Is a dirty Ferrari ok?

I did wash it directly after this pic was taken! Believe it or not, this was only a 40 mile drive on tarred roads. Bloody farmers putting mud on the road....

Thankfully you gave that baby a wash! Nothing wrong with driving our cars, but keeping them looking good is part of the fun too isn't it?

I mean, what must the minions think of those of us with dirty Ferrari's........................................................................................................................................................

 

Glad I don't live anywhere in your area.

My car gets extremely dusty out here. That's about it, I only wash it every few months because once I start driving the dust blows straight off.

 

I love that pic, Brock

 

Looks like a a serious machine, not a toy!

I found my 360 in the rear parking lot of a performance car dealer, all wet and dirty from the rain. It had been left out for a while and looked pretty miserable compared to the rest of the dealers nice clean cars in the showroom.

It was one of the reason I bought it, I passed by it twice and never noticed it. It was only when I was talking to the sales man inside over the ferraris in the showroom and he mentioned he had another one outside that was in my price range that I saw it. It does help that it is in silver as well. I liked the fact it did not stand out too much and looked at home in all weather.

I was amazed it started with no issues as it had obviously been left out in the cold for several days, after all I have heard that ferraris don't work in the wet.

At first I kept it as a garage queen, but quickly realised there was no point keeping her locked up, I enjoy driving her too much, my car is dirty right now, 2 trips this week and meant it is covered in bug splats at the front and mud over the rear quarters. She has a fair few staone chips on the front as well. In fact I have not washed her for 2 months now.

But she is too much fun to drive to ignore, I love reving her up and hearing her roar, hell, I would drive her everywhere if I could.
