[Gibonz]

Unreal sur, fair play!

 

[Ghisallo]

Fantastic, beautiful car.

Now that is how you write a members car thread! Really enjoyable read and great story behind the purchase. Loved reading that Barry, the car looks class. It must feel good to have knocked your pan in all these years to now own your dream car from when you were young.

Sublime work from @big_pete as always too.

 

[Father Stack]

I almost welled up reading that. What a write up, and congrats on not giving up and chasing your dream! What a car.

 

[Dave..]

Congrats Barry for the new baby and for the car of your dreams. I know how dangerous Sat diving/diving can be so well done.

Beautiful story and car Barry.
Not too many of us in the hunt for a family car, will ever ditch the purchase of a focus RS for a Ferrari F355 lol

 

[Lappintyre]

Absolutely epic write up @BarryPort, must have taken you an age with only one good hand If all else fails you could take up journalism lol!

Had seen the pics on PMG's insta and wondered who owned it.

Fair play to your commitment on the spec, just stunning in every way, I hope to hear it in person some day!

Always remember the race with one in 'the Rock' with Nicholas Cage.​

Just went back and read your post, superbly written and it actually hurt looking at the pictures and knowing I don't own it . What a beautiful car!

 

[nobby]

Very nice and health to drive and enjoy.

Best advice i can give you in owning an older supercar like that is to drive it and enjoy it as much as you can

 

[Chris100]

Awesome, undoubtedly my favourite Ferrari ever and quite possibly the best looking car ever built.

 

[PMC555]

Awesome, a mate of mine in England has a LHD red one and I havn't got over to drive it yet.
One of the best looking Ferraris ever,with a revvy flat plane crank V8 and an open gate manual. What's not to like.

 

[Ben]

Wow! Best car on RMS, hands down.

 

[Rocko]

I opened every email at arm’s length through a single squinted eye expecting the upbeat Charlotte to announce the car was a ringer and there was Japanese knotweed growing in the trunk.

This is properly Clarkson-esque hilarious.

Loved your write up, I love to read about stories and timelines like this. Beautiful car especially the paint and seats combo, your perserverance paid off getting the right one. Health to enjoy!

Wow! Best car on RMS, hands down.

There is a couple of close seconds but yeah the crown belongs on this all day long. Unless someone rocks up with an f40

 

[Gambit]

Having now viewed the pics on the pc rather than the phone just highlights what a perfect car it is. the interior and its layout of centre console, dash binnacle etc is just perfect

the story behind it of basically chasing it for years/missing out and then finally getting it just makes it all the better.

hats off to you!

 

[gav525]

Unreal mate and great write up!

Health to drive, well deserved

Yep totally agree!

 

[BarryPort]

Some bold statements there guys but the love for these Pininfarina penned ladies is real.

 

[WSK]

Fair play, what a motor & story!! Can just imagine it on full song!!

 

[Chris Mac]

Outstanding @BarryPort , I had a nosey at it when Pete had finished it, it is stunning in the flesh. Great investment too

 

[Ciaran]

Fantastic write up, what a car!

Health to enjoy.
