That's pretty special! Love the colour too. Imagine taking that out at Goodwood or somewhere knowing that if you crash it, you're the first person ever to do so. No pressure!

Chris Harris of Top Gear was allegedly the instigator causing the driver of this Ferrari to have a little moment 🤠|

Just been watching a Pink Floyd documentary, Nick Mason bought his 250GTO for £35000 in 1978! Not a bad investment.  |

As a comparison probably one of the most famous Aston Martin's is up for auction at Goodwood Festival of Speed,  www.bonhams.com/auctions/24876/preview_lot/5146290/ There is a huge amount of information on the site pretty much a magazine article on the history and provenance, worth a read and lots of pretty pictures. Expected to be the most expensive British car sold, I'd pick this over the Ferrari. Talking about expensive crashes I was at Castle Combe a few years ago when an Aston Martin DR1 got crunched. |

According to the inflation rate comparison I found that's still over 2 million pounds in today's money. Ok that's "cheap" for a GTO but it's the sort of small change you'll only find down the back of a rock star's sofa. EDIT- I'm a massive clot. It's actually only £200 thousand. Sorry. |

The Aston Martin is gorgeous and looks as right in green as the Ferrari looks in red. I had just wandered over to the main parking area that year at Castle Combe and missed the shunt, half an hour earlier and I might have caught it on video. |

Lord Bamford has the original tucked away. He also had one wrecked 3 years? Previous. |
