    456GTA M Pop-up Headlights Fail

    Sounds like a common point failure, probably a relay in there somewhere. Have you also asked on fchat as there will be more owners of 456 there?

    How do you store yours

    I top the fuel tank (minimise condensation) put the trickle charger on and a dust cover. leave the handbrake off and crack the windows to allow a bit of air circulation. thats about it. its in a non heated garage, a bit drafty but it does have a dehumidifier on twice a day. if i do start it...

    How do you buy a Ferrari ?

    I would go see that black/rec 430. the red interior actually looks good in real life. you can compare to the red/ crema. and also a 360, although not a spider you will get the idea. Roger will also have a service bay full of stuff in for service to look at. as to changing the leather colour...

    How do you buy a Ferrari ?

    didnt drive any; bought the model I liked/ could afford. if you are that split in 360/430 I try lyndhurst dealer/ kent high performance, put your cards on the table and ask if they can help you out. both have 360 & 430 in. (you must be keeping a better eye on the bkue 43o market!! if you...

    How do you buy a Ferrari ?

    You’re experience sounds about right unfortunately. As mentioned once you know what you want, call the specialist dealers and have a chat, including Carrs. A lot of stock is sold before it is advertised, and you will only get a potential whiff of these if you speak to the dealer and let them...

    How do you buy a Ferrari ?

    Not sure which dealers you have been to, but a) start with reputable ferrari indies, b) be prepared to travel to see cars, c) if they treat you like crap, call them out and walk out d) appreciate that they do need to weed out tyre kickers, most cars at dealers are on sorn so they have to look...

    My 458

    personally not a fan of black rims; gold speciale ones will look great, in my view. you can always swap back if you dont like them

    348 parts

    Giles’ 360 Modena on-line scrapbook

    For new parts I always use ferrariparts; ask nicely and as a foc member they offer a discount, and have actual price and availability. eurospares just piggiy backs and is generally somewhat out of date. youve done well there! probably one of those winter jobs; not technically difficult but...

    296 GTB prices vs F8 /488

    ah yeah, think I’ll spend £300k based on the opinions of a couple of youtube nobody’s who are after clicks to get money as they would be useless at anything else in life! it is an amazing car to drive; so easy on road and amazingly quick on track but after kangarooing down the M4 with some...

    296 GTB prices vs F8 /488

    who says its the car to have….the dealers? same as any other hybrid….battery. liability of battery when out of warranty and annoying haptic controls. shame as its a pretty car. now if that was a ice v6 as per the race car i suspect it would have taken off

    Euro trip to Maranello

    I use satnav and double check with google to make sure they are “real roads” and also force it to go where i want. if you pop on aa or rac website they have a bit on what kit etc you need to drive on the continent. easy enough to just get everything required; if a cop pulls you and they are...

    Euro trip to Maranello

    Sounds like a great trip and one on my list. If you want to do it in 2 days (more below) ferry/ train timings will probably determine which works best for you. We are the other end of the country and prefer a ferry to the M25. if you go calais way you can stop at reims for the obligatory pic...

    Looks good Giles. For us in the west country tpcs-magnesium-refurbs.co.uk He has done various components over the years for me; with my 355 magnesium rims going in next year for powdercoating.

    348 make it the best

    nice 👍. mine were to far gone to refurb and I felt totally aggrieved at the cost for cheap plastic replacements.
