I have joined the club

After seeing a Ferrari F430 the day before my 21st birthday I have always dreamed of owning one and that day will be here this coming Saturday.

Big horse racing fan so got the joys of Cheltenham this week but I can't get over the excitement and I'm even struggling to sleep.

Gone for a black spider and Saturday can't come quick enough. 😍

Congratulations. An excellent choice in my unbiased opinion!

Remember to post up some pics in front of some dreary looking buildings. It's become a bit of a trend

Take it easy and take time to get to know it - show it some respect. Keep it shiny side up and enjoy

Some good advice and I plan on doing exactly this just hoping the rain stays away on saturday

[Beni997]

Picking it up this morning have been up since 4 counting down the hours down, just hoping the rain keeps away

So far I've spent everyday looking at the weather forecast the sun seems to be staying away and the temperatures don't seem to want to go up so I can take the top off. Had the car a couple of weeks now and the weather hasn't let me drive it with the top down.

I have to say it took me a couple of hours to get use to but now I absolutely love it and it sounds better than I ever imagined.

Roll on summer although according to the people in the know today is the first day of the summer

Looks great. It looks slightly lower than stock? Has the ride height been dropped slightly?

Not sure to be honest

[Frrair]

That is lovely congrats.

If it's dry the top goes down - just turn the heater up! In NE Scotland if you waited for the temp to go up, you'd be waiting for the 3rd Tuesday in June.

Beautiful car - just drop the top and get out there and drive it!

1st time I've had the top down on the car today and it's a completely different beast, heaters up slightly but loved every second of it.

Even cleaned my own car myself before I went out which is the first time in about 2 years!
