    Out of curiosity, the 308GT4 in the drive video is wearing larger wheels than standard. Which model wheels are they from?

    They are Compomotive 16" 3 piece wheels, made from the late 1970's onwards, aftermarket but popular in the era, used to have a set on my GTB.

    I had them on my GTB too - the rims are very soft and easily damaged on Sydney's potholed roads. I bought a set of factory 16's and never had a problem again.

    I think that's called onanism :)

    Explains the psyche of most too :)

    "Hypochondriasis, hysteria, chorea, epilepsy, apoplexy, and palsy, constitute part of the list of dire maladies induced or immediately excited, by onanism and immoderate or ill-timed coition. The memory and intellectual faculties, in general, are enfeebled, and there are instances of complete idiocy, brought on by early and continued onanism, and of insanity from similar excesses later in life. -- The Eclectic Journal of Medicine. Vol 3, No 4. Nov 1894. Haswell, Barrington, and Haswell: Philadelphia."

    So I guess "50 Shades of Grey" is mandatory reading?

    at least the wheels are OEM, instead of the usual knock-offs with Motorsport written on them
    Aus delivered car with red carpets - that doesn't happen very often.
