Thanks for all the info/replies/opinions. On a side note I did search and read the dreaded sodium-valve threads. Those are almost as good as...
Yeah, the market is certainly tilted towards buyers right now but good 308 QVs cant be bought for $20K or even $22K unless Im missing something?...
No, no.... I like 308's and Mondials too. The power output is of little concern. I just wanted to make sure the 2V car wasnt going to be a night...
Yeah, I am going to look over their service records and determine when/if the valves were done recently. If they have NOT been done that I too...
Thanks gents. Speed is NOT a major concern, I was just preparing myself a bit for what to expect. Me and a friend will be seeing the car and...
I found an '81 GTSi like 45 minutes away from me that Im going to go and see Tuesday morning. A car this close is a rarity for me in Rochester so...
I dont think Ill even bother. No need for me toi drive 6 hours just to see a car I probably dont want to buy. If it had JUST the seats Id be...
Great points, Joe. Yeah, I pretty much ruled it out but like to get some feedback from "da boys" here too. Still new at this and the more info,...

Cliff - In several years we must dig up this post. You will probably be right. :D
Mondials can be bought for less than other models so it makes sense that they also sell for less. I dont think they'll ever be gold mines but in...
Really.... ;)
Thanks for the reply. Yeah... its a little dodgy. If it had the right seats and regular stereo Id be much more interested.
Item #170516530068 Its an '84 Euro coupe. Some service history but not all. Timing belt done about 4 years ago with about 3K miles on it. A...
I agree. The 308 is still the best looking Ferrari road car ever and quite possibly the best looking two-seat sports car ever. The Lotus Esprit...
Leaky cam seals are very common for overhead cam engines. Out of the 5 cars Ive looked at or will look at purchasing, 4 of them have leaky cam...
