Collecting a Ferrari California

[Cliosaregay]

A family friend asked if i could get some pictures of his new car which he picked up today from Dick Lovetts in Swindon. Such a great experience seeing the handover and the cars in the showroom were simply awesome! Wont upload them all on here but heres a few from today...

Stunning cars and great pics. What a lucky guy

I got driven up the hill at the Goodwood FoS in a Ferrari California a couple of years ago, it was AWESOME.

I used to prefer Lambos, but now I'm not so sure.

Im glad that garage isnt near me,he would get pretty pissed off with me turning up all the time and not buying anything.

Nice photo's.

F50 > all

What is the Ferrari on the ramp next to the 328? Is it a 599?

Looks like a 599 to me with different wheels and graphics?

The front plate is huge on the california!

The White F12 is special. Never seen one in that colour.

Awesome.

Great cars, great pics. I saw a Z8 in Germany last summer. A generally bad reception but I adore them.

 

[jayxx83]

Very nice pictures and certainly a dream come true. A shame that the Cali isn't the prettiest f car made. The new one addresses those concerns comprehensively however.

 

[DB.]

Any more pics? Fourth one down is my favourite by a mile,

[Lal B3N]

That is one epic looking garage. Some stunning metal, nice photos!

 

[Tom]

Is she pleased with the California?

 

[Eddie.]

Awesome pics!

F50 is amaze.

I wonder if the quality & finish of Ferrari paintwork is as bad as when you pick up a new car from VW / Ford / Honda etc. You sometimes see extensive swirl marks, which is surprising given they're supposed to be brand new cars. I guess Dick Lovett don't let the work experience kid loose on stock with a bucket and scratchy sponge...

Very nice F40 and F12 look great.

I agree its a nice experience! My F430 came from the same place, pity the weather is so crappy at the minute though...

lots of very nice cars there, and the receptionists aren't half bad either

Dick Lovett employ 3 full time detailers so no, everything that leaves there is immaculate!

Had a job interview for a sales role there last year, and the sales managers work ethic is awesome. Shame it didn't work out as would've loved to work there
