575 and roll cage

[911Thrasher]

I am looking at several 575 with bucket/race seats...but none have the harness and roll cage

Can these be added subsequently, bolted on or welded?

Does any one know of any HGTC for sale?

Those items can be installed...

One of the five(ish) UK 575HGTC has the roll bar & harness(and a stripe)

But why do you want it - the 360CS (if you still have it) will be far better on track

I don't have the Stradale anymore, it was sold and my 964RS was stolen a couple months ago fron Central London, so looking for a replacement.

Both Stradale and RS were too loud for most UK tracks...and I saw once a wonderful HGTC 575 at Spa Francorchamps, which was lapping really well...furthermore it is a wonderful GT, so perfect for my need.

Altho Lovett have (still) one of the UK HGTC you might be almost as well off getting a good LHD with buckets and then adding harness plus the HGTC kit (used to be very approx £ 25000) which has a loud exhaust too - or standard seats and add a pair of similar seats from Sparco or whoever

I own the one with the stripe. It has the leather trimmed roll cage, a host of other extras too. Listed at nearly £203k when it was new. Hurt someone

Carrs have a HGTC in red. Around £114k

Yes they do...but without race seats, harness or roll cage.

I worked at Lancaster Ferrari and ordered that 575!!!
At first Ferrari SPA wouldn't let us order a 575 with a stripe but eventually they did but at around £7,000 for the privilege.
I have got photo's of said car when it was brand new in the showroom.
Great car!!

I can't thank you enough. Great job. Must be the most highly specified 575 in the world. You must have ticked every single box? One of the last registered too on a 55 plate

I love it

The mad thing at the time was that we had a client in mind for it but we just ordered it to how we would have wanted one!
I drove it a few times and loved it!!

A great picture. The inspired choice was the Rosso Scuderia. The showroom picture does not do it justice. Had my doubts about the stripe initially and some tried to persuade me to have it removed. Not easy as it is factory applied and lacquered over!

The link features a picture of the car at Silverstone Hope it works, none too good with tech stuff

They were a couple I took - the car looked great.

Great pictures, thanks.

With just six rhd's cars it would be interesting to get pictures of them all, or better still get the six together at next years FOC Annual Concours, Ferrari Racing Days September? anyone interested?
