Default Just got back from Monaco

We went on holiday to Nice with the sole intention for me to go and drive round Monaco, under the pretence that it would be a "nice beach holiday" for her. So a few days after arriving we drove along to Monaco. Make sure you take the toll road (

Savile Row or not, I'm afraid that suit makes you look like an estate agent

Recognize a lot of the pictures posted there - nice one! - I just got back from there last Tuesday (Nice) and had a day out in Monaco too which was fantastic - Think it was the Friday too when we visited.

Did you have a passenger ride round the GP circuit in the Ferrari 360 Spider? - it was parked at the far end of the Swimming pool (opposite direction to the Casino). They were only charging 35Euros a go. I missed out on it as it had closed when we got back from the city tour! - I was gutted to say the least!

Glad you enjoyed yourself anyway - Nice to see how the other side live!!

Monaco is great - spent a day there last summer - plenty of lovely cars. I even saw 2 Enzo's



The other one was in the Ferrari workshop.

Nice shot of the Enzo down at Leowe's.
I didn't see any myself, but I did see/head an F40 shooting up Beau Rivage past Porto Bello - what a racket they make!

I didn't go on the Ferrari lap tour (only a 355 the day I was out, check tunnel pic). To be honest I'm not that bothered though, as I saw more from walking and driving it myself. Plus the traffic is absolutely shocking along the start/finish straight until well into the early hours anyhow.

Sort of, those trousers need shortening.
