Says he is a "Ferrari specialist ", I assume that means he is just some sort of mechanic. The article says that he "has a very high reputation within the Ferrari world" but this is not reflected by an availability of reliable sources. There are many company listings but none that contain really any encyclopedic information at all. Icewedge (talk) 06:12, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete; Bob appears to be a classic-car collector and restorer... the limits of notability for this profession escape me, but even by the usual standards this fails. That is, however, if you take this as a biographic article; one look at the "history" entry on Bob's website (and, more obviously, the article title) shows that this really is a blatant advert, not to mention that it veers towards WP:COPYVIO.  one brave  monkey  11:28, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Also isn't the plural of Ferrari "Ferraris"? Just a thought.  one brave  monkey  11:31, 10 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete: reads like an advert. Even with rewrite, probably fails notability. --skew-t (talk) 12:51, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:N. I did a Google News Search, a Google Book Search, etc. and there aren't any reliable third-party sources. D ARTH P ANDA duel 14:43, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
