Spotted Peter Saywell (UK's leading collector of supercars) yesterday, whilst I was at Meridien Modena in Lyndhurst.
There was a brand new Ferrari 599 in black with one of his AOG registrations, sitting awaiting collection.
I can never keep up with his collection, but I am sure it still includes, Pagani Zonda, Murcielago LP640, Koenigsegg, etc.

I think I'd be dull and have metallic burgundy. Or maybe blue. Or black (no, on second thoughts no more black cars).

If someone would be kind enough to spec these colours, I'll buy it off them in a few years' time.

And a lot more besides - about 15 cars I believe.

He has also within the last week collected a Black Continental GT to replace a Silver one. The Silver one is now on the dealer forecourt opposite my work which still has an AOG plate.

I had a quick chat with him in Brighton last year at the Lambo Brooklands to Brighton bash. He was driving his Zonda Fsmile

These were taken at Peter Saywell’s charity track day just before Easter; it was done in conjunction with the DeTomaso Drivers club and was a AAA rated day out

Asides from these and the cars featured on Fifth Gear I think I’m correct in saying he has a Kremer 962 and possibly a 935 as well







The new 599 will be taking part in the Drivers Parade before Le Mans with one or two of his other cars as well for those of you rocking down to central France in the not to distant future and his next charity day at Goodwood is on Saturday October 20th where there is sure to be a load more exotica on display as well for those who fancy a gander.

Very nicecool
I know of about 10 more cars that he had coming upto about 2 years ago, so it has probably changed a fair bit since then, and I'm pretty sure there wasnt a Kremer 962 and a 935, I could be wrong though.

Met him twice at Goodwood and once at Brighton last year for the Lambo get together.

Not the 'easiest' people to talk to but he has enthusiasm for cars which is all that matters imo.

Here are a couple more from the same day, I’m not sure if the Kremer 962 is his but somebody from the DTDC did tell me there was a couple of Le Mans Porsche’s in his businesses reception which I guess has the upper hand on a fish bowl and coffee machine



In the picture with the 962 you can just see the back of very interesting Saudi registered Diablo SE30 that Mike Pullen of Carerra Sport turned up in, somehow the Saudi plates really set the beastie off well in my humble



Still however nice they all are the fastest thing round Goodwood that day was still a CGT owned by a regular on the Porsche forum, mind you Peter Saywell has got one of those as well
