Is that the one that had gold wheels in the classifieds a couple of months ago?

FWIW I quite like it.

Love the colour. OP when you chose your username were you influenced by Triumph by any chance?

I think it looks stunning , so much nicer than "resale rosso"... Simon Furlonger - "proper" dealer?

Cheers

Thought the one with gold wheels was a 348?

Hey that is really nice colour. Not one that you would associate with 355 or any Ferrari for that matter. Looks terrific!

Was looking round this car when i was down at Simon Furlongers picking my 355 up the other day. Its a real nice car-colour. They now have an impressive in house service department and give every car a thorough check over so you can buy with confidence. Top quality cars and service IMHO

There are more than a few that wouldn't agree with your sentiments.....
Don't know about their service division but have known Simon for 15 Years, always had a good reputation as far as I know

Why's that they have some serious cars and a good reputation?

Just seen your profile, all I can say is that they were very decent to me on a test drive once. No hard sell and a good run out in the car I was interested in.

Not saying all they deal with is crap. To be fair the 3 cars I saw with issues may well have been on consignment. Just saying to be cautious and have an independant PPI carried out, which is what you should do anyway, whichever dealer/Indy you choose to buy such a valuable car from....
