buying back the rare classic my parents had from new - Maserati Indy 4700 GT

Driving the coolest classic Maserati that nobody remembers. If you have already watched the Car Cave that this rare Maserati Indy 4700 is associated with, then you'll know it shares residence with another '70s sports car icon - the V12 Lamborghini Espada.

This is a Maserati Indy - a swoopy four-seater V8 GT that formed a permanent memory for owner Steve Parry when he was a boy. Why? Because his parents bought this exact car brand new and his Mum used to regularly use it during the 1970s. It has been repainted in various colours since its original metallic brown hue, but Steve accidentally stumbled across the auction sale of the Indy before realising it was the same car he'd lost touch with all those years ago.

In this episode Jonny gets to drive the Indy and experience what an original RHD Indy 4700 feels like on the British roads.
