Are the "Sports Car [buying] Guides" on the FoC site good?

[jquin]

There are buying guides on the Ferrari Owners' Club. Has anyone tried them (specifically for the 550)? Are they any good? Worth £8? Thanks in advance.

Yeah, but Tony I think he means *good* advice Doesn't need to be much of a cost/benefit to be worth £8. I was going to say that was the cost of a washer, but on reflection, I can't think of one that's as cheap as that...

I bought a 355 guide before purchase. For £8 you don't expect the earth but you do not get any info that cannot be obtained elsewhere. It is also, understandably perhaps, not as forthcoming as this site or ferrarichat with commonly experienced issues on the cars.

Jonathan,

I purchased a copy of the 360 buyers guide - only for reference purposes I might add

If your interested I could send you a copy - see what you think before you purchase the 550 guide. Let me know.

Regards,
Jason.

That would be interesting as a guide. Tried to PM you but it bounced back. Do you want to e-mail me another e-mail address?

Thanks in advance.
