Spring is almost here, and it’s taken it’s time…. so you might well be itching to start doing some spring like jobs on your Ferrari to wake it up from it’s winter hibernation. A guy called Birdman has an excellent website focusing on servicing and parts for the 308 and Mondial, including great guides on brake pad replacement, brake calipers, cooling system, and timing / cam belt replacement. So if you are planning to do any of these I’d recommend taking a look at his site.

Classic Ferrari Storage With A “Carcoon”

With the biggest winter chill since the last ice age enveloping the UK at the moment it would seem a good time to talk about winter storage for your Ferrari Mondial (or other Ferrari tipo). Clearly a garage is a must, but if you are worried about drips from the roof, or water ingress under the door in heavy rain, condensation, etc then the cunningly named Carcoon may be just the thing for you. I bought one for peace of mind as I noticed in driving rain I sometimes had water creeping under the main garage door. Basically the Carcoon is a giant bubble that you drive into, zip up your car, then turn on the low voltage fans which will first dry the car, then keep a constant flow of air circulating round the vechile, preventing condensation. The system also includes an intelligent battery trickle charger/conditioner. Perfect for hibernating your car over the harsh winter months!
