What you'd expect from News.com "Stuffed with Ferrari's" FFS it's one 'Ferrari' that isn't even one FFS: https://www.realcommercial.com.au/news/mcc-boss-david-jones-secret-2m-ferrari-mancave-up-for-grabs?campaignType=external&campaignChannel=syndication&campaignName=ncacont&campaignContent=&campaignSource=newscomau&campaignPlacement=realestatemodule
Did you see the dismantled Veyron in my photos from the London Concours? Was interesting to see under the skin of one. This one had had some use. Only seen two every actually on the road here, all the rest at shows!
Had another outing yesterday to CKL Developments in deepest Sussex. Build competition Jaguars mainly. 2 D Types, 1 C Type and 2 XK-SSs there as well as plenty of E-Types and XKs. They get a reliable 360/370 hp out of a 3.8 XK engine now with a lot of clever tricks. Can get close to 400hp, but become more difficult to drive as they have less torque than the lower hp motors. Interesting day out...
London Concours,love the Ruddspeed Ace and the Aceca...and a couple of others: https://velocetoday.com/london-concours-june-3-5-2025/
Wildly overpriced and colour changed from red to black! About $1M more than I'd be willing to pay... 1986 Lamborghini Countach 5000 quattrovalvole Manual
Had a quick run up to Stanthorpe and back this morning. Going up, followed a maroon Porsche 944 into Ballandean - haven't seen one of those on the road forever. Coming back through Ballandean there was a 90's Continental R followed by a 60's Mini Cooper. Always lots of interesting stuff in that area - Friday it was A9X and L34 Toranas, last weekend it was around 20 Model T's.
I've got man flu, I was going to the chemist. And where he pulled on at the Geoffrey Rush house there isn't much opportunity to Ballandean.
You too eh,I started feeling a little secondhand yesterday morning on the jet returning me from Moretti's funeral. Now getting very ordinary and I've work at 7.30 tomorrow. One of those dirty rotten southerners infected me.....probably Wes as he owes me one.
I feel like I have been hit by a truck. Was supposed to be going out for dinner last night with friends passing through - my wife had a great time while I snuggled up with a medicinal bottle of Bundy..
Thankfully I haven’t got it from you, though I did have a Covid shot Thursday and flu one two weeks ago. Go the vaccinators!!!!
