So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Be Amazed By The Power Of A Ferrari FF

By Heather Price


Ferrari does not do progression drives. Journalists are never commonly let near a brand-new Ferrari till all the business degrees at Maranello have actually signed it off. As well as maybe offered the when over with the Pope, merely to be certain.

Yet the new Ferrari FF is different. Not only is this 612 substitute the first Ferrari to obtain four-wheel drive, as well as the first Ferrari to be officially styled as a shooting brake, but it's even the very first time Ferrari has permitted an innovation drive.

Thus the cause we've come all the way up to Arjeplog in Northern Sweden, to be the 1st site in the world to obtain behind the tire of this 660bhp FF.

Given everything, as well as the reality it's among just a couple of model FFs on the planet, the Ferrari engineer following it is rather cavalier about letting me have a go. There isn't really even an explanation of the commands, and no worrying when the Manettino gets wound round to 'Race'.

Jump in it, and you can easily recognize why. It's acquired 660bhp, I'm driving on a frozen lake, yet it all feels surprisingly managed. Even if you bury your foot from a standing beginning, it doesn't fishtail away. The FF just comfortably tries to find the traction.

It's seriously superb stuff, and it's thanks to the innovative four-wheel-drive system, not any kind of method studded tyres. It hasn't simply slapped an office differential in to the FF - it insists that is too substantial, so as an alternative the four-wheel drive is all controlled by gadgets and also a set of clutches while watching engine.

Many of the time, it's still rear-wheel drive. But if the auto's brain locates tire slip, it could deliver drive to either or both front tyres through those clutches. And also there's no mechanical link between the front and also rear axle.

Exactly what does this indicate in reality? Nothing, as well as all the things. Absolutely nothing, due to the fact that this still drives similar to a Ferrari. You can easily still do dazzling electricity slides, as well as the framework does not feel anesthetized by the four-wheel drive set-up. This vehicle is still full of feel.

And also yet it also means this is the first Ferrari that could do every thing. Snowing outside? Not an issue. Bunches of travel luggage for the household ski travel? Ha, the FF laughs facing such trivialities with its large boot.

Ferrari has actually been creating ever more functional supercars just recently, the sort that anybody may drive and also still feel like a steering god. The 2012 Ferrari FF, because of a brief innovation drive, feels like the greatest yet.
