That's entirely proper, I'm not sure what the guy above's boner on it is for or what that quoted pic was for BUT what you have posted here and elsewhere (as woppum) allows identification of your real name and job. I don't think you can do much about that now but just think you should be aware.
No idea either.. It's not my P1, house or part of the country I live in. I wont discuss my personal life on here, why should I. I am afraid any jibberish quoted will have to stay speculation. A sad state of affairs if you ask me on a car forum. I stupidly thought that was what we were here to discuss. Happy to chat all things cars but nothing personal.

Oh absolutely! But given your (entirely proper) wish for privacy what you post in the future should probably not give detail like in the past which without any speculation confirms your name and job. I won't post it here just to prove that but some fool might.
I'm not fussed mate, I'm simply not that interesting ! Just a car nut smile

Not really. People see a relatively young bloke who has a collection of top supercars worth several million quid. It's human nature to be inquisitive about what they do or how they got the funds to buy and run them.

It's something again to come straight out and just ask 'what do you do?' on a forum though. The best practice is just to ignore and people should get the message that it's not a welcome question.

That said you don't exactly have to be Inspector Morse to find out who Woppum is or what he does in a few mins on Google.

Back to the cars - Has the GTO gone now?
Never googled myself God knows what Google says. I'm a trader these days if you really have to know and loving the volatility. Those that are negative well:




GTO is for sale as I don't use it but not sold yet.
No not bothered about classics at the moment as I just don't have the time. Like cars I can track smile

Mine is the black left hand drive car with DK at £465k. Cheapest on the market and I think a fair price. I'll keep it if doesn't sell.

Fair enough,

No interest in the LaFerrari to make the hyper "3" ?
Not at today's prices. Plus they are hard cars to maintain and between the P1 and the 918 I don't think it would get a look in. I'd rather the money.

A quick question, if this has been asked before I apologise.

I have seen a number of pics and videos of your P1 being driven in track mode on the street, isn’t the car supposed to be illegal in track mode on the street and if this is the case does that not invalidate your insurance?
No idea. It handles totally different in race mode, it's amazing how the car totally changes its set up. It has to be done.

But why drive in race mode on the streets of London?
Car feels totally different in race mode even in London. The car takes about 30 seconds to hunker down, make its toe and camber more aggressive. The steering then gets more weighty and direct and of course there is the added thrill of controlling 1000bhp with just your right foot!

However as you seem so offended by it proof it's in race mode out of London too!
