    Hi everyone,

    I am still on the lookout for a good left hand drive 360 or 430. Coupes preferred, but I would not say no to a very nice convertible either. Car must have F1 transmission. I have been roaming the dealer sites and the private classifieds, but no luck so far.

    If someone has a lead on a nice car, please let me know.

    Regards,

    Try pistonheads.com or autotrader.co.uk or I am sure there will be a Belgian version.

    Which surely wouldn't be as attractive given the the weak pound...

    He he, you got it. ;)

    Yes, there are lots of 360s and 430s for sale over here in Belgium, all of them in LHD of course. However, when I compare UK prices to ours, the results are simply bewildering. I see many 360s listed in the £45-£50k bracket, which amounts to €50k-€56k. This is so much lower than the €70k-€85k prices I see for local cars. Euro prices are similar in France, Germany, etc...

    If only I could find a LHD car in the UK. Two years ago, when I went shopping for my 355, I managed to find at least 6 LHD 355s in the southern part of UK. Verdi had three back then, Foskers one and then there were a number of cars for sale by private sellers. Nowadays, it seems to be impossible to find a LHD 355/366/430 in the UK at all!

    Anyway, I'll keep looking, you never know...

    Regards,
    Rik Gruwez

    Maybe you should get in touch with a dealer in the UK...they might be able to find something for you.

    You may have come to the party a bit late to be honest.... pretty much all the LHD 'stock' in the UK were being snapped up well before Sterling approached parity with Euro a couple of months ago. You may be lucky and find one that has only recently come up for sale, but the game of using Euro to buy LHD in the UK has been well played.

    Yeah, that's what I had more or less figured when I could not find any LHD Ferrari at all. Too bad, so I'll just have to wait until one shows up. And then be quick...

    Or... I could buy a RHD car and use it for my vacations in the UK. :)
