Well had a fantastic day today detailing I think the only FF Ferrari in the UK ... what a machine ... very definitley a love it or hate it car but as a daily driver (that just sounds crazy having a Ferrari as a daily driver doesn't it) as that it what it is I think it is awesome in everyway ... one of the things I heard about this car is once 100MPH is acheived it disengages the possibility of 4 wheel drive and reverts to rear wheel drive only .... it is a weapon and I love it, lots of people really don't like it at all ... anyway here is the gallery for you to have a look at, sorry about the quality of the photos my phone is not that good.

I am knackered 7 hours solid work ... but what a car, stunning when I had finished it really is.

 

I like it. Reminds me of a Jenson Interceptor.

 

I love 'em!

On my Italian road trip earlier in the year, as Mrs P and I were on the A1 approaching Modena two FFs with factory shrink-wrap on the front pulled along side. We got a wave and then they dropped a couple of gears and peeled-off into Modena.

One was in dark grey and the other was in pearl white - the latter looked particularly good.

 

Yes I thought you might, you liked the Scaglietti if I recall, and of course you know this is basically the replacement for that car ... it has kept the scalloped front typical of the Scaglietti, from the front the car is simply stunning from any angle, it's from the back of the door to the rear where people seem to dislike it ... I would love to have seen the pearl white, pearl white looks amazing I remember being up close with a pearl white 8C Competzione it was stunning.

 

Reminds me of a BMW, Z5? maybe, not for me though.

 

My wife doesn't like it so we won't be getting one.

Saw one up close in the Ferrari museum the other day and have to admit it looked imposing and if you already have other Ferraris then it would have uses. It wouldn't / shouldn't be your first one though.

On a side note, when we parked outside the entrance to Fiorano a yellow 458 with two exhausts* came past. It had a couple of very minor body mods and seemed to sit lower than a standard 458. Scuderia perhaps?



*a standard 458 has 3

 

Wow, love that.

Looking forward to you doing mine

 

Have you bought it yet Dave?

 

I can't remember if I liked it when it first appeared, but I do now.

I saw a Panamera yesterday, they used to make me violently sick but I'm starting to like them

 

having not seen on in the flesh i cant judge to much but from the pictures it look bloody hideous, but like ge2 i hated panamera's in pics and in the flesh they look nice.

will have to wait to pop to the local dealer for a test drive before i judge it properly LOL
