    Looks the same but I doubt they would make such a mistake - pity they both have race seats since they will mainly be used to cruise in.

    I don't think its the same car, the tax and insurance discs seem to be in different positions on the windscreen of the car. I could be going mad tho.

    It might not be for trackday use as you can purchase these seats as extra from ferrari.The guy who is selling (parkwest) is an italian and is well into his racig at mondello so he may well have brought it to mondello for a trackday :)

    I'm not so sure. The front reg plate has no black surround, one of them has a Ferrari type sticker in the bottom right corner of the windscreen and one doesn't, and as already mentioned, the tax+insurance holder is in different places. Why would it be advertised in two different dealerships?

    They might be selling it for each other.larger audience will notice the car with 2 dealers.

    The more I think about it the more it seems like they are the same car, but it still seems a little pointless to me to have them in two seperate dealers.

    same reason people sell house with two different estate agents. more exposure to the market.

    Both those dealers have a 348 in stock also, but don't think it is the same one.

    I thought Sport & Classic was a selling agent as opposed to a dealer. What I mean is, they sell cars on behalf of 3rd parties and do not own the stock??

    looks like the one in sports and classic has a longer reg number... closer to the edge of the plate

    one is down as an auto and the other a manual

    can you imagine trying to parallel park that auto with the paddle shift???

    I think that is the beauty of owning a Ferrari, you don't have to parallel park, you just drive into your designate parking space, or though the keys to the valet and demand there is no scratches and you do know the mileage.

    No the both of them were the F1 f430's with the padde shift and that is also automatic.Also it looks like its different cars as sports and classic have updated their stock .:)
