Hmm rear wheel drive, no pesky crank sensor and hbv. Can't see where you put the shopping, dog and MIL paraphanelia like wheelchairs. maybe in a trailer. Has it got an homologated towbar?

didn't the arrows do a two seater version that they used to drive folk round in. Silverstone have got something similar. But I don't think it's anywhere near the performance of an f1 car. Though still enough horses to wake you up going in to Stowe.  :y

You might be disappointed if your hoping for no crank sensor......will likely have ten times the sensor count of a road car  ;D :y

I once went to the section of the Ferrari factory at Marranello where they keep and look after the old F1 cars.   :y

Many of these were privately owned and Ferrari provide a package where they store and maintain the car and they will transport the car to a track and provide the pit crew if the owner is taking the car to a classic event.  8)

I expect that this would even stretch Lord Opti's deep pockets!  ::)  ;)

Cripes, I know its 17yrs old and all, but £156,000,000 down to £295,000 is some level of depreciation.

I would like to do this one day, just to see the old cars of Giles Villeneuve. The greatest driver ever to sit in a racing car.
Almost had the opportunity about 5 years ago during a visit to Milan / Lake Como, but there just wasn't enough time.

Also called in there on one of my business trips to Italy and picked up some spare parts for my 72 Dino - they had them available and they were a lot cheaper than from a Ferrari dealer in the UK.
