    As some of you might already know, the legendary tennis player Björn Borg owned a Ferrari 308 GTS QV in the 80s. This car is now for sale! As a Swede and big tennis fan since young, it would be a dream to have this car!
    I saw Björn Borg in my tennis club in Stockholm a year ago and asked him about the 308 he used to have. Afterwards i realized a was wearing a head sweat band from his brand saying "Björn Borg" all over my forehead. I wonder if he noticed...

    I thought I had seen them on another, but checked and it's a 328. The 328 on the cover of "Original Ferrari V8" has them.

    I remember reading a discussion here that a country in Europe required to have those washers but just couldn’t remember what thread that was.

    Correct! All cars sold new in Sweden have them, including my car. Maybe due to the winter season when the lights get dirty, but who drives the 308 in winter?
    Really? II have the Ferrari V8 book but never noticed that detail on the 328.

    Have the washer nozzles on my 59003 also, low beam washers were mandatory in Sweden from somewhere around 1972-3.
    They first came on SAAB 99 in late 60:s.
    Dealer mounted stuff on import cars, mostly really crap but they had to work on the yearly safety inspection.

    Another thing I will never understand. I think nothing worse than celebrity pre-owners. I want to say, I cannot imagine other folks caring less for their cars.

    Best from Germany
