    I thought I was putting on the miles on my 550. It is at almost 43,000 miles.

    Nope, a guy has a 575 with 44,000 on it. I said, “Wow”. Then I learned he also had a 360 with 58,000 miles on it. The man has a long commute and he only drives fun things. Now he is someone who knows what one must do.

    There is a guy on Ferrarilist who had a 328 he put over 100K on and now has a 512TR that he drives ALL the time. He is an old Viet Nam era jet pilot, so he has a little bit of an attitude but boy does he love to drive his Ferrari. I believe his name is Clyde Romero.

    Next year North London will improve when our resident property magnate will pick up his Enzo. I spoke to the dealer and he is cashing in his 360 spider because he intends to drive to and from work in the Enzo everyday!!

    If I get piccies I will post.

    My dad keeps saying that hell put a 1000000 (thats right, its a million) miles on a McLaren F1.
    The only catch is that he dosent own one, yet.
    as for the guy with 100k on a 328, Enzo would be proud!
