Fair play. Like someone else said they’ve only gone and taken the roof off. Couple of pods behind driver and passenger and Bob’s your mother’s lover. Most of us on here could have had a punt how it would look.

So keeping you guys updated with what’s going on in my collection.
Had my Ferrari 330 back after it being with R&D in Eccles for fking months!!!!! Don’t think I’ll be using them again, well after they finish tuning my carbs on my Daytona.
We did a swap around and they took my Daytona away for some carb fettling. Had them replace the master slave cylinder on 330 and the handbrake cable. Yep all fine, set off for Leeds from Cheshire, not too bad. 30 miles or so I could hear a knocking coming from the rear (and it wasn’t the Hooker in the boot because she was full of ether). Turns out the prop has gone so that’s even more money down the stter. Apart from that it’s ran pretty sweet.
The Daytona was cutting out last week and generally running like John Prescott on sports day. So now that’s gone in for a tune up.
Anyway, picked up 1 of my 2 Pista’s from Leeds today. This one is a runaround Pista whereas the next one will be very special.
Going back to Italy on Thursday to see my new 812 GTS (that’s what they are swaying to for the name of the 812 RHT) and my F8 Tributo Spider.
Oh yeah and my 250 Lusso has now been repaired by the good guys at Ferrari Wilmslow.
I jumped Ashley bridge and when I landed I smashed the near side wheel bearing and a top arm. So needless to say it was shaking like Michael J. Fox after a line of Colombian marching powder.
So yeah that’s been my life in cars this past few months.
Oh yeah and I’m getting a Bugatti Chiron.

Haha, I said runaround Pista, not run about Pista. In other words, this is a Pista that I’m not bothered about smashing the miles on it or generally abusing it. The other Pista will get wiped down with my nutsack after every drive.

^ it looks like Pete is using a “local” wave in the pic driving the Daytona hehe I’m glad you’ve managed to find some time for some more petrol adventures with everything you say is going on in your life....I’m guessing the car stuff is a good form of escape from some of the other stuff.

Talk about a false perspective, I’m actually waving one of the car spotters over as I give out free rides. You can see it’s open palmed.
Yeah the car stuff is a great way to escape the other stuff.
