    Congrats! And no, those problems aren't typical of Ferraris so get yours looked at.

    Gears slipping sounds like a clutch issue. Hopefully the dealer will honour the ppi that I assume you had done before purchase. A clutch job I hear isnt cheap. About the windows not closing sounds like a minor fix unless the car had an accident with frame shifting. Since its occurring on both sides it sounds like an actuator glitch rather than collision related. Apparently there were a few 03 strads sold in Europe only.

    PS you have no business driving your CS in the rain, dont you know that your car will melt?

    PPS Jag vet vad du menar med avundsjuka.

    YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS BUYING FROM A FERRARI DEALER! THE CAR HAS 24000 KMS??? IT SHOULD BE LIKE NEW ESPECIALLY BOUGHT FROM A FERRARI DEALER.THEY SHOULD OF CHANGED THE CLUTCH IF NEEDED BEFORE THEY SELL IT TO YOU. I AM AMAZED!
    IT SHOULD BE A PLESURE TO DRIVE NOT A NIGHTMARE!
    IT MAY OF GONE INTO THE WRONG HANDS AND HAVE FAKE SERVICE HISTORY !

    HOPE ALL IS WELL NEXT TIME YOU GET IT BACK FROM SERVICE.
    GOOD LUCK WITH A VERY GOOD FERRARI ENTRY! MAD CAR!

    What can i say the taxes in Denmark are insane, i feel sorry for you but i love yor country otherwise, im often in Copenhagen.

    I sent him an email regarding the trackdays, is it the dealer or is it a private gathering?

    The other day with grc was full unfortunately.

    Thanks Mikael

    Yes its the dealer who arrenge the trackday - and is a ferrari / Maserati day only. They also handles everything about Ferrari Club in denmark - They are very nice and do some great events - here is my cell phone if any questions +45 26313335 Call me or tekst me if any questions..

    Try to call GRC - I know one of them (Jan Kalmar). Always within the week of the trackday - a car is broken down (Lotus or another racer). And there will be a ride for you..

    Thanks for the tip and nice meeting you, just as me you have a beautiful car congratulations!!

    It was real nice to bring my Ferrari to its real element.

    I use my Stradale quite alot and sometimes i get quite tired especially on longer trips or in town.

    BUT now i know where my Stradale wants to be, it was like coming home for here.

    The track is the place to be for my stradale and i also got quite bitten.

    I used to compete in roadracing in the Swedish and Nordic shampionships but i tell you, cars on the track are my thing above all.

    Im competing in the 12 hour endurance race at Mantorp Park 12-13 October in a Ferrari this year and im really looking forward to it, mabe ill se you there.

    Best Regards Mikael
