Bob Houghton Ferrari

[pentoman]

This is very local to me... is it an interesting place to go and visit? Do they have cars on show/for sale? Thought I might drop by this weekend, it's about 1/2 hour drive and I have nothing better to do, is it worth my time or shall I not bother?

thanks

From my very limited knowledge of Ferrari it is very good.

Fairly local to me lots to see and good people to deal with see www.racecar.co.uk/bobhoughton

from the pics i've seen they seem to have very nice premises with quite a large showroom.
they must have a good rep amongst the Ferrari buying public because they sell quite a few cars through the classifieds on here. The F512M and the F40 they have got have definetely got to be worth a look!

Thoroughly recommend a trip there. They were fantastic when I was looking for my car even though I eventually didn't buy from them. Very friendly and you'll see a more interesting array of rare cars that you will at most main dealers.

Cool, good to hear .

I will mention that I went to school with Bob Houghton's sons... that will get me a test drive in an Enzo no doubt!

bought my stradale from there recently. Wouldnt recommend going on a weekend because all the cars are packed away in the workshop. Showroom only holds four cars (currently 355,testarossa and cant remember other two) - most of their more exotic cars are sold on commission and therefore still reside at the owners houses'.

worth going in the week tho - some awesome stuff in the workshops.

if youre around next sat (25th) we have a convoy of 30+ Fcars going there.
