Yup, its a ferrari 456 ESTATE!!!!
Dude I saw that car on the way to work (A40) not 3 days ago! I was pretty surprised by it as well!

I knew they did some estates but just had never seen one, VERY rare.

This morning brought another RARE surprise as well, was it the Lamborghini Gallardo? Or the Zonda F Convertible? No, it was the Mercedes CL Convertible!! Now as far as I am aware Mercedes has NEVER made a convertible CL. That must have taken some doing.

Looked stunning though, very well done.

Nope, Ferrari always denied making them.

Benji... did you see who was in the back? or were you passing it too fast

I gotta say, the only thing i really like about working in Central london is that in summer its like a car show.

This is the second time this Ferrari has parked opposite where i work. If you look real carfully you can see the shop in the 2nd pic.

I saw what was badges up as an M6 outside here yesterday. Just like the bmw M5 but much much more aggresive, almost scary looking.

but WOW too.

Even if they never get to go over 25 in this area. And that would be on a good day

M5 is the better car, in that it has the same power, same handling, but with five seats and a fair bit cheaper. Yes, I'll take an M5, those keys are mine? Excellent...

My brother used to work for the Sultan of Brunei, and he had several Ferrari estates in his garage - in Yellow I seem to remember.
He also had a couple of Aston Martins that had been converted to estates, one of which had 6 wheels - twin rear axels - I think it was used (once) as a very posh shooting brake

Benji, the CL is a tintop convertable as std, just that seeing them with the roof down is very very rare.

I'll take your M5 and rise it with the new Audi RS6

A ferrari estate...excellent, cant wiat to get home and see the piccys (Damn firwall)
