AMEN and roger-that! Far to may fish in the sea to go all gaga over just one. If it was/nt for a certain part of female anatomy, they would be stacked 50 high at the tip... Best doing a Mokbel, lost his Ferrari, but hey, kept his $20+ million and did a runner [IMHO, he is still in Australia somewhere, living it up] M
Nice story. Except for the suicide part of it. Silly people that do that. Then again, I will probably take on some HUGE debt and end up in a pile of sh*t and end it that way also. Life rolls on......
Saw Testarossa Spider about 10 minutes ago just outside of Terrigal at a place called Erina when I was going to Blockbuster he was parked beside us... didn't get chatting to him unfortunately.. Would of been good to get to know him as I think he just bought it, saw the same one a couple of days ago.. next time ill get some pics hopefully. looked nice
S/N 62363, One of the very first into the country (1985 model). I used to see the car (and the Amazon blonde Girlfriend) at John Allan's workshop all the time. She was very tall, I am 6ft and shorter than her. Also very gorgeous FWIW, also seemed very nice. The car was frequently seen outside night clubs around town and was VERY rough cosmetically. Door dings and scratches etc everywhere. The car later went to Ian Meldrum (not the Rock Journo). I believe Ian developed and ran Supermarkets at the time. No idea where the car is today. The reported reason for his suicide was financial (big time property developer b4 the recession).
Ferrari Testarossa Spider? Wow. What colour? I did not know there were any in Aus. Here are pics of a 512TR from Japan from a workshop that converts them apparently. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Blonde Amazon is a social writer in the Herald/Sun on a Sunday.Writer of all the crap about her own girlfriends yawning crap.
yeah Im almost sure it was a soft top Testarossa, unless my eyes were deceiving me and he just had his roof painted black the car was rosso corsa. Ill definitely try and get a pic next time I'm driving about and see him.. I'm around 70% sure it was a spider but dont hold me to it... as now you guys are making me doubt it
Thanks for the heads up! I once sold John Allan a motorised push-bike.He is a real nice guy.We talked a bit about Ferrari's and Italian cars in general, he claimed Ferrari's are not as expensive to own like most make out, NFI....? I asked him what he wanted the motorised bike for, he said he was going to ride the bike to Ferrari owners place, leave the bike, and take the Ferrari back to the workshop to service, then the reverse back... It was a ok idea [i think he is in BoxHill?] but what if they lived in Mornington or similar, the bike only did 30km/h would take him hours...[i tampered with my bike, changed the CDI and coil, fettled the carby etc and got it up to about 50km/h] As for Amazon girl, i want to see a picture, she is WAY to tall for Italian-stock, sure she aint Brazilian?Photo please! Looks like she writes books? http://www.booktopia.com.au/featuredbook1.asp?StoreURL=booktopia&bookid=1740662806 M
