Hi guys, Damn, it's a lazy day today. Impossible to concentrate on doing some work here. I would like to have a job for Ferrari somehow, somewhere!! Those Mercedes-Benz cars are starting to work on my nerves..... BTW, went looking last week at a very, very, very nice 308 GTB QUATTROVALVOLE. 1984 - 69.000KM - Black on Tan What a car !! What a car !! I think I gonna jump in my car and take a look again.... It's only 15 minutes from where I work. What should I do??? I am in love.........(again) Joren REMANS
Hee Joren... cool a 308!!! sounds great...go drive there and take some pics (and post them here ofcourse!! )
It's such a wonderfull machine, it's unbelievable!!!! Jeez, I really have the wrong job believe me. Do you guys wanna know what other cars I saw at the place where the black 308 is ???? Joren REMANS
Sounds very good Joren, how much is he asking for, how many pre-owners. accident free??? Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Third owner Sold new at Garage Francorchamps 05/1984 accident-free completely original service-history known "impeccable" I already gave it a name : "The Black Lobster" What do you think about that????? Man, I tell you, that car was smiling at me...... Jeez, really great......I was even a little bit embarrashed........ Joren REMANS
well...tell us...what other cars???? btw the specs of the car sound great...where are you waiting for? Go buy it!!!! go Joren go Joren go Joren
...still waiting for the "asking" price?! Got some pics or a www. to have a closer look on it? Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
It's a place in Brussels specialized in servicing Ferrari : With standing there : several 308's several Dino's Wolfarossa / 512 TR / F 512 M 365 GTB/4 Daytona 250 GT Cabriolet (just came in from California) 275 GTB Competizione 275 GTB/4 NART spider !!!! 330 GTS (2x) F40 (2x) 512 BB (very nice one !!) 412
that sounds fantastic!! Would love to pay it a visit!... in Brussel?? isn't that Garage Francorchamps?
We didn't discuss the price yet, the car is there in consignation. Normally they don't sell cars but the owner is a good customer/relationship from the man who has the workshop. Asking price is €29k Joren REMANS
No, it's not Garage Francorchamps. They don't do any kind of advertising, it's a well known place in "the world of Ferraristi". Actually, I should look out for a dig cam so I can share some pics with you guys. Only problem is that I am not a very big fan of computer things..... JR
The owner of the shop is an Italian who immigrated to Belgium in the fifties. Till 1981 he worked for the "Ecurie Francorchamps" as a mechanic for Jacques Swaters. He is seen on several pictures taken at Le Mans 24 hrs / Sebring / Daytona / Francorchamps etc... He is one of the guys from "the old school" Unbelievable gentleman, you feel the passion in this guy... You don't find them like this anymore!! Joren REMANS
When I hear all this I think that the 308 is a 'hard' car...not a crashed one or another freaky car! I sounds like you can 'trust' them/ him, and you, as a carsalesman, can lower the price easy, can't you?
Yes, it's a car that you can trust with your "eyes wide shut". I have seen several F-cars till now; you wouldn't believe how many ****ty cars there are on the market today... I also went to Automusa in Bergeijk 2 weeks ago. The have a quite nice 308 GTS QV but with USA specs. I asked for the VIN number and today I still didn't get it... Does that need an explanation???
Joren, because I'm very curious I try to search for your famous garage...and ofcourse your black lobster...but no luck... but I did find this: 1980 - Ferrari - 308 gtbi Chassis : "zffaa01a4a0032669" Rood / Zwart 28000 Km 22900 TTC België Contact : ab auto nv (Dealer) Adres : aarschotbaan 14-16 Postcode : 2580 Tel : 32/0032/15.22.43.77 Fax : 32/0032/15.22.52.50 Website : http://www.abauto.be have you already seen it?? Sounds not that bad does it? (a red lobster?)
Yes, I know this one. Keep your hands of I would say. It's a USA model but doesn't look sharp enough IMHO. It's for sure already 1 1/2 year on the market. They don't manage to sell it. Very strange. You will not find anything on the web about the workshop I was talking about. I tell you, it's a closed world. Joren REMANS
well then...take some pictures, give some info and I'll be the first to put it on the net ... or....you can ask them if they would like a very nice website for not much money...I can deliver!! here some of my (designed) sites: ForzaRossa.nl European Switzerland Rally DinoGT4register
Yeah I know. Great job you do with the websites. Also nice to check out : www.jac-cars.be www.rsmotorsports.be www.mecanicimport.com Enjoy !! I gonna buy some cigarettes now.. Joren REMANS
Joren & Waldo, there is a biiiig difference between a 1981 and 1984 F 308!!!! 2 Valves / 4 valves, BHP....and many. many more including the price. Looks stunning, awesome, beautiful.....ISN`T ALL!!!! The engine & gear boy is THE point! Price: uro: 29K LOL, sorry dreaming off or something like this - 3 owners -MIUNS points! - Balck- always cheaper than red -GTB and NOT GTS...always cheaper -67.000km is o.k. but realy driven! a good price for the "Lobster" would be around : 22K Just my 0,02 Cents Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
