I was thinking why is something so valuable not covered... considering it has come over from the Netherlands

Could be a replica - no way you'd have a €5m car towed on a trailer like that, surely?

ETA: https://rdw-voertuiginformatie.nl/PM-35-48 Apparently genuine if the reg details are to be believed.

It’s an original. The more expensive model was the series 1 as it was hand built and made to order with 36 made. The series 2 was production built and 200+ made.

Could it be this one sold at the end of last year? The dutch site I found suggests it was registered over there in February, which lines up with a sale in November plus paperwork etc. It also lines up nicely with being registered at the end of June 1958 vs leaving the factory in May.

I wonder if he’s paid a transport company to move it, expecting it to be a little bit more appropriate than an open trailer behind a SUV laugh

Yes it’s that one the Dutch register matches the chassis to the plate. https://ferrariregistry.nl/ferrari/home/stradali-c...

Whenever I see a photo of a 250 PF cabriolet I always think of this guy, who owned one.

What’s particularly interesting is that the 4 dismantled cars live again, somehow.

There was a pair of Ferraris in Monaco that I enjoyed seeing.
