Ouch, threadjacked on the first reply! hehe

But seriously, that Ferrari is gorgeous.

And that Maclaren is a superb bit of kit!

How much is the Mac? A million I'd guess?

It looks stunning and the pictures of the black pig just confirm to me how good and timeless it is.

10 seconds in that showroom and i'd be a jibbering mess. 250 SWB and a Macca F1 in the same room?

MMMMmmmmmm the 250 is my second fav after a Muira, and on a chavtastic note that 360 looks a bit special. Not a big fan of 360's but I like that!

Forgive my possible ignorance, but isn't an 'N' registration model year circa 1975?

Which wouldn't tally up with a 60's Ferrari? confused

Mebbe it's a kitcar based on a 240Z. I'll offer them £2500 and see what they say. biggrin

An HPI check shows it as a 1962 Ferrari 250GT with 8 previous owners. Although it was first registered 16/01/1975 hence the 'N' prefix.

Does the first registration in 1975 imply it was just a race car priot to this? Does the 1975 date also mean that you'd need to run it on white and yellow plates!

Presumably, the next owner could spring for a decent cherised "250" number unless the current reg has some significance?

Overall, it certainly looks the business although I'll keep saving up for an alloy bodied one....

One of my favourite cars, can't beat the 250 series Ferraris in my opinion.

This ones been for sale for a little while, can't see why it hasn't gone yet though.

The Mclaren is long gone - it was federalized in Houston and I believe its already with its new owner. It used to belong to Ron Dennis before heading to Japan.......

Gorgeous.
One of my all time favourite Ferraris.
That N registration on reflective plates makes it look like a fibreglass replica though!

Symbolic Motors always have amazing cars, if your ever in California it is worth a look in, my brother was there recently and they let him wander around the showroom and even gave him a very fancy looking stock list, so they are nice people there (he is only 14!)
