When's the next car delivery due Pete?
Have you got a date for the LFA Rev off with Giblet yet? he'll probably want to show off his new new fast Lexus.
Remember when I said I was hoping to get something special soon, I’m just working on that deal at the moment. Don’t think the figures are stacking up though and the misses isn’t too happy about it haha. We’ll find out in the next few weeks whether it’s a goer or not.

Have you got any cool plates to go with the cars?
Just bought my first plate. APE27A for my Aperta Did you not buy the crazy priced one off the dealer for your 720?

I take it you dont get on with the Manchester Ferrari? I have had an "Interesting" experience with them,..
Care to elaborate? I’ve always assumed dealerships like Ferrari and Lamborghini etc treated customers like royalty. Commission based earnings on 200k+ cars..am I wrong?Hi guys
Sorry I’ve not responded much, my father has took a turn for the worst lately so I’ve been dealing with that.
Anyway this isn’t ‘Ask Diedre’ so let’s move on to my most recent purchases. The big deal I was hoping for but not holding my breath was this stunning Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder LWB.
Anyway the deal didn’t go my way so unlike Frank Gallagher, I pulled out.
As a conciliation I treated myself to something else.
Please welcome the newest addition to the Ferrari Fleet.
I’ll reply to some of the questions on here but for now I’ll be a bit quiet.
Cheers
Pete

t... rarely has one sentence contained so much yet so little detail...raining_sulphur said:
Well sh!t. I don’t know what to say to that...
Wow. If it’s not too cheeky, (its out of character for me mainly), but could I drool over your F40 when you get it? My wee abarth is getting a full paint correction detail and ceramic at Obsidian in August, would be awesome to get a pic next to something 150x the value lol.
Might have to be after August as I get married that month and I’m just going to concentrate on that, think Mrs. H would cut off my goose eggs if I spent that month messing about with cars hahaWow.

Hi Pete,
Not been upto date on here for a bit. Hope your old boy is o.k. And a massive holymoly!! The F50 was the poster(s) on my bedroom wall when I was recuperating all those years ago!! Fabulous car underated,even back in 96! So much more interesting than today's collective. Except the 918, in my humble opinion of course :+)
I bought the plate P918 BKE in preparation a few months ago. Not been upto date on here for a bit. Hope your old boy is o.k. And a massive holymoly!!

Thanks for the vid Pete.
In terms of constructive feedback for improvement, a lot of wind/tyre noise and speaking from a distance to the microphone don't go so well together. Makes you harder to hear than your mate who is nearer the mic. so may be worth an upgrade the mic setup so in the middle of both of yourselves or individual ones.
We are doing that next, we’re not professionals though so we’re still learning In terms of constructive feedback for improvement, a lot of wind/tyre noise and speaking from a distance to the microphone don't go so well together.

Does the AM not have a telescopic steering wheel? Looked a bit uncomfortable with it so far away.
As for the LC500, do they appeal? Probably quite similar to the Aston, but with the luxury and quality turned up to 11. Maybe a bit too slow and lacking soul, but something to consider when they bring out the LCF?
I still reckon you'd love a Corvette, especially a Z06 or ZR1, or the new C8 coming out that will be mid-engined - raw, fast, and an epic soundtrack.
I’ve got very long arms and legs so it was fine for me. As for the LC500, do they appeal? Probably quite similar to the Aston, but with the luxury and quality turned up to 11. Maybe a bit too slow and lacking soul, but something to consider when they bring out the LCF?

I just don’t like American cars so it’s not something I’d ever look at, interesting to see what it’d be like on the roads though.
