    The red plates on the Koenigsegg are provisional plates from Spain. The ones in the Merc seems from the Middle East.

    The SLR is registered in Saudi Arabia. The ' KSA' in the middle of the plate stands for 'Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia'.

    I think the Koenigsegg has temporary Spanish dealer plates.

    Pre 90's Ferraris in Spain are way more rare than any modern exotic, even in Marbella.

    hehehehe


    Spain like Monaco!!!

    That´s great!!!
    But the mayority part of the cars aren´t Spanish, so... :(


    Pues eso, seamos sinceros chicos, esto es un oasis... Esto solo se puede ver en Puerto banús, y el 80% de los coches no son españoles

    Parents live a mile away from PB & have done for 20+ years, back in those days it was a small port not like the sprawling metropolis of today.

    Though great to see some of the old places still remain & it brings back those youthful visits & memories of me dribbling as a child over the motor erotica.....

    Loved the photos especially AJ's prolific photoshooting......

    I always thought red number plates are for diplomats only, either I'm wrong, or it pays more than I thought. Maybe I need to sign up for diplomatic service...

    It used to be the case that if you had an exotic car the barrier to the Port entrance would be raised for you......

    Is this still the case?

    Has anyone seen a Ferrari 599 GTB or Lambo LP640 in Puerto Banus? The owner of the Murcielago with the UK plate 'F4N74SY' is getting an LP640. Anyone seen it around the port?

    Thats not a UK plate, it would not fit the guidelines or character of a UK plate. Possibly FAN 745Y?

    I have witnessed it many years ago, although I was down May of last year & they had the gates open & as it was relatively quiet I saw a few exotic cars being allowed to park.

    Of course I tried it in my hire car, though the Fiat was not quite the right branding....


    Parents live near the bull ring .....so I usually walk down there....enjoying the scenery....
