Thanks for the comment lads, it was always a childhood dream to own a 355, just never thought it would become a reality. Sadly I dont get to use it at all due to weather/time/work etc. When I first purchsed it I used it everyday until the winter set in. Had it serviced recently and had the front end painted to clear up any paint descrepancies, hence it ready to drive away after tax and mot.

Believe me im not rich, but I am a car fanatic. I just work hard and made a few fortunate decision's when I was a little younger, im 28 now.

Yes insurance was defo more due to my age and the fact its a lhd.

Also I have a friend who can arrange finance, and I shall be leaving the car in his possession as im out the country for two months as of April and wont be back until June.
Thanks

Looks really well mate, i do like them in yellow,
i have a ferrari 360 modena coming in 4 weeks time and im starting to have sleepless night with excitement. i did look at a yellow one but ended up choosing a tdf blue with blue leather.

Good luck with the sale, might be worth putting it on clud scuderia forum.



regards
mike

Well its more a case of personnel circumstance's and not just having money. I lived at home until I was 25 years old, Purchased the Ferrari at 26 and had my first cossy at 19.
I dont smoke, drink etc, my out goings where low my main expense being my Business at the time. which fortunatly was good to me.
Without sounding like im boasting, I have had allot of nice cars, plenty of shed's and anything in between, the point being, my main hobbie/interest has always been cars, and ive been fortunate to have had some nice motors, the age thing really is no big deal, I know people who are younger then me with some awesome motors, my brother being one of them.
The way I see it is if you want it bad enough you will get it if you put your mind to it.

Basically ive been working since 16 having completed my apprentiship at 19 and then going on to get some more qualifiation in the motor industry all of which played a major role in me opening my car sale/repair business at 21 with anormous help from my family. I then ventured into property leaving the cars behind and a few years on ( now ) have sold up, left it all behind and have decided to take a break for a few months.
hence the sale of some of my cars, as I just dont get to use them.

I did however purchase a lovley 3dr cossy the otherday and that shall be a keeps car and something to look forward to when I get back.

Would really like to travel more and inverst into property again. So there you have my brief history.

Mike 360 is a good choice mate
Trev, you've had some nice cars mate.

Good on you mate, I just cannot conceive how I could ever earn enough to have stuff like this though (without a lottery win). Yes, I've had some nice ones so I can't really complain. Anyway, having met you I know what a nice bloke you are so I certainly don't begrudge you it.

Beautiful car. Best colour for a F355 by a mile!

LOVELY looking thing

GOOD choice on the GT2 mate. You will love it...

Might be worth trying to sell your car abroad? where LHD is more desirable?

Its just you can get RHD ones for Ł8k less with same miles and age as yours from dealers now mate. So you are gonna struggle I think in this country....

Good luck with sale of a very beautiful car and please send me some pics of the GT2 when you get it
