    Been fairly quiet on the news front, I know the club has a stand but no idea on details.

    I'll be there tomorrow, I'll take the camera. ;)

    Sure did! In fact, here I am giving him a few pointers ...

    While I was with him, people would constantly (and rudely) interrupt him for autographs and photos, but he just took it all in stride, bent over backwards to make people feel comfortable.

    Absolute legend.

    When he speaks publicly he often refers to being called unlucky. But he flips that on his head, saying he was one of the luckiest drivers of his era - so many of his contemporaries died!

    Many forget that he won Le-Mans with Bruce Mclaren in '66 in a GT40.

    I stopped in my 308Gt4 the day the 328 was outside the pub, but didn't go in. How do you make contact with this group. In Darfield and surrounds there are:

    1 400i
    1 246 Dino
    1 308 gt4
    1 550

    We could have added to the party and we all actually drink a few beers at that pub!!!

    Make contact.

    I'm not sure how good your pointers are - you have missed the corner apex by 2m!

    Some Ferraris out and about not far from Kirwee.
    If you want to meet up with other owners go onto the NZ ferrari web site and there is a number for the South Island .
