Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Close to topic,

A.  Good idea.

B.  Do a search on FChat in each of the regional sections, and you will find
multiple threads that do exactly what you propose.

If you wanted to create something similar, you could get a good start by
doing the above, and collecting the info yourself then publishing it in a
blog (easy enough to do with typepad or similar).  But it'd be duplicative,
and people will just continue searching and posting on FChat.

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but want to save you some effort.

vty,

Subject: [Ferrari] Close to topic,


   Why don't we compile a list of service providers that each of us are
   aware of within say a 50 mile radius of our homes and create a master
   list that all can access.... that way if some one has a problem on the
   road or wishes to hire some one for a PPI they have a common list to
   go to.

   If we are to do this, it might even give us an opportunity to share
   some areas of concern that one or more of us has had with some vendor.

   I personally would differentiate who I might use for different series
   of cars and who might be a little on the pricey side for certain
   things.

   I would hope that the list would be providing information on those to
   whom they would send their own cars.

   I do not doubt ( even though I have been doing this Ferrari thing
   since 1966) that there are competent talented shops within 100 or so
   miles of my front door of whom I have no knowledge, and I certainly
   would like to know who they are and for whom they have done what.

   It never hurts to have one more source. Service / Parts-accessories /
   books / detailing etc.

   I am sure that there are other lists created by other people, but
   every thing changes every          day....... and yesterdays list may
   be inaccurate ( good or bad)

   What I do not have a clue about (among many other things) is how do we
   create the list and who keeps it updated?

   Thanks, Phil
