Hi Everyone:

I am new to this site, and from all the threads and posts that I have been reading I am glad that I stumbled onto this site. I am presently looking into purchasing a 308 GTS. I am not too sure which year or type, but I am doing research on what the costs are, maintenace etc... I am from Alberta, Canada and I was hoping to find someone in this area who might be able to point me in the right direction for a qualified mechanic. I have found a few 308's for sale in the area and I was hoping I could get some pointers for what to look for even though I was intending to get a pre-purchase report for what ever car I was going to buy. Thanks

Hi Everyone:

Well my maybe soon title should now read now achieved. I now own a Ferrari. I bought a 1983 308 GTS QV. I am just awaiting for it to be delivered home. How do I add owner below my tag?

Thanks

Congratulations Mayby Soon!
Can't remember how to add the owner bit (and you should add 'Elite Member' too

), but I'm sure someone will be along shortly to provide the info.

Is it easy to change user names without having to re-register?
