That yellow 275 is gorgeous!!

I love old Ferrari's. They make me drool

Also spotted the 550 Barchetta next to the Enzo. I thought the driving position in the S matched the Barchetta's slightly. (Kinda over-stayed my welcome sat in one at Essex Ferrari ) It's the way that everything's right there for the driver. Just you and the car.

One day I'll save enough for a Ferrari...one day...

Next time you're doing this let me know so you can stop by for a cup of coffee at J9



Having worked in Central London for 3 and a bit years now all of these 'exotic' cars are common as muck to me, they really don't exite me as much as it used to when still in NL and these really were a rare sight

Nothing special other than a chap taking pictures of his 456 on the bank of the Thames.

V12 Carbon Black Special Edition

Had to get something special to replace the Turbo....I am sure prices will continue to drop for all such machinery but there are some great deals to be done from new especially this side of 1 March .

My mate was cleaning his cars today. Took a few pics of the nice ones. Although he also has a 1 year old 911 4s, a bentley soft top, 5 series estate and a range. He has a large driveway lol



And this, it only has 14,000 o the clock.

That is fooking awesome

Worth of a thread on it's own!

What did you think of it power wise? Faster than the 911 I guess.

The 458 is the best and nicest car i have ever been in. The power and the noise is incredible. Compared to his old DCT M3, its in a different league. The 911 he has just bought, picks it up on Wednesday so haven't seen this yet.
