Hi guys,

I've been having a chat with a global poster company who would like me to shoot an F50. Does anyone have one or know where one is lurking? A bit of fun having photos of your car hanging on bedroom walls across the globe eh? smile

I've a portfolio online at www.mattwatkinson.com and have shot for the world's leading automotive editorial publications (car magazine, evo and top gear in the uk amongst others) as well as manufacturers.

If you can help please don't hesitate to drop me a line to matt @ matt watkinson . com

Thanks for any help.

Matt

I've been looking for someone as well with an F50 to get some sound recordings for an animation, keep me posted @ email@robodea.com if you have any joy Matt.

BTW:
STUNNING photographs, absolutely lovely, razor sharp !

Carrs in Exeter and Maranello both have F50's up for sale at the moment. Both are shown on the Ferrari UK website pre-owned section.

Andy, would your friend know anyone who has one? I've actually shot for dk before but in terms of getting cars from them they are very tricky to pin down because they are so busy.

Thanks for the emails guys. If anyone else can help still please don't hesitate to get in touch! BTW while we are on the topic I always wanted to shoot a zonda for a personal project...don't all rush at once. smile

Hi there,

You're right Mr Bridgers friends F50 is really nice, I managed to have a good look at it on a couple of occasions last year. It is still one of my favourite supercars and looks really good parked next to Mr B's McLaren and also alongside the Enzo before he sold it: -

Tim

I've seen the F50 pictured above (next to the Enzo) in the metal.
Mint car but in the metal it's got an extended extremely plasticy cheap looking extended front splitter which looks minging... take it off!!!
