Thx.

Tried a few cars and really loved this which surpirsed me as I didn't enjoy a 430 spider I drove as much as the Murci.

Wanted something newer than the 02 cars and too many story 05 plate Murci's out there and 640's are not what I need right now.

Need a dailyish version of s supercar and this is it.

Manetto modes are fantatsic in all as I had the test passenger clinging to the seat....well not really but it sounded good!!

Sweet. I'm not a huge fan of Ferraris when it comes to styling with the exception of the F430 coupe and F355. The F430 is how the 599 should look, Ferrari's flagship models always let me down in that respect. Are you going to have it de-catted/fitted with a sports exhaust?

Paul,

Congrats on the new car. The 430 will never match the Murcie in my eyes but it might make it a bit easier to live without the Lambo.

If you want some pics taking of it if you do decide to take to the track just drop me a line.

Regards

Tim

Oi watch it Tom Cruise!!!!


It's only cos you've got the only non-bashed 05 car out there!!!

Seriosuly if that white egear Murci 05 car hadn't been "THAT" car I'd have had that all day long, but I think for what I want the car to do that spec is the spec fop me!!

Also when the new business gets further on, I'll just keep that for my runaround!! LOL



AND Tim, sounds good mate, will keep in touch for any track days!!

Hi mate, no it was a trade-in, car is not brand new, but I did mean arriving in Scotland as it's coming from Maranellos.

I believe Paul didn't end up buying the car as it was 'not as described'
