    Graham,

    My address has been e-mailed.

    I have always thought that your F40 was special because it the last-of-a-series and beacause it was owned at new by a famously wealthy man (not unlike yourself) who loved/loves cars. But not because it is a 1992 :)

    Yes you are correct the rear valance can become misaligned if the technicians who remove it do not take care to re-install it correctly.

    1990 736 miles asking $683k

    1991 5,700 miles asking $599k (chassis number 89216, the 133rd USA F40)

    1991 3,401 miles asking $575k (chassis number 87812, the 113th USA F40)

    1992 13,180 miles asking $Call (chassis number 92779, the 194th USA F40)

    I have no affiliation with any of the above but hopefully its useful information to some. Contact details of individual,cars can be found at www.dupontregistry.com

    I have 2 cars available at opposite ends of the spectrum:

    1992 15,000 miles asking $495k
    1990 462 miles asking $750k

    I have noticed cars being sold now going to end-users who are real enthusiasts.
    I have noticed a few cars that have had issues being brought out to have them corrected, and my guess is that now that the owners think they have significant value they are taking care of them better.
    This all bodes well for the cars desirability and future value.

    That would be 87812. The highest bid I saw was $471k, but prehaps there were others.

    Ebay auction shows as ended with reserve not met. I do believe he may be talking about it being sold OFF of ebay. Either way, would be good to know.

    Best images of our trip...

    Apologies for the off-topic but I think I do more than my fair share here such as to grant me a small allowance. This time I ditched the EF 15mm fisheye I like in favor of the EFS 18-55mm...

    Dear Comrade joe sackey,

    Wonderful images of your family - absolutely delightful; I hesitate to say perfect, but well, yes, quite perfect indeed!

    With kind regards,

    Graham,

    Im quite sure that you are clearly aware that when one speaks of one's beloved family, there is no such thing as perfection.

    Now if you are speaking about the lines on the Miura SV's coachwork, that my freind is another matter...

    Speaking of the USA F40, the attached was prepared for me by a USA Ferrari employee involved directly with the cars. We have seen a version of this before and in fact we have a more detailed breakdown of all the differences between USA and Euro cars posted elsewhere on this thread.

    Dear Jim,

    Believe me, I do know about dysfunctional families. And your little conclave looks really quite perfect to me.

    Vasco I would cite you for a 'repost' except that you have reminded us what a set of inconel open pipes looks like so I must let this one go :)
