Well, the ad's done!

[burriana]

Have eventually got around to doing the For Sale ad for the Spider. Have to say it's been one hell of a fun year and I could not have asked any more from my first Ferrari. 3000 miles belting around Europe and the Alps in the first three weeks, then taking it down to visit Burriana Beach in Nerja on the Costa del Sol last month. Fantastic, simply no other word for it.

I just hope i am not making an almighty mistake and that the next one treats me as well

So, what's next?

[minimax]

testarossa if I recall correctly...

[v15ben]

Sad to see it going Al, still one of the best sounding Ferraris and best lookers I have ever seen in the flesh!

Roll on the next Prancing Horse

Yep, Tom's right, the 512 Testarossa to be precise, however... I have not dismissed the obvious advantage of a 456. All the power of the V12 but a 2+2, which means it would be a lot more usable... still not a TR though is it.

Saw an engineer guy a few years back had fitted a baby/child seat in the middle of a TR. He may even be on here! Granted, he was a bit gutted cos his kid was getting too big for the seat.

No yellow ferrari

[minimax]

didn't they make TR's in yellow?

[v15ben]

They made some yellow ones I think but not 100% sure.

O/T, but how are your new car plans going Tom???

Cheers Rico, I have a shot of a superb yellow 512Tr that I have been trying to upload onto Fotango for the last 45 mins, but Fotango appears to be acting up as usual and won't upload!

First colour pref will still be Rosso Corsa over tan though.

What a car. Spent one of the best afternoons of my life in that car (no jokes, Al knows the day I mean )

Sad to see it go, matey, but bring on the 512TR !!!

[burriana]

yep, it is one of the highlights, high up in the Alps, sweeping 90 mph left hander cutting through a bright green mountain pasture, just the slightest bit of drift ... aah, that was a day

[tonyhetherington]

don't forget what we were following, also (ooohh that noise. Of course, that was pre-tubi!).

I feel a nostalgic picture moment coming up...

[burriana]

BIG

[Mobster Raks]

shame to see it go, been interesting reading about all your adventures!... although, i'm sure there's more to come!

[burriana]

Cheers Raks Definitely more to come... just might go through a bit more petrol in the next one!

Just noticed you have a Cobra replica... bumped into one waiting to board the ferry at Santander the other week. From what I could gather he seemed to spend most of the time on one continuous road trip round Europe, which seems perfectly reasonable to me
