Zippy then is a buyer from Targa Florio which would explain the many bids on different cars.
Wouldn't be the only dealer using it to source stock. For example:

Doesn’t look like it’ll meet reserve.

Nice spec but not sure about the Carbon skirts myself

The seller of that won’t be happy I’m sure.

Reading the description, the collecting cars self proclaimed ‘enthusiasts’ cant even spell the name of the Ferrari servicing dealer correctly.

Didn’t sell, can’t have met reserve.

Interesting that it’s a trade sale with such a high spec

What did it get bid up to?

458s outside the main dealer networks do stick oddly despite them been one of the most reliable supercars....

Yellow and racing harnesses (absolute pain to live In a 458 on the road) with will have restricted the buying pool somewhat.

Convinced "zippy' is a bot, bids on literally everything, from high end, to crap.

Even if it's won auctions, doesn't mean it's gone through.

A couple of users here complained about that, including the guy with the Diablo...

Seems about right with fees, I'm sure the comments didn't help.

I seem to see the same usual bidders names every time I look at a car. They must be dealers.

The dealer I traded my 599 with recently put it on the site but it didn't sell. The bids seemed quite healthy so I wonder why.. someone back out after viewing it? or was the reserve set too high

Prices and condition must be alright if dealers are bidding and winning cars. Maybe they pay a lower commission?

Do you remember those ‘Where’s Wally’ books?

This is turning into where’s Zippy.

Who’ll be the first to say ‘I’m Zippy’?

I'm all for dealer's trade/stock prices being public knowledge. More of this please.

£8k mark up on that Exige is bonkers imo.

It'll be his undoing like a lot of celebrities. Anyone in the public eye shouldn't be seen anywhere near this cesspool. To be fair, he didn't come across well on PH when he used to post on here, he got into a spat with me and started spouting all manner of ste.

No such thing as bad publicity as they say.

Harris is well established. Being allegedly connected with CC's wont do him any harm. Only serves to keep his name in car circles.

Turns out the owner of CC's and he are mates and Harris has no direct financial interest.

Hell, if Harris was my mate and i was starting a car business i'd be plastering his name all over it !
