Dear Dark Lord,
do yourself a favour and fill out your profile properly and post pics of your car if you want to be taken seriously here.
If you don't or can't , it would appear you are, in fact, nothing but a time wasting teenager yourself.
I've met a lot of people who post here , including a teenager and his dad, and we're all bone fide Ferrari owners/ enthusiasts.

 

Because some of us realise its not a good idea to have your name, location, e-mail, IP held in the DB of sites on the web.

I'm sure this is a reputable forum, but that can soon change with change of ownership. Or worse still if the server is hacked.

 

We aren't interested in details of your bank account etc...however, it would be nice if some personal info was forthcoming.....
As it is , i know you are very well known on Porsche owners forums so why won't you reveal the same info here?

 

damn-didnt realise you guys won't take me seriously with no pic's of my car on here yet! Will get snapping and posting asap!

 

Our man with the 512M - Mr Steve Fi***i***ns should show new users some ******* courtesy instead of being such a relentless know it all.

I think I've made my point.

P.S I have laid claim to the ownership of NO car. Assume I own NOTHING..

 

this site is for car enthusiasts and it was reputable till people like you and murchi boy start posting with fake id so tonyh i think they are hackers so kick them off and if they dont want kicking off post some sensible form of id ect and accept my apoliges or go and play some where else

 

Gary,
the difference is , you haven't come onto this forum and given it large about owning a Murci, whilst gashing off other Fchatters....

 

Ade - if you shop around for Finance you can find the right deal for your Lamborghini you want so badly. A friend of mine with a contact at Lombard (the friend is a residential property player in London which goes to explain a LOT) managed to negotiate 0.75% over base for the loan on his 575M!!!!
I believe the figure he told me he was paying were like (don't actually know whether they add up...)
£13,000 deposit, £1800 a month with a whacking great balloon (~£85k) at the end of the finance term. His fully specced 575M F1 was bought NEW from Stratstones for only £135K (what a discount over list!)

 

Ade....may be following you down the same road of indecisiveness (not a murci fan though).......after six weeks off work (following a nasty dislocation of the shoulder) the hospital told me yesterday "I shall be damaged for life".....work are 100% liable and not in a position to challenge my claim......I'm gutted......Tony, what colours are the CS available in ???
cheers, delirious dave

 

Dave,
blu TdF, Rosso Scuderia with stripes, Rosso Corsa, Nero Daytona, Giallo Modena and Grigio Alloy........any others ?

 

Iv'e just come !

 

"Murcielago_Boy" Dude you are tooooo funny! get back to some real work, dirty scallywag.

Ade, no wrong guy! In an altogether less extravagant business, although it does pay the bills. lol. Definitely a good idea to hook up with some more Londoners, I'm between North and West End, often at Knightsbridge, Kensington or Selfridges (handbags,shoes all the things women like,mines cost me more than the Ferrari this year.) Someone set a date, we could cruise Knightsbridge, Berkeley Sq et al like a bunch of saddos. lol, no seriously, there are still some interesting roads for a blat... Docklands???

Problems I've had I'll fill you in later, but moreso its to do with the ridiculous system here in the UK.

Simon, I've found the Murci clutch to be easy... to the point of distraction...its a little too easy, but I wouldnt put it down as a major issue.

Like our friend MurciBoy (you pratt come up with something better than that), I think a left hand drive one has the benefit that the clutch foot has a decent enough resting place, something thats amiss in the RHD cars. I found that a major discomfort, but not enough as to put me off one. But in the end, although its enviably fast (quicker than my 360 by some margin) it still feels somewhat heavy, although thats not to say it isnt capable or involved.

My problem with driving it isnt with *it* per se, its more so London and its swathing roads, not forgetting its near idiot like passenger car driver population, and the plethora of other ****heads on the road, including but not limited to taxi drivers, bus drivers, lorry drivers etc etc etc. As a general rule, I've found motorcyclists the most polite. Says a lot doesnt it?

A near 2 tonne, carbon fibre bodied 7ft wide Supercar, with a delicate clutch driving down width restricted, tiny cobbled streets, trying to avoid the above mentioned fool list. It just seems a little daunting.

It would be true to accuse me of twisted view. Its simply because of my recent experiences, but that is alas all we all have to go on. First hand information-the best, although sometimes you'd wish you'd never had. lol.

Regards

 

ps Ade, definitely keep the 355 spider. You'll have lots fun in that this summer. Have you had a tubi fitted yet and decatted the thing?

If so, enjoy, its gonna be a good summer,

if not, do it now, man!! You'll love it!

 

finance details from murciboy seem bit too good?
Got mine from lombard too which was a "deal" via my business bank manager.
borrowed £123,000 @ £1500 a month with reasonable balloon.£135K for fully specced seems unreal.I got £20K off list with a haggle that went on for weeks! Cancelled order then maybe but if its your choice of spec i'd be amazed and not a little sad that i've wasted a few sheckles!!...........

 

The numbers could be "out" so take my figures with a pinch of salt Gary - my info is second hand....
And I'm assuming that your do not have such a large balloon against your car.
Anyhow, this car WAS a cancelled order - apparently Stratstone called up my mate and simply said they had a 575M F1 w/Fiorano sitting on the forecourt ready to go for around ~£135K. He had no choice in colour, spec or anything. Got on the phone and did the deal...

 

'tis a difficult decision...i love (and have loved for the past two and a half decades) the carbed 308.
besides, if the north west boys can't keep up with a twenty five year old, three litre, V8, carrying an eighteen stone fat slob, then there's not much point in changing.
"Win by the smallest possible margin"
regards, david (wi' tin hat on)
ps....just thought i'd continue with the "wind stevef up" theme.

 

1) How does one verify your id is not fake?
2) How does the lack of info in my public profile prevent me from being a car enthusiast?
3) Point to a post I have made which brings this site in to disrepute?

So signing up to a forum with an alias makes me a hacker? LMAO.

If you can't accept people using aliases, I suggest you pack up your pc and play elsewhere, because the web is obviously not the place for you.

 

Must be another 5to1. I've only just joined the 911uk forum recently.

I dont like to give my details for many reasons. But one example is illustrated here. When people such as Steve F take a disliking to you, they can follow you around the forums. As I've observed with other people.

In this case its much easier to change your alias and not have to worry about your real name/location etc floating around from previous posts.

And if I was a hacker as Steve F suggests, or had any mallicious intentions, I would use a proxy.

Theres a Black 2003 Murci Listed here for 117k GBP. It says RHD, but the pictures suggest its LHD so it may be mislabeled. Otherwise its a cheap car.

 

Yea, on reflection driving a Murci in London all the time does seem a bit daunting. I think i'm gonna pick mine up from the service centre at North Acton which is closer to the M1 so I don't have to negotiate central London. Up here its all country roads and the odd stray cow. However the country lane from my house to the main road is very narrow(have trouble with the 355 now),so with a Murci it should be fun.
