Sambo it was F3, formula ford, TVR's, westfields. Glenfargil had a decent turnout :(

I've got some TVR pics if you want to see them I could email them?

a lot of cars in the states have them, i always thought it was just to stop stone chips on the front or something? looks like a good day, i'll need to keep my eye out for the glenvarigill day, was a cracking day last year, tons of nice metal on track and probably the sunniest day of the year :cool:

dunno why they dont just drive everywhere with the car cover on if they're so bloody worried about dirt and chips. It's not even a decent porsche! (decent = bloody expensive) :rolleyes:

Any reason you have called that 512 picture "208 turbo"?? It werent a bit special was it ?? (other than being a 512 of course :notworthy )

It werent a bit special was it ??

I believe it was, not knowing much about Ferrari's I assumed this was just one of the models available? It is badged 208turbo on the back, I've got a rear pic at home I can post up showing this.

Interesting Mr Bond - I reckon that car is almost certainly a 512BB, and the only Fezza I know with a 2 and an 8 in the name is the legendary 288 GTO. It aint one of them though I can tell yer :nod:

Im intriuged now ......... :confused:

Hmmmm, sounds wierd - not the sort of car to get the rebadged just to show off treatment IMO. Engine transplant from something else entirely different maybe?

Will post other pic this evening.

I would assume the 208 is a 208 as per the following link:

Click here for 208 info (http://www.qv500.com/ferrari308p4.htm)

2 litre V8 anyone?

Must type faster...and refresh page more often :)

The 208 was for Italy only, a reduced capacity 308 V8 with turbo's, other than that was identical to the 308, IIRC it was for tax reasons??? as 2.0 litre cars were cheaper for car tax/ purchase tax.

Odd. Dunc's 208 turbo has the 308 front end. The 208 turbo on that pic has the 328 front end???
