Anyone got a 430 ?
Discussion
If you do you are a lucky git ! Test drive a F1 430 Spider this morning and its simply awsome. That engine note is wonderful. You deff dont need a tubi or anything instead IMO.
I have never liked the styling much, still dont really like the back and think its too high.
But sod that, the machine is incredable. If they had had one for sale , im sure i would have done something really silly. I left it with the salesman for him to call me when he gets 2nd hand ones in. Few people getting rid of coupes for Spiders but selling them onto premium dealers instead of back to the dealer.
Hopefully a black, dark grey or red F1 Spider will pop up in about 12 months !!!

Chris,
I've had one, check profile. Sold it on for a small fortune.
Got a Spider en-route.
Did you drive the Macari car?
Jon
No mate, it was Maranello's.
God i loved that car. Might have to have a re-think about this G Spider.
All i kept thinking about on the way home in my 360 was, damm, imagine how good the 430 CS is going to be !
Hey, when did you sell it, i past a LHD yellow 430 Coupe on the Kings Road about 2 weeks ago ! Was that you ?

Sold mine a couple of months ago, so not me i'm afraid. Macari's sold an identical one a couple of months ago - so may have been him.
aside - Rob Lay at Fchat is being a pr1ck.
Everyone can read whats going on there. He's showing himself up and damaging the best section on the whole web - im staying away.
Yep, I drove the Maranello F430 and echo your comments. What an awesome car 
Best car I've driven.
I do wish Ferrari had redesigned the front a bit to differentiate it more from the 360 - just so there wouldn't be so many 360/430 shaped F cars around on the roads
Bonnet area seems a bit flat IMO.
I think the 360 shape is slightly better than the 430 shape though...more flowing.

I saw one yesterday in Cardiff, red. Not anywhere near the look of the 360....maybe it was the driver that put me off. Loud garish shirt, aviator specs, ear ring and a bracelet you could have moored the QE2 on. A 360 cut me up the other day, local guy, same look, sort of bald middle aged pirate type...... runs 2nd hand motor trade opposite us.It's all going Pate Tong as they say.
