Gents,

I have the tool kit but am missing the tyre kit. Maybe I'll assemble one piece by piece over ten years....unless Wofgang's tactics pay off and we get two for half the price!

Hehehehe....

Price just went up to 737 Pound Sterling...

;-)

Are you in a rush with it?

If I have some more time, I can probably get them cheaper.

Are you guys seated well and firmly?

This is the list price for the toolkits for the F355 (so I expect the 308 and 328 to be in the same range):

Toolkit: Euro 737
Tire Kit (with jack etc but not the spare wheel of course): Euro 1257

NOT joking!

Prices do not yet include shipping...

Will let you know if I have the price for the correct ones on your cars.

What`s up with a package deal Jack?
Double order for half of the price?!?
I`m also searching for the original tool-kit for my 308QV - I believe its the same?

Hi again Mark,

>>>How difficult will it be to get a tool kit for my 1986 328 GTS?

VERY difficult! (Driving up the price now... and kidding... Hahahah!).

I'm looking into it right now, will let you know if I find one and at what price (but they are really not that easy).

I wish I had attended races in that era, sure was a lot more "real" racing than it is now...

Good Evening Jack,

Hey - I was at this race!! http://www.ferraristuff.com/en-us/p_787.html ...and believe that I still have an audio tape I made of those magnificent 12 cylinder Ferrari engines!

I also remember the hangover from hell!! By the way, I have also collected two great Jody Scheckter autographs from that era.

Nice stuff on your site.

ups sorry, still working beside the chat on my finacel-bilance/report for the VAT & tax to pay.
So time to say good night B4 I will do a mistake.
It was a very long & hard day. But this chat tonight was one of the best I have ever had.

Thanks to all gents you made my day:

800 sites - wow!!
Just back from your side and I found my fault!
YES, you can scroll down also on the left side/frame. So I MUST go back to see the other 500/600 sides, oh I`m so stupid!!!
Faststats Analyzer thats the best one, in my opinion. I`m not sure but I think we use the same one. All this duty is done by an employer and I know so less - just get the results every week.
I will ask him tomorrow and let you know

It is actually well over 800 at the moment...

I was just kidding about the "every 5 minutes".

I use Faststats Analyzer which gives a pretty cool insight in the visitors behaviour.

Do you use a similar program?

mmmmhmmm, yes I`m comming over t-online but I have been on every side (287?)! Maybe you only see the visitors from the start page `cause I open in a new browser (right mose click) each other side. To be honest I know those problems to identify the visitors. I`m running my firm web-site since 7 years and its realy very important to see where does they comes from, how long they stay, which sides are most saught after...a.s.o.

Out of office reply.

Unfortunately I can not attend your postings at this moment as I am franctically looking for a high-volume provider to host www.FerrariStuff.com this due to the increased traffic on the website since I joined FerrariChat.com.

Oddly enough, since this evening, the only traffic generated is for the welcome page and seems to be caused by T-Online, Germany and occurs every other 5 minutes.

Looking into the matter.

Will be back soon.

So go for it as long as you can!
I have changed my life a coupel of years ago. A few friends of mine got their first heart-attack and myself, I was very close to it. Working every day 12-14 hours, 6 days a week, lots of travelling around the world.
Now, I enjoy much more my free time with my family and I take a break whenever i need it.

What about PC-Anywhere?
Do you know this kind of working? I don not fix my computer, web-site, software...a.s.o. Its done from a dear friend of mine a few hundred kilometers away. I`m just going online, conect with him and he can work, fix everything on my PC. Of course no hardware.

i mainly install broadband internet connections
from time to time there are some more normal projects and then i can be in an office, but for the rest it's on the road.
for now i like this job, i'm basically my own boss, i never go into the office, i have my phone and portable with me, that's how i stay in touch with the office and how i get my clients.
i'm on the road a lot and have a lot of contact with other people so it's fun

try to make some extra money for the hidden-camera show?
No, no sorry thats not funny. Sure I know the rules working, making money, do not ask any questions.....
20 years back (now I`m 43years) I was in the same situation and I know it sucks and needs no more comments or kidding about. Hope your life will change to the sunny side!!!!

No, i'm only 23
and that's the problem i have fun in my job, i work on the road, drive from client to client and enjoy myself, don't worry, i wasn't injured in that crash, just some damage on the car, the engine was still running, but the cooler was hit, so i needed to be towed.
i'm working almost 2 years here now, and i'm already on my second car.
And it aren't always car injuries
a while back i was standing on a ladder trying to reach some connections and the ladders lid away from me, so i fell down 2 meters onto concrete, now that hurts a lot
luckely my phone still worked so i was able to call for help.
a week ago, one of my co-workers bumped his head trying to reach a connections and his head was open, 2 months ago another one fell thru a false seeling, and so keeps the list going on

well most of us are already used to it.
if i would count the times that "i almost had an accident", well then i would probably be to scared to keep driving a car, but hey i can't help it.
i've been hit several times already, mostly without real damage, except last year, when i crashed into the back of somebody when we where both trying to avoid a drunken driver

probably an opel again
the problem is the one that i have now is a full leasing, wch is up, so i need to give this car back
But, now we aren't with that leasing company anymore, and the firm gets long term rental cars.
long term beeing 4 months
so that means that with my next car i will have a new car every 4 months, but the contract says that i get an opel astra, but sometimes that rental company can't give an astra, and then they deliver what they have standing.
so i always get a station, and some of the cars that already have been used by co-workers are:
Citroen Xsara, Golf 4, and even in 2 cases because they didn't have anything of that category a C5 and a Laguna :-)

Hopefully not again an Opel?!?
In most firms you usual got a budget for the car and you have the oportunity to make the choice. So try to get a BMW, Alfa or ....but please not an Opel. Or, are you working at Opel?

Dirk,

There is actually nothing wrong with an Opel as a daily driver!

Let me know when you will drink a beer with Wolfgang because I will probably join the group :-)

Hey Dirk,

STILL FRIENDS ?
Sorry,UploadI realy didn`t want to bother you. I was just kidding. But for most of us its our second language we discuss here in this great forum. So, misunderstandings are usual and this is not the first time and won`t be the last time that the translation is not perfect and makes troubel with understanding.
Come on lets have aUploadtogether

Real funny that the posting of Dirk, had such a great response :-)

It really shows how Fchat.com works.
Once some1 is "insulted" (Although not in this tread) a lot of people start "defending".
The world could learn from here.

Wolfgang, I'd love to go to Maranello, although time and finance forbid me to go :-)
Hope you have a hell of a time, but that shouldn't be to hard I guess.
And we'll be waiting on your full 3 A4's report with pictures :-)

Dirk,

sorry, for the misunderstanding 550=Maranello. I haven`t seen the context you thought about. But its still more exciting with a 308 in front of the city-sign of Maranello as an Opel Astra in front of the city-sign of RüsselsheimUpload, ups sorry I`m joking again

Jack,
"You either need to have a SERIOUS talk with your boss...."
Cooool statement!!!!

Hey Gents lets have fun, laugh and a bit humour its just a choke!

Back to the thread:
Is there anybody else who wants to go to Maranello for a weekend trip?

Wolfgang

You either need to have a SERIOUS talk with your boss or seek other employment...

AN OPEL !?

Oi!! In South Africa the Easter Weekend was always the worst for people in the medical professions. There were (and still are) literally hundreds of people killed on the roads, and even more injured. One reason NOT to go driving on a public holiday - people seem to lose their minds (and lives)!

I understood what Dirk meant right away! Of course he did not want to say anything bad about the beautiful 308. He only meant to say 550 Maranello!

It is just a small misunderstanding.

Ton :-)

btw Wolfgang nice picture

Wolfang, i didn't mean that i don't like the 308.
Far from, i want one
i meant that the pic would be funny if it was a 550 parked there
550 = maranello

and it's not my fault that i have an astra, i drive what i get from my boss

Dirk,

I will post another pic from Maranello again with the 308QV and NOT a 550 in May and later in October I will be there again with my (hopefully I will find the right one till October) Testarossa. But no pic with an Opel Astra;-)
But to be honest, we realy drive also like you an Opel Astra for daily use.

Joren,

Thanks and we will do as much pics as possible. Of course we know Zanassi( close to the F1 building) & Toni (on the main street beside the main factory). 3 weeks to go...can`t wait any longer to visit my "mother" again.

Forza Ferrari

Wolfgang

Dirk, how can you something like that??? Those 308's are absolutely magnifique. It's an Americana isn't it???
Beautiful car Wolfgang, nice holidays and don't forget to stop at Carrozeria Zanassi and Toni as well, both in Maranello!!!

We will be from 09.-15. May in Bardolino (Gardasee) for vacation and will visit
the Lamborghini 40th Anniversary meeting in Santa Agata over the weekend 10.-11 May.
On Thursday 15.May will will drive direct from Bardolino to MARANELLO.
We will stay here for 4 days in a Hotel in Maranello/Fiorano.
--15.May � 18.May�
Maybe we can visit the factory, Galleria Ferrari, Fiorano Race Track, enjoy the Italian food
& wine and driving around the beautiful Maranello, Modena region?
Anybody interested in a smal meeting over the weekend in Maranello?


Wolfgang
