When I worked for the local VW/Audi dealer we had Nick Masons Golf VR6 in missing half its engine bay wiring missing thanks to mice.

I had a land rover project which mice wrecked ....they got in through a hole in the bulkhead.and ate the new cloth seats.....my father inlaw had mice in the engine bay of his rover 25.........he nearly had to phone for these guys....

This ferrari 458 italia was stolen from a surrey dealership in 2013........the 458 was the only one of its kind in the uk at the time value around £230,000.......the culprit was arrested.

See my thread on mice problems!

2 dutch people died this week by a crash of their ferrari in germany. At some roads in germany there's no speed limit and in wet conditions and high speeds these men slipped in a bend. Unfortunately the ferrari caught fire.

05/11/2015 and a ferrari owner crashes his new ferrari moments after driving out of the dealership in budapest-hungary.............his ferrari cost 1 million pounds....it all seemed to be going well until he lost traction of his 950 horsepower 499 la ferraris......0-62 in 3 seconds....












And on the polish highway it was reported by a eyewitness and the driver of a ferrari ff coupe that a fire started from the inside of the $430,000 supercar..the fire came from the area of the control pedals.....the fire started in a different manner than the ff in germany and another in china

STOLEN FERRARI FOUND IN BACK YARD IN LOS ANGELES
feb 7th 1978............kids playing in a back yard on 119th street discoverd the roof of a car....after it was reported to police...2 detectives aided by a digger and some volunteers with shovels uncoverd a 1974 green ferrari 264 GTS dino.. worth $18000 new...........The car had been purchased new by rosendo cruz of alhambra and reported stolen 2 months later......cruz was paid out by insurers.........the homeowner and tennants knew nothing about the car.......observe the towels around the windows....there were many of these put around the car in a poor attempt to preserve it








it was believed later but not proven that this was a insurance fraud............thieves payed by the owner to destroy the ferrari.......when they drove the car with the intention to destroy it....they liked it so much they wanted to hide it......it was driven into a dried out swimming pool and buried....maybe for future excavation........but the dino badge on the rear of the car was removed....instead of popping the badge off they cut it off leaving a hole in the bodywork highlighted in red below
(maybe has a keepsake)


The ferrari dino was later bought at a insurance auction for around $8000 and restored.........the car now sports a new reg number.................dug up..........restored car below

This one happened where I live. This clown pulled out of a car show, gave it too much welly and spun into a telephone pole.
At least it didn't catch fire! This car was later rebuilt.
Broken F-40

yes i think the owners of these higher powerd cars should go on a drving coarse.......i have found..the subject of ferraris quite interesting,some people have died experiencing the power,some have buried them,some have burnt them..........................and some request to be buried in them.......meet sandra west


sandra was a beverley hill socialite and texas oil heiress.....she owned a 1964 ferrari 330 america in powder blue


what is interesting about her story is she requested to be buried in it.....she would be wearing a lacy night dress and be tilted back at a comfy angle in the seat......the request was given to her brother in law when she died in 1977.......he would be paid $10,000 if he did not carry out the task and $2,000,000 if he did.............he tried to get out of the demand and her body was buried tempory for 2 months before a court orderd him to proceed with the request.....The ferrari was to be in a box....size 6ft x8ftx17 feet.......the hole was dug 9ft deep and once in position to be incased by concrete........this all took place in a cemetry in antonia and is only marked by a simple stone with no telling of the car beneath














sandra west...............R.E.S............rest in style
