Aaron, I just sent you an email about the 550 tonight! Decided to do some reading on F-chat about 550M and stumbled across this. Mate, when you told me about this back in March, I thought you were crazy with the distance you were talking about. Now I read this whole thread and wished I could have picked one up with you too! Maybe I will need to get one so we can do a re-run of our little mountain and track joust like we did in our GT3/GT3RS.
Cheers Wayne, It was an awesome adventure and I look forward to catching up with you soon. I did email you today as well. Regards

OHHH CRAP, where is the REPOST police. get that out of my brain........I thought that was banished forever. Still quite funny however I wonder if HE uses a vent kit?
Update. So I decided to have a look see at where the 550 was.... And a quick google search found the NYK Pegagus tracking just South of Sri Lanka; http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/default.aspx?zoom=9&oldmmsi=353332000&olddate=8/21/2011 5:55:00 PM Some awesome software!!
Hi Aaron, A bit late finding your excellent thread, just read from page 1 to page 12!! So glad you had such a great time, it`s something all Ferrari owners need to do sometime in their life!! I did a trip much the same as yours a few years back in my 348 Spider, driving around 11,000 km in 7 weeks, I think its time to plan another visit back home for the 348 after reading about yours!! If you do this again you must drive down the A7 Milan - Genova, then take the A10 down to San Remo, its a beaut.... Best regards, Phil.
Thanks Phil, It was one of the best experiences that I have had and I am currently planning the next trip for next year. I think a 599 might be on the cards too...
Very nice! The 599 is a wonderful machine and I'm sure you would enjoy her immensely. Would the 599 be an addition to the 550 or a replacement? P.S. Send me a PM if you happen to pass by Monaco during your next Euro-trip
Thanks Carlo, the 599 would be in addition as it would remain in the UK for 18 months for the purpose of road trips. I will PM you 100% as I will be in m/c for either late January or June 2012. What is the weather like in Late Jan??
Some of you guys may remember that I did a tour in my 550 in 2011. And it's on again.... However this time I purchase an F12; http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/ff-f12/491225-touring-europe-my-f12-2.html#post144020892 Please feel free to drop in and say hi.
