Guy is definitely a petrolhead. A COLOUR BLIND one.

The car looks horrific. Hat's off to him for following through on such appalling taste nonetheless.

I have to say I like it, and more so having seen the videos of it in motion. It reminds me of David Piper's green Ferrari prototypes.

seen his band live a few times , without doubt the best band I've ever seen , as tight as a nun .He's a proper old school entertainer , he comes across as a good guy who doesnt like being harassed by cameramen (who can blame him) ,but never heard a bad word said about him from people who've met him. Got a cracking taste in cars too.

He's lives not far from Aylesbury where I am from (try not to tell everyone it's a st hole). He used to come into town with Denise Van Outen in one of his Lambos to go to a club.

As well as being a great performer I think he writes all his own material, hence the extra millions. Far play to him.

Does anyone know the list of cars he owns ?
I have a customer who was a long running Ferrari employee and is very good friends with him and says what a massive car nut he is.

There have been a couple of videos about his collection....I think there's one with Tiff if you search youtube.

I saw him driving into London recently in a lovely looking Merc 280SE 3.5 Convertible a few months ago....looked stunning. Oh and he's got a stunning purple 2.7 RS...as you do.

Jay Kay bought a 997 GT3 RS 4.0 (LHD) off a mate of mine about a month back too.

I saw him near his house (Horsendon Manor) in a white old Rover P Series not long ago too

He has a couple of pimped up G-Wagons too.

Said in that vid he sold the Miura. Never forget when it featured in Top Gear.

Was lucky enough to go to a BBQ at his house a couple of summers back. Saw two sheds full plus more, easily over 50 cars, probably closer to 100. He probably has more off site.

Saw him in Central London, last summer, driving through Belgravia, in a LHD Burnt Orange Muira LP400, with an appropriate blonde in the passenger seat! I was on my Panigale, and he wound down his window and had a little chat - saying that the bike was beautiful! He just loves motors.

Prince Bernhard special green Ferrari 500 Superfast Speziale, only 37 of these. He swapped the 5 litre for a 4 litre.
Enzo Ferrari: "Aerodynamics are for people who can't build engines." Mmmmh, he said that before he did the 250 GTO LM cars.


36 were made: this excludes this one-off 330 GT 2+2 produced with a Superfast-style body for HRH Prince Bernhard of The Netherlands.

Not sure of this green on JayKays LF ... personally I'd like it darker. The piper colour looks great, but on a racing car.

This green though:

... would look stunning, even on an LF.

Agreed?

No it was Domino's Pizza in Uxbridge road next to Tesco. Jason was sacked after he bumped into an old dear whilst exiting the store. Being one of lifes non conformists Jason could not just apologise but had to give her some abuse about how she should look where she was going. The woman complained to the head office and Jason was history.

I happened to see Jay Kay in his LaFerrari on the M40 today - my first LaFerrari in the flesh too.

Lovely looking car I've decided - mine wouldn't be so green though!
