A statement of the obvious really but judging by some e-bay prices not something that everyone thinks of:
If you are seeking the various Ferrari bits for originality don't forget to check the prices of the various ex Ferrari bits at you local Ferrari dealer - some items cost a lot less from them than the same regularly go for on ebay.
They also have a good stock of most of the bits we need for our cars. I'd been trying to track down the little heater control knob for ages - had seen a number on ebay over the years all for £50 + - marranello quoted £23 and had the item in stock new.
This doesn't always work - but I was pleasently surprised this time.
(You also get to sit in the casr in the showrrom too!)
