    The only thing, which has causes me a problem is a short water hose. It blew at a most bad time. Gee, 60,000 miles and no real problems? Am I ready driving a Ferrari? Maybe the spirit of Enzo is in the finest car of the twentieth century. My seat time is just fine, thank you. I hope you get to spend the time behind a Ferrari as I have. The more the time, the more one understands why the Maranello is the car.

    Bonzi!

    Hi, great achievement, nice to see the cars driven rather than just sitting. Out of interest, what year is your 550? I had some gearbox issues on my 360, and two of my friends have had similar problems on 97 and 98 550's. Just interested as to whether your car is early or late. Thanks.

    Now Bart is using his Ferrari the way it was intended to, and that is DRIVING it. Ferrari's belong on the road not in the garage.

    Rock on Bart! A couple more years and you'll bust the 100k mark.
