Saw an Enzo, a Phantom, a Ferrari 456 and a Hartge x5 coming out of Farnham, all with a sequential private plate on. Loads of money down there.

Wonder what the guys insurance company had to say. Especially if it was the Escort's owner to fault, LOL.

Bad luck though, not to bad as the car is mainly fibreglass and carbon fibre, so could be rebuilt.

The F40 is just the epitome of a motorcar. My favourite car of all time, and always will be.

Word of advice then Scutch, dont ever get in one and be taken for a spin in it, all your dreams will fall apart, just like they did for me, its hot, cramped, smells of fish, and when the Turbos finally kick in you have to stop as you have run out of road.

It was lovely to be able to live a dream, but like many people have said, they never live up to the expectations you have in your mind.

None of which would put me off! If I won the lottery it would be the only supercar i would ever buy

Poor F40!

I saw one up by Castle Combe a few months back, it sounded so good.

 

[Scutch]

No, I agree with what you say Steve. I saw something similar on Top Gear or 5th Gear once (cant recall which). They drove the Lamborghini Countach, and it was so wide it took up both sides of the road. It was cramped, rattly, box like, clunky, awful steering and not as quick as you'd imagine. But it's an icon. I would still love an F40 parked outside my house moreso than any other car

 

[Ian_182]

Modern supercars is where its at now.especially now that audi own lambo,you actually get a reliable car

 

[Clart]

hmmm, i wouldn't say that going on EVO's latest end of term report on the Murcielago

 

[Marky_]

As if the accident wasn't bad enough, he seems to be getting a ticket from the warden.....

[Fletcher]

I followed one along a busy M3 a few months back, what a noise :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

 

[Ollie82.]

Hmmmm....i had an F40 follow me from Guildford towards Horsham last weekend. There can't be that many about. I wonder if it was the same car?

 

[aaronc]

[Ali]

What a sin.

 

[Easty_172]

Saw on of these in the flesh for the first time today... number plate was something like F40 N1G, looked lovely parked up under the guys private 40 Million quid jet. bas***d.

 

[kpowell911]

I love the fact you can see the carbon weave through the paint its so thin

 

[Easty_172]

I love the fact they're just so damn low and agressive looking. That spoiler is the nuts. He had his F430 parked next to it, and i'de have the F40 everytime.

 

[Josh220]

love these, ultimate supercar!

 

[jayxx83]

My fav of all time too. I will own one one day!!!

 

[KI8RKW]
