Ferrari F355 Spider and more than you can afford, pal.

You’re considerably richer than me

Did you start reading the name of the car in January 2019?

What do you mean? Don’t follow you.

It was an attempt at humour due to length of car name.... big name that, lots of words and letters (to clarify the use of big)

Ok I get you now lol, just wanted to get down some technical details of the car instead of just calling it a Smart Fortwo. For instance the DCT automatic version costs more than the manual.

According to Parker’s my car was £ 16,520 when new...

I only paid £ 15,000 because I’m in Jersey and only had to pay 5% GST rather than the 20% UK VAT.
