    I saw this garage as I was going to WireWheel (british car shop) to get pictures of some of the cars there (for my archives). I passed by this a few min before. The owner of the shop told its a private garage, but I wonder who owns it?

    This car (P4 spyder? i'm not good with classic ferrari lemans car names) is a replica, according to the british car shop owner

    I also saw a 360 Challenge Stradale (far left garage).

    I just bought a little Ginetta at Wirewheel the day before Thanksgiving. Remember it was cold then. The owner said the special of the day was a free lizard with every car purchase (to get the lizard to a little warmer climate). He needed to get rid of a cuban Anole (about 18" long overall) that had hitch hiked a ride to vero on the new 6 wheel Range Rover they had just received from Homestead. Anyway my kid's teacher has a few lizards so we took it to give to her. When we got home my daughter said "Where is the lizard?" I told her it was in the cage. She said it was not. It had gotten out and was on the seatbelt. Good thing that lizard did not decide to go up front or my wife would have wrecked for sure.

    was it a silver Ginetta? I saw the white one with red stripes... interesting cars, but not fond of the 3rd gen mazda miata headlights... or is it 2nd gen?

    PS- would it be this Range Rover? heard it was sold and going to belgium... not everyday you see something like this, especially with proportional lines, something that maybe range rover themselves would have tried :)

    Yeah, I bought the silver one. The white / red one looked good in the phots and drove well also, but was more 'used'. The headlights aren't so great (they are from a European ford I think, but look very similar to the 2nd gen Mazda lights), but the car is a total blast to drive. Once the engine performance is brought up it should be really quick. And yes, that is the RR the lizard hitch hiked up on. If you like the 6 wheel RR I know of another interesting 6 wheeled vehicle available. Definitely one of a kind.

    This 6 wheel Stimson Mini was sold by wirewheel, and the new buyer has decided he does not want it. I might buy it, but thought you might like it. Apparently it needs much engine / trans work.
    :D
