cue Gad telling you how it'll cost less than an S2000 in depreciation (he's been proved right on that one!) and servicing over a reasonable period with low miles.

That'll learn ya to buy new cars Matt

Found two for sale, in Rosso Red, quite reliable, a bit slow & cramped but with black interior.

Phone F1 headquarters for details

Are you willing to import (assuming RHD version) from the continent? Friend of mine lives in Monza and there's a fair few around the area & Milan itself - I can ask her to keep an eye out?

RHD yes - but only if the other criteria are met

I've seen how the Italians treat cars

Wouldn't be my first choice because of paperwork/language etc, but not to be ruled out

So any leads gratefully received

Yeah I know It's a contact sport, driving in towns in Italy

I'll let her know and pass on any details that crop up. If anything, of course.

RHD is still occasionally ordered, for driving along mountain roads.

It is also a ruse to lead people into beleiving that they are a foreigner, so that the Tax Police leve 'em alone!
