    I can remember when we couldn't even register 30 year old LHD cars, so we are making progress.

    You are still a young pup mate. :)

    By the time you are ready to hock it off, Pappy will be wealthy enough to buy it from you and drive it around the streets looking for young poon-tang. :p:p

    I predict some F40 owners might be in for a surprise when they front the registry office in 10yrs time. No further comment, so don't ask :p

    Awesome pics mate! :):)

    Thanks for sharing! There are not too many guys that share these types of "clean up" pics on their F50. :):)

    You are a perfectionist! I am looking forward to seeing this monster in the flesh. Ill be there in 2 weeks time. Please tell your butler to prepare the guest suite for Nicole and I. :D:D

    At the very least mate, looking forward to catching up with you and the other Mexicans. We will have to organise a dinner or something one night.
    I will be there the 23rd to the morning of the 26th. :):)

    The downside to F40/F50/Enzo ownership- the fuel bladders are "lifed" at 10 years. My car is 341 of 349 (+) and was made in 1998. Yet the tanks are dated variously 1995/1996. This indicates that the tanks were made in batches early in the production run (started 1995) and sat around until used throughout the production run.
    I got an official letter indicating my car is due for tank replacement. The dealer wants $18,604.70 for the job:

    FUEL TANK $13,834.05
    SAFETY SPONGES $1770.67
    LABOUR 20HRS $3000

    TOTAL $18604.70

    After market tanks are available from ATL and elsewhere for considerably less. Still pondering this one!

    The cars are not actually at home at the moment, though I am sure you can arrange to have a look at them. Look forward to catching up when you are down here.
