I just went along with the whole "rep" thing because I was bored and I knew they'd been a bit of banter going round about reps recently.

Like I say to people when I'm asked if it's a real one:

"No mate, It's a fake.........just like my tan"

Steve, thanks for the link - that is impressive, fair bit of wheelspin
off the line too.............those burnouts


OK, I will leave my 355 pics up for an hour or two only........got enough peeps hate me as it is

Would NEVER be without a Cossie BTW If I had to sell either,
then the 355 would be got rid of long before I thought about selling
the Cosworth....thats no bullshit

K3V HA, OK, will keep the pics up, glad that people appreciate the Ferrari

RichardPON, They are not "that" fast Richard (more or less good stage 3 Cossie pace/performance), but a real joy to drive, very tactile - alive in your hands, loads of steering feel & piose/easy to pick an exact line through bends, and just sooo rewarding on the right type of road, even if untimataly not as fast as it looks lol.

Thanks to all for the kind comments

The first owner went for the total spec So it has the light weight Kevlar sports seats (leather trimmed), F1 paddle-shift, challange rear grille.............

and the factory fitted "Sports Exhaust".........Was gonna to a trackday at Castle Combe (100 dB limit) ....No trackday for me: 112 dB at 4K when tested in the paddock

Stunning car, I'd always go for a Red Ferrari but I think it looks sensational in Yellow Especially with challenge rear panel... really works well with the yellow.

Awesome
