My pride and joy, my first Ferrari, is going this morning. I can say that in my 11 months of ownership, near 5000 miles, the 360 has been incredible. It's as happy to go to the shops as a decent hoon on the continent. It always made me feel special, always started (had no issues or problems at all), always made me smile and I am genuinely gutted that she is going. Owning a Ferrari has always been a dream and it gets under your skin. There will be another.

On the plus side Tim (Walkersport) is picking her up and passing her on to the next lucky owner. As for me, have a new (German) baby arriving this afternoon, and a very real baby arriving in 7 weeks. Hence reason for selling. And with the wonders of man maths, Ive managed to downsize to a newer and more expensive car. But it has ISOFIX and I can turn the airbag off...

If there is anyone thinking of buying a 360 but is unsure - I have one thing to say: Do it! Get a good car, and enjoy.

Giving it back to Tim for a number of reasons, but mainly because of his reputation. People will trust his cars, as I did, and I suspect there will be a higher demand and potentially a higher price - there are so few 'good' cars out there. It's also a lot cleaner and easier from my side.

As for subtle pointing in his direction (!), don't know what you mean.... But someone already has first dibs on it so I am not sure if it will even go up on his site.

It hurts not walking past the car every morning. But the 997 gen 2 C4S with full aerokit on it (and ISOFIX...) isn't a bad sight.
