    Looks very like a late Mondial wheel to me.

    Thanks to this image, my wife has fallen in love with the Mondial! :D

    We've been watching old Top Gear reviews:

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccm2L8krtcU]Ferrari Mondial review - YouTube[/ame]

    She was in tears of hysterics at just how sexist and self-deprecating the reviewer is, but really liked the look of the car. I knew we'd eventually find a Ferrari that would captivate her interest! :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Cool clip. The Valeo Mondial, a rare beast.

    You could do a lot worse than a silver Mondial, they look fab in the metal. And the late 'T' model has the same 300bhp engine as your beloved 348.

    If we can ever do a "his and hers" one day, it'd be cool to have the same engines so that we could do services in tandem. :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    This from a guy who solved a polarity reversal problem by wearing kitchen gloves! :D

    [Still one of the funniest tales I've ever read here BTW - Car caught fire IIRC.....]

    Fer sure, I don't think Mrs Neuro would allow you *near* her car! ;)

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Correction: Mrs Neuro won't allow me *near* her car... again. It was actually her car I set on fire - though somehow I still convinced her to marry me anyway. :eek:

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Late Mondial 3.2/3.4 or late 328.
    Rears are wider than fronts.
    Regards Roy
