    Hello everybody, let me introduce myself, my name is Jose Ignacio and I´m writing from Spain. I´ve registered long time ago but I stayed anonymous until the searching of my dream car begins.
    I´m looking for a 355F1 GTS but there are not many of them available in the Spanish market, only two cars were offered right now.
    Today I´ve seen one of them, and now I have a lot of doubts about how the car works and thats why I request your help.

    Please check the attached images, their were captured at iddle speed after 10min running at this condition. The coolant temperature gauge reads 80ºC (176ºF)

    * Could you tell me if the oil pressure 1.5bar (21.76lb/in2) is correct at 800rpms?

    * The gearbox display doesn´t shows correctly the gears, only the half of the number is displayed. It could be repaired or a new display will be necessary?

    * The velocity gauge shows 20km/hr (12.43mph)when the car is stop ¿it´s normal?

    * The VIN plate looks different compare to every one that I´ve seen before and it has located at the passenger side. ¿it´s an original plate?

    Thanks in advance your answers.
    Regards.

    The correct idle speed is 1050 RPMs.

    At 1050 my car idles with 35 PSI--however, 1.5 bar is not out of spec. The question, here, is why the idle is so low (RPM wise), the ECU should figure this out and bring it up via the idle speed bypass adjusters.

    Yes, the speedo does not go down to zero.

    From what I can see of the vin plate, it look original.
