    Goodday fellow Fchatters,

    I just want to let you know I sold the Dino 208gt4 this week and bought another Ferrari.
    It is a 1982 Mondial 8.
    Black leather interior
    Full maintenanced at Ferrari dealer Kroymans Hilversum
    77000km.
    Original US version but conversed to EU specs.
    1996 import from San Diego California.

    @Wolfgang: it is ROSSO CORSA. ;)

    I have seen a lot of Mondials and discussed with some of you what to buy or not. I know a 3.2 or T is much better/quicker but it all depended on the budget and we felt the time was there to "upgrade" to a Mondial.
    We like it very much and hope to have some wonderfull drive outs with our new car. It will be "delivered" in 2 or 3 weeks.

    In the future I will look for some nicer wheels!! (348wheels?)
    Here are some pictures:

    Fantastic choice Roel! Great car! I wish you all the best with this beautiful piece of machinery.
    Did you already take the family for a drive? Post more pictures!
    Do you feel the difference in Hp? What do you find the most striking difference between the two cars?

    Thanks Ton,
    I only drove it last monday for a 35km testdrive.
    Yes there is absolutly a difference in HP but it is not a huge boost.
    The Mondial feels more like a luxury car and the dino more as a go-kart.

    But hey, only drove 35km in it. Tell you more about it when I get it.
    I'll come over to Lanaken ones and you can experienece it yourselfs :)

    Roel, congratulations...! i, too, am interested in the chassis number, like Erik...

    More so, though, i'm interested in the chassis number and pictures of your Dino 208 GT4 - it's so rare to see them... :)

    Congratulations on your new purchase... i look forward to hearing your driving impressions...
