Ed Neilson. F355 Spider As of tomorrow....Depending on the snow! I can't believe the day arrives and it starts Snowing back home.... Somebody somewhere is snowing on my Parade...And it hurts me inside!!! Ed
Nope...Le Mans with blue roof and the really dark blue leather! Was thinking about adding a bit more blue somehow....!!!! Thoughts!!!!????
Don't know the colour , but i'll try and "google" it... i personally really like Ferrari's in blue and was a whisker away from buying TDF /Tan Spider. Settled for predictable Rosso Crsa /Crema .... Tony
Ed, in same boat re little legs and the Spider's driving position is fine. I think the general Italian motoring rule of short legs,long arms favours us too! One extra i would recommend at earliest opportunity is to put a sport exhaust on.Tubi seems to be the choice of most UK F-chatters . Tony

Tony[/QUOTE] Tony The car had a quiet exhaust on it as the previous owner didn't like the noise, but the dealers dealer put a Stainless Sports exhaust on as part of the deal. They wanted the quiet one for Goodwood trackdays I think! Ed
That's the only downside to Tubi....at Goodwood recently, my car registered 112 d/b.... track limit that day was 104 ! Tony
Ed, what's forecast like for t'row in Yorkshire? I know that feeling well of wanting something sooo bad but having to wait..... Tony
I know your'e gagging to drive it home but it might be safer for dealer to deliver on a flatbed... Tony
Ed, don't know them.My car has been serviced in main dealer network up to now, but nxt year i need belts done and will prob. go with Verdi. Tony
Ed, I'd be doing exactly the same...take it easy and enjoy the journey home. If you are about in the a'noon, give me a call and i'll come and see you off. Tony
Go for it. Just don't go above 1500 rpm in the wet ......... only kidding the 355 is fine in the rain. Like all rear wheel drive cars I find the car is more controllable in the wet. Looking forward to seeing some pics. Also good to see another F car heading North (bought mine in London too). Rick
Well, the decision has been made. At 2pm ish, I will have picked up the Spider and will be setting off for Yorkshire! All fingers crossed for me please!!!! Apparently the weather is going to sort itself out and be a little warmer so it should be easy. Just need to pay the final bills and she is all mine! I am fairly certain I will not be sleeping tonight!!!!! I will report on any further nightmares as they appear! Ed
John Here. Been hanging around for 18 months. Money in bank for a 348TS in the New Year. Just need to find the right one !!
