[Adam B]

he has a few cars to chose from, to be fair

Saw that at the Enzo museum, not sure how long he loaned it out for.
Looks stunning in person.

Jay Kay seems to be selling a few at the moment. Is that his F12 tdf for sale at Joe Macari as well?

If I remember correctly I’m sure I read that he collected it from Maranello and drove it home to the UK..... so that’s a decent chunk of the 1900

Well spotted i would say it was.

Didn't he shift a load of his classic stuff at auction last year?

Quick estimate ,almost 50% of it ,depending on which route he used.

So purely a financial transaction.

A shame

1,900 miles and a car lover yet offloading .... wow

He only stayed no more than 30 mins. It was an OK event. There's a story behind how my 720S ended up being a rose between all of those italian thorns.

I was told by Hoffman’s of Henley that he had collected the car from them after he had a fall out with a Ferrari dealer.

Hangs head in embarrassment.

To cut a long story short, I was at an event on the Saturday. We had to move off the area by 18:00 to make way for the Italian Passion for Speed on the Sunday. Whilst throwing coats into the frunk, I accidentally threw my keys in and closed the lid – Face Palm Time! By the time McLaren Assist arrived and opened the car, the bollards to the display area had been locked. Car remained on the display area outside of the Wales Millennium Centre overnight (luckily security kept an eye on it). Went out on the lash in Cardiff on the Saturday night with a couple of mates – woke up with a serious headache on the Sunday morning. By the time I surfaced, the Italian event was well underway, returning to find the 720S in a line-up of the cars you see in the photos.

That's ^^^^^ a reasonable excuse.
I've seen the wrong cars deliberately go into themed events before .

Lotus Elan at Auto Italia,as one example.
Renault 4 at Festival Italia another.
