    You mean like almost every other OHOS Ferrari?

    I’ll take an Enzo over a Daytona any day, thanks.

    Me too. But if you’re going to call it overrated and ugly there are plenty of other overpriced and overrated Ferraris in that category.

    Of the big five (288GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, Laf) I’d now take it first or second.
    And that’s something I never thought I’d say not long ago.

    I think the 288 is really beautiful and would be my easy pick of those five, not sure what their value is though?
    F40 second, the F50 never really did it for me!!

    Only if the engine is in the correct location.
    So, Enzo, F50, and LaF are ok.

    Only time I want a V12 in front of me is if it’s a Merlin.

    I was. Simon convinced me to drive to Cairns instead. :D

    There’s also stuff going on here re the -24 I don’t want to be too far away if I need to come back to Adelaide at short notice.

    Lol.

    No. I joined the dark side and bought a Golf. :eek:

    Don’t think the dogs would fit in the 355 either.

    Frankly I’d probably be happy of I could drive it to Cairns in 3rd gear...

    Would you believe I’m still scouring the known universe for a $150 solenoid.

    A mate just sold his Golf R. It was a great car.
    However, the one I bought is about as far away from a Golf R as it’s possible to get:
    A poverty spec wagon.
    But it’ll do the job reliably and economically.

    It would seem not. I sent him all the info but haven’t heard anything.
    In the meantime I dropped the faulty solenoid to a business in Gawler who think they might be able to fix it.
    If that’s the case that may be an acceptable solution but so far no definite result.

    Thanks mate. I appreciate it. :)

    I’ve been pretty snowed under so haven’t chased it as much as I might, but now I’m on leave I want to get it sorted before I go back to work.
