ascari ecosse is a bit of a dog, but i seem to remember them doing ok in the british gt [F1 aside naturally]



agree on the 308gt4, always thought they'd make a cracking rally car. small, short, wheel at each corner
A spirited run with Lee Noble at the wheel when I was a nipper really turned me to the ways of the petrolhead cloud9

Since i love it so much, here is the picture of the Testarossa in white.

It just so happens to have the best crimefighting duo Miami has ever seen!



£30k will buy a belter of a Testarossa. cloud9

Not wishing to be a pedant, but the car in James May's film is a Bora and the picture you've posted is a Merak. teacher

So different from the usual red and it looks right too.

shout STEP AWAY FROM THE CHEAP FERRARI!

If you want to bankrupt yourself then you might as well buy a 400 series as a V12 is always better that a V8.

Should get a 400 pretty cheap... scratchchin

I'll save for a 355.
