have just got the car out of storage and i am fortunate to know a ferrari master mechanic so i was going to get him to do a couple of bits as its not being used for a while... am thinking new plugs for instanc, is there anything else that might be worth doing?

someone suggested taking it out for a proper drive and adding some redex to the petrol....

cheers

Why not do a hundred miles (giving it an Italian tune-up) & then see what does not work before seeing your chap

Also if it has been standing a really long time have him check/change oil & brake fluid

replace coolant hose between the V in the engine - with Silicon hose, if not done already.
Likely to split if rubber, and be stood a long time.

Cambelts and other bits and bobs done 12 months ago at foskers so in theory should be good.... more just general running....
