Really stunning 812 and with Painted Shields. What Rosso is it ?

Thanks. It’s Rosso Coburn, I really wanted painted shields after seeing a car with them.

I think its 6-9 months to UK customer cars but there's a few cars around both as marketing plants and dealer display - oh and I think first magazine test drive reviews are due Wednesday this week

Thanks for that, I am just checking how she knew it was that model, she was parked alongside it in her daughters school grounds, so I am guessing she saw the name.

No external naming on Ferrari, so unless looked in the window and saw it stitched on the dash then she most just be a secret car geekess. Saw one at a viewing last month but that car was unregistered and being shipped around the Uk- looking forward to seeing first one on the roads but thought that was still some months off?

OMG now she tells me she mixed up the word Porsch with Purosangue then says the car had four sets and Ferraris only have two, so I am now thinking she saw. a Porsch and somehow googled and found the Purosangue, this is the same daughter who told my son (who loves his cars), her friend is coming around later in her Corvette.

So we re anxiously looking out of the window and a Citroen 2CV turns up with her mate, we said you said it was a Corvette, to which she replied “Well I knew it started with a C”.

So we shall never know for sure, but my bets on she didn’t see a Purosangue.

For info Ferrari is no longer taking orders, and fox business says it is sold out for the next years, didn’t want one anyway

Are we allowed to post cars we don’t own?

A friend of mine asked me to take his 812 Competizione to a track day he organises the other day. I had no idea what I’d be driving (he has quite a few very expensive cars) and he simply threw me the keys and left me to it. To be honest even after driving it all day and getting it back safely I had no idea what I’d been driving and the value of it until I did some internet investigation…..

The car was so easy to drive, of course it’s bonkers fast but I didn’t do anything I shouldn’t have done and it came back in one piece. Everything about the car was absolute perfection. The colour, factory yellow touches and interior were all as you would expect, glorious. I didn’t drive it in auto, only manual but even so this is a car you could daily easily (aside from the fact it is soooooo long at the front and you might jut affect the value!). Getting used to the rear view mirror was a bit odd but again that felt quite normal fairly quickly but cars do appear to be very close when they’re not.

And the noise of that V12 with 800+ BHP on tap….





Had a go in a Senna as well which was also pretty impressive but IMO the Ferrari won the day for me.

Love it, think that’s Viola Hong Kong paint, just needs the larger Painted Shields, standard shields look too small in this area..

Ah lovely. That Tim's? Thought he was getting rid of his McLaren's after some frustrations with them last year.
