Nice to see you back.
What got sold and what got kept in the end?
I sold the 430 Scud, 575M, Singer DLS and the Bentayga. What got sold and what got kept in the end?
However I replaced the Bentayga with another Bentayga, bought a Network Q winning Mini, bought the New Zealand winning Burns/Reid Subaru, and got a DB5 to replace the one that was stolen years ago.
Sooooooooo, not really doing to great to be honest haha

Why the change of mind on the DLS, I recall you saying you were a bit "underwhelmed" by the first one ?
This is true but it would have also been better if it worked properly and I had more time with the car, getting the next one in lhd will help a lot more with time spent in it.

Thanks, it’s much better than my gimp suit I have. Saying that I was 107kg when this was taken, I’m now around the 90kg mark so will need a new suit for this season, otherwise I’ll look like some teenager going for his first job interview who’s lent his fathers shirt haha.
I am getting a fair few cars whilst I’m in Dubai but it’s not what you’d expect.
My Purosange is currently sat at Stratstone Manchester waiting to be picked up alongside my 296 GTB and my soon to be delivered 296 GTS, 812 Competizione and SF90 XX.
I’m trying to work with Ferrari to see if I can do a swap and get them swapped at Ferrari Dubai. We will see.
But my day to day drive over there will be a GMC Yukon Denali. Love them, they’re so oversized it’s stupid.
The new suit, being smaller, may be lighter and shave nanoseconds ....I am getting a fair few cars whilst I’m in Dubai but it’s not what you’d expect.

Good luck with getting the cars in DBX instead of Manc.
The SF90XX looks like a weapon! Gonna have it our on the track?
The road to Oman is pretty special - that would be some journey in that or the 812C

Yep, as is this: https://www.dkeng.co.uk/ferrari-sales/1854/blue_ch...
What do you think he wants for it? 2-3mill?

No idea. A Lusso is around £1.5m, so given the extent of the work done on this I’d say £2m minimum. But does originality count with these? Is it devalued because of the mods?
I’ve spent quite a bit more than £500k getting her back to how she originally was. This is how she was from factory, it raced like this during the 60’s-90’s (lots of photos of it on the web from back in the day). I have just brought her back to how she originally was, the only difference I’ve done is added wider wheels from the GTO, the GTO gearbox (NOT CHEAP!!!!), and upgraded her to a 3.3 just like the 330 LMB. All of this can be easily reversed. Oh and I’ve taken out the plexiglass and added in real glass so I can take her out on the road and park up and leave her without stressing about someone breaking in and driving away.
Besides, I’ve decided I’m keeping all my classics now and they’ll be coming over to join me in Dubai. There’s a decent classic car culture here and this would just sent people crazy.
