Gumball 3000 photos

Great pics, great cars but what it the N registered silver car after the first ferraris?? Looks nice

 

The new TVR is awesome. I wish we could get them here in the States.

Jack

 

Awesome - thanks for the info

 

What is the white car? i have seen many photos and have heard its awesome but what exactly is it?

Woza.

 

i think thats the Farboud GTS

 

Was the little green Stratos prototype Driving? I didn't think that it was running yet....

 

I think it was just a static exhibit, it definitely came to the start on the back of a truck anyway!

 

Any more pics of it?

 

Close, It's a Farboud GT - the car built to compete with Porsche at LeMans, i.e not GTS the road car.

Believe it had porsche running gear and was so close to the porsche they vito'd it

 

I went down on Saturday afternoon and took some footage.

Is it just me or does the white F430 look the bizz-ness

Great line up of Ferrari's F40, 288GTO, Enzos, F430s, 550s, 360s .......

 

Pitty you can't get that F430F1 number plate in the UK

 

Hey albert..no its not just you, that white 430 does look sweet…it also does not have those silly silver bits on the front air intakes…

Nice selection of cars, 430 is growin on me...

 

Albert,
did the F40 go to? Nice vid, BTW

 

Is that Gallardo badged up as the Italian Police car? Thats funny cos I'm about to have badges made up to turn the Murcie into a Police Car for Le Mans heh heh

 

That Stratos is a shocker - reminds me of that film The Relic - I mean, it just looks like a wild boar, did it break down, or was it there for just show?

 

It was badged GTO on the back, please see video.

But i'm no expert so i bow to your superior knowledge.

No went down in the Dino. Thought it might attract less attention. BIG MISTAKE

 

How disappointing !
