getting closer now, went to foskers today and saw the car and it's better than I remember!! had a good chat with them and was very relieved to hear them say they thought the car was a minter in every way. This may of course be because they were being nice, safe in the knowledge that I'll be back in a few weeks facing a monumental bill :eek: But actually they seem like a good bunch, best of the Ferrari indy's I've been too - given they aren't even selling me the car they treated me as thought they were, 2 hours of their time, several cups of coffee, lot's of chat about my car, showed me round it and explained things in detail - and this wasn't even delivery, they said they'll give me a full handover once registered. So for a business with an F40, several Boxers and other wonderful Ferrari's in the showroom, not to mention a 250 with an £8 million price tag I really don't think you can say fairer than that!

so, some pics, but no spilling the beans on FB please, want to wait till it's in my grubby mitts :D

Seeing that tucked in my garage would put quite a wide smile on my face each morning. I know it's childish but if you are close to underground parking make sure you do the full acoustic check in there :) Cold start will be silly and anything with more revs will trigger car alarms.

We will need videos to verify this, of course :grouphug:
