All colours look fantastic, but when mine is all shiny there is no car I would rather have on my drive

With 360CS sitting at about £95k surely 430 Scuds are looking conspicuously good value for not much more?http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3997067.htm
The discovery that the Scuderia has 3 suspension settings not 2 has made the experience even better. Coming from an F430 F1 Spider I had wrongly assumed the low grip setting on the Manettino
to be the same. As soon as I hit a bad surface or driving through town I immediately select low grip giving the softest suspension setting. Having forgotten to switch back quite a few times its actually a very interesting setting to explore, especially in the wet

Who in their right mind would convince you not to? 
If that one really is sold, get another bought!
In fact, this is absolutely stunning: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/4049535.htm

The scud has a soft damper setting button by the handbrake, and it's superb when driving along a bumpy b road. Although when the wife had a go the other day she said "why's the car in a river" LOL!to be the same.

When you say the scud is crap what are you comparing it to? Apples with apples? Honestly I'm interested, was yours broken all the time or did you not realise what it was? Perhaps you was hoping it was something different like a comfortable luxury car?
I think Ted's car is mine now, and I wouldn't file it within the 'Crap' folder personally I am not a big fan of Ferraris in general, but the Scud looks like value to me.
Any 458 iteration of the Scud is surely going to cost £220k plus, so this should make the 430 Scud look a reasonably safe place for your money.
Unless of course, the EU and the global economy collapses in which case the Scud will be useful to make a quick getaway from the angry mobs of disenchanted and jobless middle classes trying to ram raid the local Waitrose.

Andy I doubt your car is anything like crap, I was wondering what ted thought was st about it?
Sorry, I wasn't having a dig at you, it just came out wrong on t'internet ... whoops!t about it?Ted, said he didn't like the car when I first bought it, I just think he didn't gel with it. Ferrari or not a Scud can wear a bit thin! For me personally it's a sunny day car that fills me with excitement each and every time I open the garage door.
