The next car

[milanbenes]

My area has some very high net worth individuals - some of whom have been pointed out to me or identified themselves. (The latter tend to be tossers.) However they are more likely to have a £10K push bike than a sports car.

thanks for that one Sue, yeah, useful to know

Anyway, back to the subject...

Your thread is boring so talking about random tulip makes it more interesting especially when the random tulip has inferences to you.

ok you got me, out of curiosity, when a high net worth (whatever that means today) individual identifies themselves to you, how does the transaction actually work ? I mean, they walk up and say, hi Sue, I'm a high net worth individual would you like to see my [Blankety Blank] or how's it done these days

curiously there are a lot of people out there who would like others to think they are high net worth, and cars is a very very inaccurate measure of wealth because any old monkey can get finance and find a way to have a shiny motor on their drive

Regarding 10k bikes, what is the point ?

A bit like your missus when Shaunbhoy pops over then?

I doubt his mobility scooter could get up our hilly drive.

Have you considered the Jag F-pace?

I am waiting to see the E-pace; if I can get BGG's wheels in the boot it will be mine.

As a poor permie the F-Pace is out of budget

1) from the front, it really looks like they went to China, bought a product and stuck their badge on it
the badge panel is huge with a little cat in the middle

2) I don't trust anything coming out of Jaguar Landrover, as the experienced ones say, only buy a Jaguar/Landrover new and sell it before you get to 50k miles

1969 Ferrari GT4 2+2 V12, six twin choke Webers, petrol dripping out the exhaust pipes.

The one with the six round tail lights and spinners...

is that the same as a 400/412 or earlier

I've always liked the 400/412, but before I buy an old car, I need to build another garage or a barn.

It is!

Nearly bought a RHD one from Ibiza, was looking forward to the drive back, but car was brown and no way was I driving a brown car...

[milanbenes]

Brown was one of the colours, classic and sports car did a spread on the 400 a few years and took a brown one for the article

I love that model it's my favourite Ferrari, but not many like it

it's a proper V12 (SAS will love it), 4 seater grand tourer and still almost affordable

one that surprises me is the Ferrari Dino, for the last 30 years fanatics laughed at the Dino, and now suddenly in the last couple of years the Dino has become the darling of the classic car world and prices for Dino's are now like quarter of a million upwards !!

what happened ?
