This is my friend Colin's car. He bought it back in early 2004. It's a 1989 car and is pretty good shape for it's age and mileage, I think it was on about 30k miles at the time - not that the condition would have worsened in the time he's had it.

It's totally standard - as Ferraris should be - and he only uses it on dry days.

The registration plate is genuine, those of you who know what the car is will understand it and those of you who live in the United Kingdom will understand that the plate is unique and valuable. It was valued at approximately £10k - but of course, it's only worth that to the right person with the right car.

The photos were taken with a 5mp Canon Ixus and have been cropped/adjusted/poked with the Adobe stick.

Enjoy.

Thanks Bruce :) not bad for a compact cam

Yeah - it only has some very very minor cracking on the B pillar butresses - like all 348s apparently.

It rocks, I've been in it, driven it - mmmm. Just awesome

Nice shots of a great car, Dave! In the first shot it appears to have 2 roof antennas + one on the trunk. Is that an aftermarket add-on? ;)

That's the Leighton Buzzard road in/around Hemel Hempstead in Hertfordshire.

He lives a fair old trot away so it's alright ;)

I've always thought that's one of the sexiest cars ever made. Nice shots.
