    Bizarre thing at Noosa Classic last weekend - father and son decked out from head to toe in Ferrari merchandise (all shop, not club stuff), at the end of the day get into a Morgan and drive off!

    Definitely last year..... I wasn't on the scene prior to buying my car.

    Yes, I did have a look. The paint is pretty crappy close up. Here are some of the pics I took with my 2.0 meg phone...

    PS: The ****ter on the central coast seems to have been sold.

    Pedal set up doesn't look to comfortable, can any owners comment on that?

    Pretty normal. My 328 is much the same. When you first drive them you think the brake is the clutch. Very much offset to the left. A mate of mine is just buying a 993 Porsche and commented about the same thing............

    Cheers,

    Bob.

    Ring the owner Rudolph on (02) 9519 4332 and ask him.
    He is the owner of Piccolo Scuderia in Marrickville.

    er, Rudolph is not the owner of the GTO.

    If its not at the state concours, I think you'll see it at the national concours, at the Overseas Passenger terminal at Circular Quay on 26 Oct.

    OK suppose its a matter of getting used to it.

    I drove an E36 M3 today, i think you have one too. I found the clutch pedal was too close to the foot rest so when i pushed it down i'd hit the foot rest thinking i put the pedal down, making it difficult to select gear, crunchy and strange. Maybe i have wide feet or i can't drive

    Yep, that was the first thing that I noticed when I test drove mine. Like anything, you do get use to it and after about 500 kms it didn't bother me at all.
    The seating position itself is a bit awkward but once you find a comfortable layout it too is fine.

    Are you interested in buying one or just having a drive?
    Cheers,

    Bob.

    My sincerest apology, did Rudolph own it at last years concourse? If not then I must be going totally mad as I vaguely recall chatting to him about it.
    Sorry if I've given a bum steer, it certainly wasn't my intension.
    Regards,

    Bob.
