Ferrari Enzo in Edmonton - This morning.

[Freddie von Rost]

Storming finish to a merde week.

Picture the scene. Really early, really boring meeting in Enfield. Two hours of pain. Get into baby rice burner and head back to Tottenham. Get totally lost in Edmonton. Now beginning to lose the will to live and one of these beauties:



- with tubis methinks - comes hammering along towards me.

Sir/Madam,

If you own a red Enzo and you were in Edmonton at 10.50 this morning, then I would just like say one thing to you:

YOU MADE MY DAY! I

That's the second one I've seen with no front number plate. How do they get away with it?

don't subscribe to their way of thinking and just pay the fines.Lets face it,on the grand scheme of usage charges on an Enzo,the monthly fine for failure to display is neither here nore there.:-)

That does not look like Edmonton (London) to me!!

umm, shorts and t-shirt weather? i must be in the wrong half of london where its winter

[stevenm]

he did say that one of them came towards him - not that car, he just posted an enzo photo.

never seen one in the flesh

[andy355]

fair enough re the photo

i live in london's west end and ive only ever seen 3, 2 of which were either in a dealer or looked like were on a test drive..very rare and spectacular in the flesh

There is one in Jack Barclays in Berkeley Square at the moment. Along with a disgusting orange Bentely CGT

Plod don't bother generally. I took the front plate of my 340R and not once was I stopped - even if you are it's only a £30 fine IIRC.

with all of the forward facing cameras about this may be a top way of keeping points off your license

I figured that just a lame attempt at humour. FYI , theres one at HR Owen Old Brompton road for £600k, I almost had the cheque book out.. honest

Correct. Give the man in the hat a cigar. I would have liked to have taken a picture of the red rocket but I think its always a good idea to keep at least one hand on the steering wheel when negotiating a roundabout.

Was going to follow and race the Enzo but thought that it would be rather tactless to race him and lose him at the next set of lights.

What exactly is the maximum downside or penalty in leaving off the front plates under current legislation??

£30 at the last count. No points.

How about the rear plates?

PS: I hear from a veeery good source a special anniversary Enzo is due in 2007 to Mark 60 years of Ferrari and they'll incorporate the feedback from the FXX program in its development.
