I wouldn't go for a new one at this point, TBH. With it having been out a few years already, I'd rather put my name down for the replacement when it comes out.

There are a few F430's for sale in the PH classifieds section. Heres a few with the same colour you are looking for:

2005 - www.pistonheads.com/sales/115657.htm
2005 - www.pistonheads.com/sales/83829.htm
2006 - www.pistonheads.com/sales/131238.htm
2007 - www.pistonheads.com/sales/134521.htm

The 2007 car isn't an F1. But it would be a new car without you having to join the the waiting list.

Good luck hope you find the car you are looking for.

I e-mailed all dealers 5 weeks ago. Spiders are minimum 2 years max 3 years. Coupes are up to 2.5 years but I did get offered an October build slot. Finally got a May build slot due to cancelled order.It makes no difference whether you want F1 or manual.

Ayup Mark! - I didnt know you had procured a 430 Spyder! (you kept that quiet)

Not heard from you in ages, what are you trading up into after the 430 ?

Mark, I am sticking to no more than 2 forums at any one time (it just gets far to time consuming otherwise). Yep, had the Gallardo for 14 months now - a World Record for me and testament to how good the car is - still managed to hop in and out of a fair few others motors over the last year though! I'm still on PureGT mainly (did you ever get invited in over there ? - if not email me and I will sort it). I'm still trying to reduce my lappy bar issues though

14 months!!! clap that will have saved you about 30 grand in depreciation, swapping cars every 3 months can be painful

trying to find a car i can keep for more than 5 mins.
