Were at the 4 seasons in Hampshire for Goodwood and there a shed load of Ferrari 4 wheel drives here and lots of people on black tie - will put on me best shell suit and ask but are any PHers here?
We're in the back bar looking out of place if anyone want a jar

Apparently Ferrari paid for some prospective FF owners to stay over and drive in convoy to Goodwood no doubt using the 4wd on the grass to full effect.
They must be desperate to shift them - a Ferrari with no waiting list!
Anyone here at the Hotel?

I got a foot in the mouth email from Garry O'Dowd at HROwen telling me he'd just come back from Goodwood showing customers the F12, and would I be interested in talking about new cars.
I assume these customers have more than two GTO's and a 16M so thanks HROwen I know where I sit on your pecking order.

I understand Ferrari do it quite regularly as a thank-you to their new customers - a friend had a new California last spring & had the weekend down there with them.....he said it was a 'perk' of ownership to which I said you paid royally for that when you bought it

Only spoke to one guy and he was "thinking" about an FF most of the rest had Ferrari luggage etc and were loved up.

I think they must do a few things at the 4 seasons....Last time I was there, there were a fleet of California's that I'm guessing were press related as one had cameras hanging off it.
The grounds are fantastic, worth walking round. And always plenty of tasty machines...... I think city boys use it as a county weekend getaway!.
Ps. It's miles from Goodwood isn't it?

Although the one they had at their display was a gorgeous grey which was totally destroyed by the Canvey tint on the rear windows...what is wrong with these people! I mean keep these tints and spinners for the "emerging" markets but surely there are in simply too poor taste for Europe...

Lol we went over Abramovich valley a slight detour but from ( 3 powerfully built company directors) getting in to getting out was 28 mins Friday in against the wind.
Coming back was quicker.
