Each of the three damaged panels were $6k each from Ferrari.
With labor, the repair cost was prohibitve and the Italian stallion monster was totalled.


I used the proceeds to "downsize" from the 4.7 litre naturally aspirated Ferrari engine to a 2.0 litre turbo diesel Jaguar engine. Four wheel drive and 35 mpg will be good for my long daily commute over the range.
Enter my new to me Jag (or as Jeremy Clarkson says "Jaaagggggggg"). Jaguar F-Pace 20d.


Many of you may know I'm a bit of a Jag man. My first car was a '62 MK2 3.8 4sp/od red on black with wire wheels. I also had a '69 XKE. Still in my carport is my '97 XK8 coupé that I'm working on a LS1 conversion.
The Jag will be delivered Monday or Tuesday after some warranty exhaust and turbo gaskets are installed.
Happy motoring.
