    I bumped my 308 into my piano (don't ask - long story), and I need some new front lenses now.

    I've emailed Jeff Howe - no response ([email protected]) . I've gone right to the Ferrari UK site - no response.

    Are these guys still dealing with the public, or did I miss something?

    Jeff is no longer with F of UK. Do a search on this site and you should come up with Malcolm West's address. He posted here making the announcement about Jeff leaving for a job closer to home.

    I'll miss Jeff's Friday afternoon pictures of the many treasures inside the warehouse. Maybe Malcolm can carry on the tradition.

    Sad to have seen Jeff leave. He was a huge help to me over the years. Best of luck Jeff.

    Still no response to any of my inquiries, and I'm not real keen on calling across the world...

    Remember, if you buy from Ferrari UK, you will have to pay shipping (crazy price) AND customs. The customs fee is not included in your order. FedEx will bill you depending on the value/weight etc. of your order. Just keep that in mind.

    Wayne,
    I do a fair amount of business with the UK and Italy, and I have found that it is best to avoid the following times:

    Spring - Too many "Bank Holidays" combined with the "bridge" where they become a 4 day weekend

    Summer - Holiday Season. Between Itlay's month off, and the rest of the continent having time to relax, don't count on anything getting done

    Fall- Time for Europe to catch up from the summer holidays, don't bother callling.

    Winter - Time for the Holiday season, nothing gets done.


    Hope this helps,
    Fred

    OK...I have to ask...how the heck did your piano get out in the garage or how did the Ferrari get in the house? Not that I would not park mine in the house if it were possible.
