As its such a nice summers evening my pal Richard and I are going to take his Ferrari 355 cabrio (Mika Salo's old car) for a jolly down to Box Hill this evening.........should be fun !!

Lol !! the Ferrari isn't mine - and beggars can't be choosers.......

Just watch out for the inevitable traffic police earning a bit of overtime

The junction near the Italian restaurant is a hot-spot

Hope you had fun

I quite fancy a 355

Well, we made it out and back, went down to just past Beare Green, and stopped for a beer in a pub that was full of bikers on Harleys...

Didn't see any plod, but had a bit of a play with a chap in a Volvo T5 estate who wanted to play silly buggers right by the roundabout with the Italian on it at Box Hill, we let him scream off from the roundabout, then reeled him in and dispatched him swiftly

If we were playing a theoretical racing game i reckon we would have hit 150 on the way back on the Beare Green bypass. but we didn't because that would have been illegal. But theoretically it would have been possible

all in all a very enjoyable evening......

355's i reckon are the last of the proper ferraris, the new ones while undoubtably very fast are a bit jelly mouldish, just the 355 shape is so pretty, an instant classic if ever there was one. Put it this way, the guy i was with had a 360 as well as the 355 and he has got rid of the 360......
