Size does matter......

So there I was..... not even a chance to sniff the first coffee of the day when my better half says 'so what do you want for christmas....?'

I had far to many vodkas the night before and wasnt firing on all cylinders and so a shift to the dark side loomed..... 'A ferrari' was my reply....

One week later I woke and recieved a surprise present from her. A Ferrari F40 no less.....


.....the trouble is its a little smaller than I really wanted... two lessons learnt here... 1... be careful what you wish for... and 2... size does matter!!!

LOL Happy new year to you all

Andy

Re: Size does matter......

Might be easy to change the oil filter on but I dont see how you can do it without spilling some! Still its only a Ferrari so it wont matter,eh!
