    I drove our 86640 @ 3,000 miles one summer as an almost-everyday commuter car, I found all aspects of driving it quite easy.

    It has an incorrect F40 document holder, should be a Schedoni leather document holder with F40 embossed on it - what they have is a later leather document wallet. See attached photo, ignore Euro books, but the wallet should have F40 on it as pictured. Not a big problem, about $2500 - $3000 to replace with correct one.
    Unless they only took a few tools out of the bag there is a fair bit missing from the tool kit, including the separate tyre inflator kit - what is pictured is all correct and original to the F40, but see attached photo of a complete set. The one in the advert is missing, large wheel nut, tyre pressure gauge, spare wheel pins, spare spark plugs, and spare belts - again no big problem about $1500 for an original tyre kit and $1000 for the other bits that are missing.

    Love this stuff. I find the ancillaries fascinating.

    I think its time I started a tread detailing the tool kits for the Halo cars, I am tired of inspecting cars with the wrong tool kits, replacement parts and things missing.
    I will start to get all the info and photos together.
    I have all the tool kits for the 288GTO, F40, F50 and Enzo in my store room. I also have access to all the toolkits in The Bloodline Collection, so we have plenty of resources, that are 100% correct.

    I think you definitely should. It would be very helpful to the community. I did something very similar for the Lamborghini Countach:

    I also started this thread, which you’ve contributed greatly too.

    Still, I think a dedicated thread for the Supercars would be much appreciated. There’s a lot of suspect opinions about tools and accessories.

    there is a lot more to it now, as a few years have passed since the article and video, the original collection is still all together, they just have a bit more company down at the garage.

    Thank you to all who weighed in on the seat material, we have found a supply of the fabled red Nomex fabric.

    A USA F40 was delivered new to baseball Hall of Fame star Ken Griffey Jr who then sold it to fellow baseball star Reggie Jackson.
