Good lord! I'm going to Italy later this month or early next month to get the details (chassis numbers etc) of a 250F which is owned by a friend. His father owned it for 25-30 years keeping it in a barn.
It has a racing history as well and painted in white.
Did anything come of this? Do tell, it must be quite something if an original.

I wonder if it's pay on the gate so you get the chance to turn round or Anpr so as soon as you go past the camera they've got you for £100 as 30 seconds is covered by up to 8 hours

How they can justify those charges is beyond me. At least Dick Turpin wore a mask. I wonder what the capacity of the car park is ?

It’s event parking at Wembley (as in at the stadium, not up the road), so if you are attending a big event, where they prefer people to arrive by public transport, you pay a lot. If you are a club Wembley member, this cost will hardly register.

Outside of events it’s around £7 a day.

Anyway, back to pictures of cars.

from back in the day when we could have breakfast in Cannes and dinner in London. If caught by one of these it was 1000FF and on your way, no danger of confiscation or prison sentence.

A mate of mine was travelling through France and Spain on his motorbike in the 70s. Certain provinces allowed you to ride without a helmet and for others it was mandatory. He got mixed up geographically and pulled up to a set of lights without his helmet. A Gendarme approached him from behind and smacked him on the back of his head and screamed “where’s your helmet”. He turned around and the cop had got his hand rested on his gun. It seems they believed in swift justice!

It's good that we're all different.

I think that car is one of the ugliest I've ever seen.
It looks like it was designed by Stevie Wonder on acid.

No offense of course :)
