Just what i think is an amusing observation, but i have scanned the various UK based ferrari forums this week. It seems that maybe ferrari owners are pretending it never happed due to it not being cool to watch Emmerdale biggrin LoL. Funny but when a TVR is shown the TVR guys have no problem in mentioning they saw it.
But i saw ithe Rosso 458 Speciale, and very nice it was to with quite a bit of air time ( but you already know that biggrin )
Looked like it was supplied by JCT100 reg 69 JN, any brave soul one here?
This is only a tounge in cheek observation guy, dont go over the top wink

I saw it and was not impressed. Suggesting it is very easy car to steal and easy to sell on at a profit I did not think was very responsible of the ITV. With already high insurance premiums this sort of thing can only encourage chancer low life's who think it is an easy way to make money and push premiums up higher still. It is not just the stealing of the car it is the damage that can happen with an unsuccessful theft attempt that is worrying. I hope the outcome to this story line is long prison sentences to all those involved to show that this type of crime does not pay!
On another note who would agree to their car to be stuck in a muddy field, have the nuts revved of it and then have people climbing in and out with muddy wellingtons on. A car to avoid in the future!

At last some one else brave enough to admit to the shame of watching emmerdale biggrin
Reading your last note, it's clear you have never camped out at Lemans. Hundreds of supercars stuck in a muddy field having the nuts revved of them to try and escape the mud pits, not to mention all the muddy carpets wink And still they sell ok biggrin

Martis & Lynch - aren't you being just a little bit precious - leaving aside whether or not the mud can be cleaned off even if it is not wet - at what point does any use of a car become unacceptable - maybe your definition is at any stage in its life half the revs used by the factory prior to delivery constitutes over-use ?

Tell you what if any of your cars ever lose the air in the tyres which came at the time of delivery they would probably become worthless so please consider then giving them to me

I saw the trailer rather than the actual episode (honest!) and thought about the muddy field too.....but then thought that if a TV company wanted to pay me a grand or two for an afternoon taking a few shots of my 355 in a muddy field, assuming it gets a full valet afterwards, then I'd be giving them my number - seems like easy money to me....
