the 308 is my favourite ferrari of all time. there was a 308 down near pontyberem (about 15 miles from me), it was in a bit of a state but the guy wanted waaaay too much for it...It's gone from there now...anyone know where it went?
308 and 208 were very very similar, almost identical to look at...
Were abouts? I know there was a 308/328 in Cross Hands.308 and 208 were very very similar, almost identical to look at...

a mk6 bentley is about 75% the size of a mighty S1, they are huge in real lifeboring fact, as big as they are, the back seat is actually smaller than the rear seat in a mini
Came across this the other day after getting slightly lost trying to find a car dealer and trusting technology , ended up surrounded by houses , poor thing looks green and neglected , parts and crap inside it aswell , hasn't moved for a while by the looks of it
And yes the place I was looking for turned out to be right opposite the houses so felt stupid

Been there.cosworth scrap yard
http://index.hu/gal/?dir=totalcar/blogok/belsoseg/...
It's not a scrapyard,it's a graveyard.
The cars are privateley owned by one person and he doesn't sell anything for sensible prices
which is why most cars are still complete.
I would post my own pics but photobucket is now virtually unusable in its new format
