    Looking at the last post on the 355 register thread of the written of car. This makes me raise this question/query. When such cars do get added to the register, what will you do with the information? Do you make a note in the description that the car was or is written of?
    I raise this question because on this thread posted two days ago on the UK section there is a ex-written of 348 that found its way back into the buyers market. http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=139847
    And as some of you may know i get very pissed of when i see ferrari ids and chassis numbers sold on ebay. like there was two weeks ago were a dude was selling the stamped chassis bit and registration documents for a UK 355 in Germany.:D:D
    Really pisses me of because it could be one of our cars on here that is stolen to have its id changed.
    IMO i think that if you have prof that a 355 has been written of like the one posted in the 355 register thread. Let it be know on your register and maybe keep the photo for future inquires/investigation. Its a vital service that you are doing for the 355 comunity and future 355 buyers so this subject is deadly serious IMO.
    what do you think dude?

    Perfect;) That will save some one alot of pain and cash loss as in the link i posted.
    And i think its a good idea not to maybe write the words "write of", not that you did mind. Because maybe this could drag you into legal arguments. So yes the wording you use is good.

    Its relay self explanatory mate. did you read the link i posted?? Had that car been on a register then maybe it would not have been resold as a good car. So if anyone knows of a written of 355 then maybe it should be added to the 355 register with a comment like the exampe that 285ferrari has done. This is to help future owners. Cant explain it any better than that dude.;)

    So the registry would start turning into another "carfax"....... I thought it was mainly to catalog colors, trans configuration, options and location :eek:

    My appologies dude (chaa)...I just thought Robbie was doing more than enough by starting/running the 355registry...... But I suppose it would be his decision........;)

    Os--I understand what chaa is saying. Especially about the wrecked or accident cars. I will put all possible info I can in the registry about any and all 355's just short of a Carfax report..Any info you guys help gather would be appreciated. I could use as much info as possible. The more I add to it--the more it can help future buyers, sellers, etc...

    Agreed brother:) 285 is indeed doing a stirling job. And any ways we can help the dude we should. One never knows the 355 registry could be the 355 bible of the future.
