Due to large quantities of complaints about me including the image of the 488 I have removed the image.

This thread did not achieve what I originally set out to achieve (speak to the owner). I understand that it was an insensitive act so I apologise to all.

Let's all move on and if you want to admire the 488 just google image one. Failing to google search, head into Knightsbridge and Mayfair where I've seen many a 488.
fair enough - don't see what the big deal was given that I don't think there was even a street sign visible. And if somebody wanted to steal a Ferrari, they could just steal it from the street in London

hope this one or another owner gets in touch with you so you can take some pics
good luck

Edgware road seems to be littered with them at the moment, loads of Rolls Royce's.
Take not anyone who wants to clone a 488... laugh

Rolls Royce are a given in Central London! Wrapped ghosts, mansory wraiths, all sorts.

Neither do I particularly, but other people obviously do so I guess its not worth keeping the image up when some of what they was saying does make sense. But yes, agreed, steal a Ferrari in London, there's always a 458 on the corner of Sloan street... Ohh yes and I believe the number plate is "K4NAV" for anyone wanting to clone...

Thanks a lot though mate. Someone finally speaking some sense! Appreciated.

I can't believe people are bhing about the photo of it outside a house. Worrying about it being cloned.... Honestly....

OP, if you come to up north I will get a 488 out for you to photograph.

The OP should have blanked out the number plate and any house numbers or street signs (if visible). If the owner or close friend is on here, and they want to be contacted, they will recognise instantly the house and car without the ID and get in touch.

Of course, taking a photo of a car parked on *private* property, from a public street, is not illegal, but it is not the most ethical practice and the owner would be within their moral rights to get niggly.

Or get yourself to Supercar Sunday at Goodwood in May, more supercars than you can shake a stick at.

Don't shake sticks near supercars though ,HSE n all.

It's a bit more local to you than Adz going by his location.
