Default Today i got the Ferrari out....

...A good old clean up and and new billet pedal set installed to match the later Ferrari's (the 348 come standard with rubber pedals)...this car sounds like an F1 car with the sports decat exhaust Check out the rear tyres 275/40/18's!

Now not many will appreciate this classic F-Car...but i do V8 3.4 320bhp over 175mph flat out and 0-60 is 5.2 secs nothing staggering but still quick enuff to make you grin ...and YES it is the real deal NOT Japanese

Mate's got a 355 F1, he moved up from a 348.

I like them in colours other than red although the number plate looks gash, I'd rather have the original plate than a chav irish one! Just my opinion tho.

For a good one in red 30 - 37k RHD ....Other colours take about a 2k drop......You need to buy the best example you can....yes you can get a RHD for as low as 23k ish but beware....a cam belt service is minimum 3k...a clutch 1.5k....ETC ETC...and that cheap one will still end up being a 30k plus one.

I had enuff to go for a red one but deceided Silver looked better and was cheaper

355 wheels look so much better on the 348s

Lovely car, but I still would have had sold all the toys, and just had a 355 and 1 other sensible car.

Lovely 348 though not a great Ferrari but still a very very nice car with ALOT of character

The spacers and the 355 wheels make it look alot better than a normal one. Good choice.

Hope you enjoyed the day

Engine shot


Porkie/Pon if i had wanted a 355 i would have bought one imo not worth the extra cash i drove one aswell yes they are better but not 15k better....360..a bit tight on the budget...as i WANTED a 600bhp Saff too BUT i am considering selling/breaking the lastest Saff (350bhp one) and selling the R1 to help fund a 2002 M3
