But for a 1998 car thats ony c£1k per year... think my Masers would not fare much better over the same number of years.Isn't £25k maintenance in 25k miles an indication of something (plus the small matter of £150k depreciation.....)
Should have used an indie.Isn't £25k maintenance in 25k miles an indication of something (plus the small matter of £150k depreciation.....)
Tell me about it a big service on my 360 just before I sold it was done by Carrs in Exeter cost me nearly £6K back in 2014 to keep the history all Ferrari.Should have used an indie.
My QP has cost more or less that for 30K....but has only lost ~10K in depreciation!Isn't £25k maintenance in 25k miles an indication of something (plus the small matter of £150k depreciation.....)
The 456 straddles the old school Ferrari era with the ‘new’. Its performance and looks are of the same epoch as the F355 and 550, but it doesn’t quite have the same useability of those two - the tappets need to be adjusted, for example, and some parts are made from unobtanium.
The biggest problem is that it looks rather too much like the 406 Coupe.
This will sound sacrilegious but from certain angles the Peugeot looks better...

Keep looking at those over here in France as they have an appeal to me.Pininfarina designed ( Bavarone) - timeless aesthetic works for me....

Yeah, though I believe the 406 Coupe was supposed to have been the Fiat Coupe, but Bangle's design got the nod?The 406 coupe was a pinifarina design. Apparently rejected by Ferrari so Peugeot bought it from Pininfarina. No shame with inherited genetics. Alos love the look of Peugeot 405 but already have a big saloon. Do not love those Peugeot interiors so much either.
well I wanted both but only bought Fiat Coop. Flirted with the 406 but something missing. If it had busso V6 ?Yeah, though I believe the 406 Coupe was supposed to have been the Fiat Coupe, but Bangle's design got the nod?
