Seems a bit pointless to have 2 of basically the same car. Even the TDF has the same basic engine. Lovely cars but lacking in imagination slightly IMHO.

I'm sure you basically had to have purchased a LaF to even get a sniff of a chance of ordering one of these, so more a couple will go to collectors who already own the original.

I expect he's one of the poorer ones on that list. Quite a comeback, wasn't he all-but-bust a while back?

White with a grey stripe though? One wonders. Even Chris Evans wouldn't have ticked the grey stripe box, but good on the guy for doing exactly what he wants

The stripe is fairly subtle, far more so than the racing stripe on the TDF pictured.



I'd probably have painted the line tighter to the air vent on the bonnet rather than carrying on so far past it and onto the nose as IMO it'd look better but I guess it could be a lot worse.

Whats the chances he's swearing in this pic?

Yeah, you can't mistake the deep, captivating green. Looks so sleek with the roof rack delete too.

Can we get a thread on the other 199 owners?

Front number plates not required on supercars ?

It's a TDF Edition so much the same as the stripes on most 360CS, 456 Scuderia and 458 Speciales you see.

The one in the background appears to have the roof rack. Can't ignore the practicality.

Why do these people think it's OK to have no front number plate? They should have to follow the rules like all the rest of us. Tossers!

[Toyoda]

Is this the cr4ppy plates thread?

[thomasjonny69]

Undersized and deliberately mis-spaced number plate...................Council!

[Krikkit]

Don't think it's under-sized, but it is mis-spaced.

Personally, no. His businesses were struggling and I believe he had to put in a large amount of his own £££ to keep them going.

Actually I'm not in the slightest bit bitter, it just annoys me that people openly flout the rules and seemingly get away with it.
Why should a millionaire super-car owner be any more "exempt" from the rules as me or any other road user?

f'ing fairplay to the mouthy f***cker. He has worked f'ing hard for his b*****d car and so why not buy a f*****g F****ari. It even illiterates.

Well said!
Just out of interest, I thought he was bankrupt at one stage? I'm sure I read he fell out with a family member and it all went sour.
Maybe I'm totally wrong but he's obviously got a few bob now!
