    I entered it in a thread, probably in Sept 09 where photos and numbers were listed. I'm 700 miles away from car right now, I'll check when I get back.

    Hi Mike,

    I have an 83 Mondial QV and am looking for a new leather boot cover. Where did you get yours, it's beautiful!

    Hi Brandon,

    I picked it up on Ebay for $400, choice of Black or Tan Leather Boot:
    link here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ferrari-Mondial-Boot-Cover-1984-1994-/270728180738?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item3f08a83402#ht_1333wt_1064


    This seller has been selling these replacements for years, great quality product but you will have to punch the holes yourself. Pretty easy to do, the buttons screws on, no need for special tools or anything. enjoy!

    -Mike

    Thank you all guys. I love this car! It's a 1990 t Euro spec.
    Yesterday was a beautiful day, my wife is attending a photography course, so we took the car and did some shots.

    Hi Lino,
    If I look to some ferraristi Italian forum and to some car buy-and-sell web sites (for having an idea, take a look at this one, it's one of the most popular in Italy http://www.autoscout24.it/ ), I would say yes, there are quite a lot. For sure not as many as contemporary 3x8, but quite a lot.
    The problem is that Mondial (especially coupé) is one of the most cheap to buy Ferraris (in Italy a coupé costs around 10-15K € less a than a 3x8 and a convertible around 5-10K € less; only 308 GT4 and non turbocharged 208s are cheaper), but it is as expensive to maintain as all other '80s 8 cylinder Ferraris. Not everybody who has 20 to 35 K € to buy one has both enough money to maintain it and enough “car culture” to spend every year a relevant percentage of the car value to maintain it. So it is quite easy to find bad examples standing since years in car traders showrooms.
    Regards
    Roberto

    I went on the site, there quite a few. I even found 89 like mine red with grey interior. I hope I get my car by the weekend. My mechanic thinks he can finish by then.

    I wish you to be able to take a ride this weekend. As for me, I'm afraid not: bad weather forecast for Milan! :-(

    Fellas, fall is almost over. Tomorrow is supposed to be a nice day, particularly here in the mid-Atlantic region. A few more photos please before these cars go into hibernation.

    Aaaaa you lucky guys my car is still in the shop. The engine is going in today. Hopefully it will be ready before it snows. Maybe I can drive one last time, my plan is to go north, there are nice roads in the ski resorts.

    My car was delayed as you all read because of the rear window motor, hey Roberto do you know where I can get a window motor in Italy, it's the same as a Fiat Hugo. I can send my cousin to get it for me. I would love to have one in stock.
