Bought a friend for the GT-R

After some serious questioning of my own sanity I have decided to spend the rest of my sons inheritance on something I have hankered after for quite some time but never had either the means and/or the guts to see through to a purchase.

I will be honest and have always thought that driving a Ferrari makes you look a bit of a tit regardless of how fantastic it is, but now Ive decided to not give a flying toss and go for it.

On Saturday morning I collect a F430 Scuderia, good timing as the GT-R is going into the body shop for a bit of paint after the Euro Road Trip so I won't have to choose for a few weeks LOL!

Anyway here she is: -

Fair play to you if you have that kind of cash laying about.
Nice car.

To be honest I didn't there's a degree of never never in there as well but what the hell, even if I can run it for the summer it'll be an experience

Thanks for the comments guys, I really am very excited and needed to share my good fortune with somebody LOL!!

I test drove it on Saturday and when on full chat my god is it noise to behold, it's all stripped out inside, no carpets just carbon fibre everywhere. The most expensive car I have ever purchased and ever likely to and it doesn't even have a radio, something tells me I won't need one

My next car. Probably not a Scud, but definitely a F430.

One of the main reasons I want one is to look like a tit
