Look at what I saw today!! (Very rare)

[jb9193]

I'm not sure exactly the name of this model, I was speaking to the Chauffeur and he informed me there is only seven in the world... Right before the woman owner of the car came over and told him off for chipping some of the paintwork off on the front by accident LOL. So I thought I had better leave them to it!
I'm sure you will know what it is...

There was a thread on this a view months ago. Very rare cars!

I still don't know the model name though. D'oh.

It's one of those 456's that were made in estates for someone, can't remember who though?

That sounds like he would be the cheap Essex version of the Sultan Of Brunei

From Wikipedia:

"A wagon (estate) called the Ferrari 456 GT Venice was also built. Only a small handful were made by Pininfarina. Prince Jefri Bolkiah of Brunei ordered seven to be built. After Pininfarina designed and built them, the prince only purchased six."

^ Golly. Do you suppose this was the one he didn't purchase?

I presume it must be! Unless he sold some of them...?

A lot of them were released back into the wild.

Imagine buying a Ferrari and having your chauffeur drive it for you.

As someone who adores fast estates, WOW!

I want that. No I need that.

I'm off to go mug this Brunie guy!
