F40 1st Spring Drive & Pictures

Boxer · 03-23-2008, 06:32 AM

Per the post on the F50, after one very enjoyable drive, I decided to switch cars and repeat the same course.

Also as the F40 had been sitting for a couple of weeks, It defintely needed some road time to keep everything in good running order.

It's good to get them out there and exercise them. The last time my car was out was January 12th.

The F40 looks superb, those pictures just reminded me why it is my favorite car.

Pete04222 · 03-23-2008, 08:04 AM

Archie, when was the last time your car was out?

Vulcan F-40 · 03-23-2008, 09:18 AM

Dear Comrade Boxer,

Superb images of a car that's in perfect condition. However, I noted the over-mats; is this something that you fitted, please, as I should very much like to obtain a set?

With kind regards,

Vulcan

Sir Vulcan,

The over-mats came with the car but I will see if I can find out where they were sourced.

Cheers,

Boxer

It will now be a while before the F40 sees the road again. I dropped it off for the cambelt service this morning.

How long does the cambelt service take?

A couple of weeks.

Well at least you have the 360 and the F50 to sooth the pain.

What are your non-Ferrari cars?

Right now, just a Landrover Discovery.

Pete04222 · 03-24-2008, 11:01 PM

Yeah, Landrover. HAHAHA. What do you think Chris? I think Boxer needs a Dodge Ram Megacab with a high output Cummins turbo-diesel.

JJS612 · 03-25-2008, 01:39 AM

Boxer, as always immaculate. How many people clean up their car before it goes in for a service. As said before, at least you have your other toys to distract you during this painful period of seperation.

I have a Range Rover Sport Supercharger, but the Discovery would enhance the performance difference even more.

Great photographs, Boxer. The F40 is very adorable! The little "piggy" on the front windscreen indicates me that the car comes from Mr. Eberlein ??

I am very impressed. The F40 did come from Herr Eberlein.

He has quite the collection stored behind the dealership.
