If you think about it, the guy who has the two ferraris has picked to live in a cheap house and have two really really really expensive cars rather than have a cheaper car but a far better house. I can't say it would be my choice, even for an F40.

To be fair, looking at the angle the photo's been taken at, that house could actually be quite big and luxurious, and the garden to the rear looks quite large and leafy - it's only the scruffiness of the garages that suggests it's down-at-heel. It may well be a clever charade - those garage doors could be concealing a more 'appropriate' garage for a Testarossa and an F40, but look like that on the outside to put off potential thieves. After all, nothing says 'lots of things worth nicking here' like a pair of massive monogrammed electric gates.

And what about the location - a house like that in certain parts of London or Manchester would cost a fair amount no matter how modest it looks.

Doesn't it belong to Raun Austin?

It's central London however, so not really incongruous!

Any excuse to post a pic of my car and then slag it off.



Surprising location [Italy] as it usually breaks down in the home counties.

Such a lovely car. But my real question is what is the car in the background?

Someone on the Classic Cars & Yesterday's Heroes forum once posted up a Bugatti Atalante they found in a supermarket car park in Leeds.

There was a Type 35 Bugatti parked outside the pet shop in Saffron Walden last week. People were just walking past not paying much attention.

I've spoken to the owner in the past, he has two of them in his garage and they're real.

Id just love a Bugatti 35 too pop down to the shop in on a Sinday morning for the papers. Anything pre-war and sporty would do, maybe a little MG Midget or Magnette.
