    HR Owen...sat in the Scuderia today, sweet, I want one.
    Took some pics, of course, but on my Leica so I need a card reader for the laptop.
    Took in a great rugby match today in Twickham ( think tailgate party with Bentley's)

    Cheers

    Yup, the prices are falling over here, 599's and 612's are going no bid according to a collector friend of mine. Ironically, saw a nice grigio scud with curbed rims today, so they idiots are still spending...haha.

    Thanks for all your help. James, I only worked breifly with Mike Soltani and I did one or two importing jobs with Tommy. But, next time I'm back in the city I'll see if I can get in contact with them for help...and tell Shaheen he's queer. :)

    I am planning on opening up a dealership one day. But even if it never works out, writing this business plan will be good experience for me. Thanks for the encouragement (*wink*) :)

    But in all seriousness, I appreciate the info guys. Thanks.

    Regards,

    Andrew

    The reason i say not to open a dealership is because no matter how good your product is or how much better it would be for someone to buy from you people will always be idiots and buy from the same guys they've been buying from for 30 years even though the service sucks and the prices are out of control but if you do i wish the best of luck! and seriously if you have any questions PM me and i'll do my best to answer them for you.

    Sweet! Anybody knows if they still have MC12 and F40? I'd love to them again.

    The F40 and 360 CS belong to the same owner. (Friend of mine). They are kept at FOO for storage.

    I don't know if the new FOO dealership is open but I do know that the reported move of Al Palladini in the same Auto Mall (he was going to buy the Volvo dealership location) has been called off. The reported deal of his current location (about $26 Million) just fell through. Life sucks when there is no longer any liquidity doesn't it!

    I will keep your advice in mind for the future...who knows one day when I'm a bit more experienced in the business I may be thanking you for telling me that.

    P.S. have you been to see mike's new showroom near FoO?

    575man, if you have any specific questions you can send me a pm as well. Keep in mind I know more about the used car side, I have little experience in new cars.

    I just drove by the new FOO location. Doesn't look anywhere near completion. The interiors are still bare, so it looks like a few weeks of interior finishing to be done.

    One think I noticed is that the new FOO only has 2 service bays? What's up with that? They have so much land, but its mostly a parking lot.
