    Thanks for all the great comments guys, I wholeheartedly agree as to how great Rosso looks on the 456.

    As Dave has said F456 RED is staying at home at the weekend.

    I am booked in for track time at S/stone and I'm bringing the Merc - pictured below with the Mondi - which is 4 sale in FerrariAds:D(sorry Tony).

    Need to spend some serious time on the road with the 456 b4 tracking her.

    My dad is looking for a 456 with auto gearbox, could i ask what year yours is and how many miles are on it? Where did you buy it, private or trade?

    cheers

    Oh and by the way I think it looks great in Red, the dark ones just don't appeal to me (yes I know I am in the minority!)

    Did you get the plate on the car or buy it separately?

    Steve(512BBI) was interested in a GTA as well so it might be worth contacting him.

    Also I found this thread helpful and added to it accordingly;

    KHPC have a number of GTA's for sale here;

    http://www.theferraricentre.co.uk/

    Mention my name as there selling my Mondial at the moment and they might reduce the commission a bit!:D

    Mines a 1995 with 33k miles FFSH and I bought it privately from an ad on the FOC website.

    Plate came with the car - was the subject of much bartering I can tell you!

    Previous owner had paid well in excess of £5k for it - given there are only about 10 red 456's in the country, I didn't think the plate was worth anything like that, suffice to say he finally agreed and plate stayed on the car.

    I have to say initially I wasn't that bothered about it, although I bo have a 'thing' for private plates - see other photos. But when I actually saw the plate on the car for the first time I thought it was the icing on a blooming lovely cake!!:D:):)

    Thanks to all of you who have said such nice things about the plate as well.:)

    Cheers Kevan

    Kevan,

    VERY nice looking car !

    Glad I was able to contribute to the persuasion that you got from Fchatters to buy a 456. Hope you enjoy it.

    Happy motoring.
