    well if the owner got a hardtop then it would be a no brainer. simple, buy a hairdresser spec car and cop the flak.

    GTS's are not hairdresser cars they are the quintessential magnum birth cars. they are not called convert"a"bles,

    and i dont need a style wand, i have hairdressers do that for me

    that might be *production* numbers, but in real-life terms you're far more likely to see cars that were bought 'to be seen in', hence the overwhelming spider spotting ratio.

    my hairdresser is called a barber and I only need to see them once every 6 months .... weird how the hair has grown back over some of the skin grafts and not others :confused:

    and that can't be true that someone would sell their house so they can buy a 355 ??!!

    I could have a nice 430 and live in a dump of a house I owned if I did that !!

    or a 430, 355ch, QV, 246 and rent .....

    or buy 120 Hyundais and go into the car rental business

    or buy the house my wife wants and be lucky to own the QV :(

    try 242 hyundais and 113 kias, and why would it not be true someone would sell their house to buy a 355 with 8 legs, this is a known fact, accept it , but something that wouldnt be publicised cos its not the done thing..


    but in all seriousness its wankers like this that give ferrari owners a bad name, and the hairdressers are just like sheep, they follow the pied piper and it ends up being a greek tragedy or worse a renta house party

    There I was momentarily concerned that PP was saying something complimentary about OHOS', then I read the last line.

    THanks PP, its nice to start the day with a chuckle!

    re the earlier posts about 330GT's.

    The silver car above is usually driven indecently quickly by Ken B and manages to keep modern F-cars in its wake. I think it looks rather nice too.

    I have no idea how he does it (the brakes on a 330 are appalling) but it demonstrates what these older cars are capable of when skillfully driven.
