Funny thing is, he's probably sat in the pub right now with his mates, telling them how some knob in a Subaru just tried to race him.

i didnt try to race him, he came flying up and i moved over, then he slowed right down etc , i did push it to make him put his foot down and off he went, amazing sound and speed fair play to him.

Awesome car!
599 is possibly the sweetest of the lot! although the 458 is also up there!

3k deposit and 600 a month for 25 years, sounds like a good deal.

Do you not need a front number plate?

At least you gave it a go
I remember reading a thread a while ago on ctr owners about a guy with a turbo'd civic racing an nsx and it turned out to be Jensen button.

That wouldn't be too bad, more likely to be £2000 + a month for 25 years with only 3k deposit though

Wiki says the requirement for a front plate was 'dropped in 1975'. But i'm guessing if the car was originally fitted with one then you have to display it otherwise not.

You would have thought so. But it's ok cos it's a flash car owned by some rich cunt. Whereas if i was to run a smooth bumper on my corsa with no front plate, or even the plate in the windscreen the police would be all over me.

Definitely not him!
I'd guess at that plate maybe Simon Mat(insert rest of surname).

Looks like he might have an MP4-12C too. I know cricketers earn a bit these days but surely not that much!

You sure the front plate dropped in 1975 wasn't in America?
My friends haven't had an issue with no plates on their 599's
Say they will just pay the fine but never got one
