Wow that sounds great, I'd be up for it if it was something like an F40 or 430 Scud - something like a 355 wouldn't interest me though, they're st.

YAZ244 is:
Make: Hanglong
Model: Ferrari

According to the RAC car history report. I wonder what Trades descriptions people and a certain company in Maranello would think to this......

can't find the DVLA vehicle checker which gives even more details - anyone got the link?

The car looks real to me and it seems like a reasonable gimmick but this was a blatant advert and nothing more.

It's real. I can tell a fake instantly from its proportions - I don't even have to start digging for details. That one is 100% pukka.

Interesting first post.

What's the bet that's Davids own site and a thinly veiled bit of advertising?
Oddly enough there is nothing to say on the site where the hell it is based, but I'd bet its in Berkssmile
What makes you say that hehe

Thanks for that - I was only reporting what I found, it certainly looked better than the MR2 355's!

Strange that the RAC site is wrong - I would have thought that their information came from the DVLA. DO you have a link to the DVLA site for getting this info?

Surely the incorrectly spaced plates must be on the lerner car just for the photos - to have them on while a pupil is taking a test risks the examiner just walking away before even getting into the car.

I know it's not the examiner's job to police these things but I have heard of them refusing to take tests out if the passenger air bag light is on despite the fact that it's a "fail safe" system and only means that the car effectively doesn't have a passenger airbag (like millions of cars).
