288 GTO EVO------------------

Those first seven pics from Tuesday are awesome, but who is the tit in the red trousers?

 

never liked the looks on that car. But I am sure the thing flies.

 

288 GTO EVO????? Wow, I never knew this car existed. Thanks for sharing.

Pardon my ignorance but how many of these 288 EVO's are there and what are they currently worth?

I assume this car is one of the 8 or so protoype 288's aside from the 272 "stock" 288's???

Bloddy Fantastic M8 !

I have never seen that car irl ! tell them to come to France for their next tests

 

That car gave me the chills! Very nice!

 

What is that Overtake sticker for?

Is it a joke or is there some technical reason, that the driver can't see what's coming on the right side?

 

So every car has a sticker like that? So it is a regulation to keep the track day safe then?

I mean Silverstone is so wide and has such a variety of turns that a pass on the right would be possible.

 

Understood.

So my next question: Was this sticker necessary in the Evo's case?

 

Well, everyone's gotta have an inlap....

Tony, it would be interesting if you ask Peter if Harry's EVO has ever been used in competition, or merely as a trackday toy.....

 

Awesome pictures!!!

 

Amazing. Thanks for sharing. Anyone knows what's the value of these if they were ever for sale? Tony, how did it perform/handled?

 

Hello all,

Since everybody (or at least almost everybody) is thrilled about this car, I post three pics I have taken at the circuit of Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium) of the 288 GTO Evoluzione.
VIN : 79888
Owner : Jacques Swaters (Ex Ferrari-Importer for Belgium/Luxemburg)
Date of pics : 29/04/2003

Enjoy gentlemen ...

I want that car!!! Certainly my favorite Ferrari, hands down.

 

Blimey, is that one road registered? If so I'd have thought it a little hardcore for the street.....

 

I was wondering the same thing. It's a bit strange kind of registration though, maybe dealer plates from Luxembourg? Eddy?

 

I think the plates of Swaters are from the UK.
I'm not sure, but I guess either Jersey or Guernsey.
I'm saying that because he also owns (or owned) an F50 with a kind of strange plates, I7404 which I also spotted some years ago at Spa-Francorchamps.
From that car I was told she was registered at Guernsey (Canal-Island and
Tax-paradise in the North Sea between France and the UK)
Whether it is street-legal, I don't dare to tell you, I just don't know.
The plates could also be fake ones, but tell me one reason to put a numberplate on the body of a car if it isn't necessary ?
The frontnumberplate of my berlinetta wouldn't also be there if the law wouldn't force me to do so.

Greetz,

Eddy
