Welcome back Pete, loving the 355!

Thanks.
Funny story to that. It’s quite rare being a Fiorano handling pack one. I was so excited to buy it that I got a bit giddy whilst I was at JCT600 that I talked myself into buying a lovely 599GTO to put the cherry on the top haha.

Welcome back Pete.

Nothing beginning with a Z yet ?

Brilliant what you are doing for the NHS, and brilliant that the others are pissed off, the companies that are sucking the NHS dry.
I’m still looking for the perfect Zonda. That’ll be my unicorn.

She's gonna absolutely adore that car and I'm sure you will too. I bet it'll look mega too for being different.
She’s only 3 so I’ll be driving it for a few years. I’ll be taking her on track when she’s about 8 or 9, to coincide with her karting. She’s not really a girly girl, I’m teaching her how to box at the moment and my wife wants her to do ballet. I think I’m definitely going to win haha.

Really glad to see you're back mate nice to see the collection is growing!

Are you still using Jordan for the videos on YouTube?

How's the hunt for the F40 & F50 going? I think towards the end there were some possibilities of getting them?

Also nice to see your getting some use out of the lusso.
I am indeed yes, he’ll be on Sky 1 this December racing his way around the world in some great cars. There’s plenty of good opportunities for him that’s coming from that show. I’ve just been trying to help him get his racing career of the ground.

Yeah just working on getting this very special F40 at the moment (non cat, non adjust, UK supplied).

Done 1300 miles in the Lusso since May so it’s definitely get some good use. Bloody love that car, might just be the best all round GT/Supercar on the market in that price range. It’s power is so linear it’s untrue. A real handful too with all that power.

Like many others have said, it's great to see you back Pete. I was a big fan of your refreshing 'no frills' real world style on your Instagram page.

You've obviously had a lot of experience and interactions with many different manufacturers, so out of interest, who is your favourite to deal with? Who really makes you feel valued and special and who is a nightmare to deal with.
Ohhhh that’s an easy one.
Ferrari are fabulous with their VIP’s but not that interested with their ‘walk ins’. Shame really as you can never tell who will end up being a fanboy.
Porsche Wilmslow and Aston Wilmslow are just the worst. Their customer service doesn’t even exist.

Welcome back. Sure I saw you in Wilmslow Ferrari a few weeks back.

There was talk about you securing another LFA, did you manage to grab another?
You should have come over and said hello.
I did secure another yes........to only get let down after a firm handshake on it. Gutted.

welcome back Pete ! I do hope you have the inclination/time to do YT vid's in 2019 as that looks like its going to be an epic year (not that 2018 wasn't). If not I'll bookmark this and lurk !
Yeah I’ll have some dropping very soon. We’ve bought a Hackney Cab for Jordan’s stag do. Talking it to ‘The Ring’ to see if he can tackle Sabines 10 minute lap that she did in Clarksons transit a few years back. Feel free to lurk as much as you want though.

Everyone else has already said it but, welcome back and thanks for the amazing charity work, great to see your stunning garage still growing, but, and this is the important one, have you finished that sodding house for your ever so patient wife yet??? smile
Ermmmmm!!!
I DID finish it, but after the second day of putting in a new kitchen and a whole new floor I decided I didn’t like it so ripped it all up again.
I did finish putting another floor on the house though so that’s one good thing.
I feel like Oslo from ‘Keeping Up Appearances’ sometimes haha

Sounds like a great break for him then!

The F40 sounds like a very special deal then especially being UK supplied, does that mean it's right hand drive as well? I'd love a lusso i totally agree with the best GT/Supercar in that price range i don't think anything even compares.

Have you got the DB4 sourced ready for the big day too?
No, they never made any Rhd F40’s. The Sultan of Brunei had 7 converted though but they just don’t drive the same.

I’m assuming by big day you mean the wedding, in which case yes I did. Not a DB4 though, I went for a DB5. I’ll see if the wife has any pictures of it on her phone and if so I’ll post on here. Warming though, there’s some sexy legs in the shot so don’t get too excited haha.

I'm not one for modern cars or Ferraris but a 599 GTO is a must for me if I ever to quote Ferris acquire the means. I'd have mine in TDF with tan leather.

Yeah that’s a good colour combo.

Car question Pete.... sort of anyway.....

Do you insure each car seperatly, or do you have some kind of ‘covers everything’ car insurance... ?


Or isn’t it all admiral multicar.... hehe
Hiscox do it all for me through Coutts. It’s a complete policy and it’s make my eyes water just thinking about it haha

Another question. If you love the fiat so much you want to stop using it ‘in case’..... why not just buy another one, identical in all respects. Have one to keep, one to use.
Because just like ‘Highlander’. They can be only one.

Hahaha yep you were right there's some legs there laugh stunning car though and glad it got finished in time too!

Sorry about my ignorance RE the F40 I thought they made right hand drive ones for some reason.

Oh Yeh what did you buy when you went to red line in the LFA that time you got the car event day wrong? Never got to find out!
Another LFA but got let down even though I shook hands on it. Gutted.
