    just checked: Only admisison on the basis of a booking on Sunday for 175 Euro per person...... A bit ironic to say that everybody is welcome...

    That is not the way I read the leaflet, but if you say so.... I am sure the car will be presented on other occasions, and hopefully it will not turn into a trailer queen...

    Last year I saw a part of a huge collection of about 200 cars. Unkown in to the most in The Netherlands. (incl old alfa's, ferrari's etc)
    And it was not even 30 miles from where I live..........:)
    The owner had the Ferrari 365GT4+4 or 400 (do not know which or s/n) but is was green and had the Panda bear (WWF)logos in the leather dash imprinted! Great car!
    Anyone pics?

    An uncle of mine had this after the Prince changed it for a 412. He bought it at van Vliet trucks at that time, even the AA13 plates were still with the car.

    It was the first Ferrari is was in; I was only about nine years old but remember very well we were doing 230 km/h at the dutch motorway. My love for Ferrari must have started here!!

    the 456 was shown at the RAI early last year. I think it was for sale, or just sold...
    My first encounter with a royal Ferrari was in the mid of the sixties, when I was cycling along the road Arnhem-Apeldoorn and a green Ferrari (the Superfast?) with PB at the wheel and the queen next to him, joined the road , coming from Loenen, at that time the domicile of the Prince's mother Prinses Armgard.

    Thank you for the list Ad!

    It's

    You can ad s/n 11699, a 365 GTC,
    s/n 17129, a 365 GT4 2+2,
    s/n 9119, a 330 GT 2+2 SII,
    and we even have somebody here in Holland who claims he took delivery of the dark green 575M Maranello wich was ordered by the Prince before he passed away. Could be, you never know with this Prince.

    (*) is 0139 E ??

    This means: The 250 GT Europa s/n 0387 GT was renumbered to 0139 E

    Best regards,
    Marcel

    Dear Will,
    So it turns out to be 0269 EU renumbered as 0387 GT.
    the ultimate proof for this would be finding the pf bodynumber 10929.
    Your 0279 EU should have pf#10932. These numbers are usually stamped on many bodyparts, do you perhaps know where these numbers are located on your car? Is there one on the inside of the fuel-fillercap for example?
    Best regards,
    Marcel
