Got to sell the F-Car........real sad about this but it seems things go wrong in bundles...... I have a beautiful 328 GTS ....had lots of great drives with this car and my son thinks its real cool when i pick him up from school in the F-car....but since MR Blair and Mr Brown had finished with this country my business didnt survive... nor has my marriage.....but i am not bothered about my marriage....well i am...... but there are loads of women around but only one F-Car my F-Car...........how many of you guys are cringing right now ? had to get a job after 25 years of employing myself...that really hurt and now i have to do as i am told by a much younger manager and jump through so many hoops.....its degrading and the pay is almost non existant......so mant times i wanted to say shove it up your ar5e but have kids to feed.....so many times i wanted to turn up for work in the F-Car but that would have driven a wedge between me and the rest....so i had to be content with just flying the plane over the office without anyone there knowing.... this is the lifestyle one comes to appreciate when you own a company....but the hardship when it all goes wrong.......so many businesses went down in this recession ...florists ...builders......car dealers etc.......and now ? well ............... i have an idea for a new company......a manufacturing company.....thats why i need to sell the F-Car..... I have a real need to bounce back........ and i bet there are many like me ! all the best.
Wish you all the best, been there and got the T Shirt. Best bit of advice i was given was from a Ferrari friend "use your contacts". I did and have slowly got myself back on my feet. Good Luck
Winters come along so we can use the time to grow better, stronger, smarter. Never underestimate the invisible power of winters. Good luck.
Really sorry to hear about your situation. You sound like the sort of person who will be ok. You have made the first step,you have a plan! Best of luck for 2012. Regards, Roy
Good luck, I hope the next step goes well. Perhaps write a buy-back clause into the bill of sale for your Ferrari? Then you might have the option of getting the same car again when you bounce back. All the best, Andrew.
