    Hello!

    It's been a while since I've been on here!

    I've verbally agreed to buy a 355 Spider from Stewart Roden in Edinburugh.

    Just wondering if anyone has ever seen or knows of this history of this car.

    All papers from 2014 onwards from the current owner but no receipts prior to that. A nicely stamped up service book though. Current owner since 2014 is nice and the condition looks well.

    Viewing on Saturday but slightly nervous with these as its a private sale as buying direct from the owner.

    Also after a Tubi for it if anyone knows of one!

    Thanks in advance

    Kev

    Have you done an MOT history check on it? Using the B7 BJA reg?

    Nothing looks ominous - just looks like it hasn't had much use so I would check the tyres are still good.

    Hi Jeff!

    Thanks for your reply.

    Yeah I've done a CarVertical HPI and check, MOT history is nice. More than happy to put a set of tyres on it, more concerned about any potential crash damage etc, the 'broker' tells me they have looked after it since 2014 and they have seen no sign of crash damage and say its a straight car so hopefully thats true!

    Very VERY excited to get a 355. I'm a bit disappointed with the noise in my F430 Spider, its not as refined as I had hoped. Still a hoot to drive still!

    So on the lookout for an exhaust for the 355, Tubi, Capristo, Armytrix & Quicksilver all seem to do them. Tubi's are non-existent to buy it seems but the others seem available, just not sure which is best!

    Ah Jeff you absolute legend!!!!

    I clearly need to polish up my google searching skills.

    Thank you very much.

    Can I ask if I am correct in assuming its the F1 Exhaust and not the Evolution version. I'm after the F1 sound but wish to be MOT compliant and not upset the police!
