I lost track of this thread ,have we found the whereabouts of the Ferrari 250 yet ?
A friend seems to think he knows of its whereabouts. I’ll be picking up the search in the new year.

Here’s the last picture of it I have before it went to be sandblasted.
This was before my surgery so I can’t really remember what happened after that!!

Just curious really - where do you keep all these cars - have you a massive Bond-villain underground garage or are they all over the place?
I have a BIG storage unit which I aim to fill.

Very interested in how you guys look after such fleets.. do you employ someone fulltime to care for them and keep them "alive" and arrange servicing etc??
I have also been curious about this sort of thing as well. I find it tricky enough keeping up with my cars needs and I only have one! Especially relevant when you are adding classics to the collection, I'm sure they demand more looking after than the latest cars.
Just thought I’d answer this one quickly as I’ve finally just got a chance to sit down and try to reply to some of the questions.

Yes I have a company that looks after my cars, it just so happens that they’re also my storage guys so it’s a win win.
It might take a bit of the fun out of the ownership but it’s a necessary evil haha

I have been meaning to get around to reading this thread after a few positive comments on other threads, and now that family have dissipated from the house to their own abodes, I've just done the entire thread in one hit. Amazing, and just as I'm nearing the end, thinking I wonder where it's at now, after reading about all these fabulous cars, I read the word "gullwing" cloud9

Your outlook on life and the energy (pun not intended but left in once I realised it was there) you put in to helping others is amazing.

Ref the ‘last’ 250 photo, if it was taken with an iPhone or similar, it may well have GPS data in the EXIF data that would tell you where the photo was taken.

I’m not clear if you remember where that image was taken, but if not, may give you somewhere to start...

Good luck!

Hi Pete,

Inspiring thread, if you wouldn't mind accepting 51mes on Instagram.

Happy to get involved in the north west - though my garage doesn't quite cut the mustard, you have a willing pair of hands.

That storage unit is going to be quite some sight to behold.
Petrolhead mecca!

I'd love to see pics of the classics all together, when able. Good luck on the 250 hunt!
