Whom likes a Mondial?

Not bad really [emoji4]

 

Grow up

 

A properly functioning HVAC makes a huge difference to me when it comes to living with these cars

Weird science

 

was all the hoses and venting lines in good nick? Just asking if they well maintained when the shop that prepared it for auction last worked on it

 

4 invoices from 4 different Melbourne mechanics over the last 5 years, all “regas A/C, all seems fine, see how it goes” Probably another thing that drove the previous owner mad. Just ridiculous and lazy.

 

Name and shame ..I'm over PR BS from certain Shops in Melbourne on social media and there just dudders

 

Ahh the waft of unrelenting heat from that v8 just behind your ear, mmm, heady days with No air conditioning in a convertible in Sydney traffic [emoji24]

 

Yeah, you will love the Mondial when I sell it to you

 

There's a risk that the hoses you buy from a Ferrari parts place may have been sitting on the shelf for a long time, becoming porous.

Take your old hoses to EnZed and see if they can reuse your existing fittings on new hose.

 

Good idea, probably cheaper too

 

Funny how people differ - first instruction I gave the workshop when I first got my 308 - pull the aircon out, I don’t want it. Compressor has been sitting (wrapped up) on my garage floor for 21 years now! I can’t stand airconditioning and bowling along with the roof off and the wind in my hair is just how I like it!

 

Some people SHOULDN'T own a Ferrari or deserve what they buy purchase, as a member on here would say "There is NO cheap Ferrari" !?!?

I would say Champagne tastes but with beer money!

 

Proper enthusiasts don't need AC!

 

Fixed for accuracy!

 

while this is correct if the car does NOT have AC , but otherwise cheapskate material,as I said some people should NOT own a Ferrari / Champagne taste with beer money.

What do you drink?

 

My advice to Anyone wanting to own a 360 and actually use it regularly is budget $10,000 a year for maintenance, there you go [emoji4]

 

Not sure about the Mondi, but in the 308, you have to pass the hoses through the sill and THEN crimp the fittings on - they won't go through, otherwise. You've been warned. Just ship it up to @Gizzi , and he'll sort it out - he loves people that like paying more...

 

perhaps more for a 12-cylinder car ?

 

Actually I’ve no experience in the 12 cylinder cars so I couldn’t comment but these 20 odd year old cars with dated f1 technology will need refurbishing at some point plus the gearboxes get a hammering, the engine and chassis are the best bits .

 

Frankly, unless you own a Mondial, nobody cares what you think.

 

I've packed two books for you .

2. Mondials buyers guide .

 

I'll start pulling things apart later in the year when I have some time off. What could possibly go wrong

 

Explains why so many are ...............ed

 

What already in V-Cat with the current shop?
