Though he's probably not overly interested in being my friend....

Visited a customer today to setup his Home Cinema - he let me have a little peak in his garage, and what did i spy

A Ferrari 250 GT Short wheelbase - reputed value £1,500,000 yikes Obviously i didnt go in the garage - just looked on longingly, parked along side it was a 595 in the most fanastic Cherry Red Metallic. We fitted heating into the garage a while back as he doesnt like his cars getting cold

The obligatory petrolhead discussions then ensued, though my list of cars somewhat lacked compared to his 63 in storage, including Porsche Carrera GT, a matching 250GT Long wheelbase, and numerous other Ferrari's, Lambo's, American Muscle including Humvee's Vipers etc., and my favourites a full collection of classic VW's

I have no doubt that he does actually own this lot, as i also got to see his collection of Chess pieces, which according to a Times article on this guy are worth £1,000,000 too.

All in all a nice day out, and a small glimpse for me in to the life of the super rich and what turned out to be a really nice guy..

Yep definately had a proper passion for the cars themselves, not just for their value.

Which is totally different to one of my other customers, International/Premiership footballer - last time round his house, two cars on the drive a Black Range Rover Overfinch, and a Black Ferrari something - both had expired road tax, the Ferrari was as dirty as hell, and had a flat tyre - gutting to see cars treated like that - obviously status symbols rather than having them for what they are !!

All that money, you could just close your eyes and think of exotic cars. That's what i'd dohehe I'm sure the wife would understand

As for wearing him out, your probably right. Col's asleep and it's only 9pm hehe
