    I don't think that's a lot of miles for this car, maybe if you look in comparison to other Ferrari's then it could be considered a lot of miles but cars that sit are going to be more costly to get right than a car that is used regularly and maintained correctly. This things is the best part of 15 years old and that's an average of 5,000kms per year. Hardly high kms IMO.

    I would have no concerns buying a Ferrari at 150,000 kms so long as the service history shows no differed maintenance and the car stacks up to a good inspection.

    All that being said, I drive my cars, if I wanted garage art I would buy a poster.

    Neither would I. :):)

    We dont normally see that many Ferraris for sale here in Aus with speedo's reading that many km. :D:D

    That odometer alone would scare away 99% of potential buyers here in Aus. :p:p

    I wonder if the valves have been done in that paticular car? Would be nice to see some more pics of it. Thats even if it IS a CH. :D:D

    He has none of the old Challenge parts, so I'd venture to say "nothing special" and better to buy a really good regular 355B for same or less money.

    i really can't see how market will fall in short term, heaps of new immigrants coming in, overseas students similar to my age are mostly P/R converted and now buying places with o/s money, many of them cash strapped.

    they've sold off that Doncaster golf course to a Chinaman, they gunna build god knows how many units/townhouses/appartments there.

    You will run into affordability issues, regardless of limited supply and imigration. Average house price touted as being $1 million in a few years. How many people can afford that?

    Yes, so true, I can't comprehend how prices continue to rise the way they are, not sustainable IMO. The average wage is around $50-55k today.

    LOL. You idiot Bobby. :D
