Salted Exotica

[flat4alfa]

'If I was a rich man

Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum

I'd take my FERRARI 275 GTB out in the salt

It's only worth £400k...'

 

 

This morning, M1 southbound, Hertfordshire.

 

 

Didn't think it was realy worth starting a new thread ...but couldn't find a relevant thread

 

So. Any salted exotica spotted on your travels? Or maybe just grubby, neglected, shite condition exotica, with bits missing like the average Megane.

Does not show up on the Doovla database either or any other websites I tried but does show up on Askmid as being insured.

 

Odd. Is it owned by MI5 or something? *

 

 

 

*More likely to me be being a technologically inept pleb

Because it's registered as a 'FERRARI 275 GTB' rather than a Ferrari. Lots of imported stuff is reg'd like this for some reason

It's because (and you might want to sit down for this bit, it's shocking....) the DVLA have ballsed it up.

"Make" is listed as "Ferrari 275GTB" whilst "Model" is unknown. So searching for just Ferrari would bring up a blank on the DVLA site I'd imagine.

Did you all miss the third line of my little song then?

 

Already looked it up, see.

On Sunday I gave a jump start to a posh couple in an Aston on their way to an Owners' Club meet. Does that count? I sort of wished I still had my Pop at that point, not my Anglia, for added funny* lols.

Taking into account recent happenings - the driver must be called 'Elaine'.

Oh, I thought you just knew it was a 275GTB and was wondering why it wasn't on t'computer.

It's not a rebodied Toyota or Pontiac or something?

Good on the bloke. If I had that car, I would do the same.

And has eleventybillion layers of wax and sealant on the perfectly machine polished paintwork, sealant on the wheels, sealant on the plastics and sealant on the glass!

Is this exotic, salty, and shite enough?

And in spring you knock out the windows and banger race the shite.
