Dick Lovett in Swindon had one yesterday.

They do look a lot better in the flesh.

To be fair I was on a motorcycle (an expensive one) at the time, so had a helmet on (not a good look i know when peering in the window of a prestige car garage)

I did hear 'security' and 'leave' mentioned though lol

Must have been an externally monitored/motion thing as the cameras did follow me.

ive had that one before..

i think they shout something about private property, that your face and number plate has been photographed and that the police will be called if you dont leave

Why did they not ship it back? Seeing how anal most Ferrari owners and purchasers are about mileage it seems a foolish thing to do...

[GSP]

Presumably if its a demonstrator you would want to demonstrate it by showing it with some mileage on and not having any issues?

[Blib]

I tend to believe that HR Owen know what they're doing with these things.

If you were the dealer principal what would you rather do (a) walk outside on a Monday morning to see it being reversed out of a low loader or (b) get on a flight to Italy and drive it all the way home?

Gorgeous car.

Just had a thought that 458 Italia sounds very exotic in the UK but probably less so in Italy.
