    it should not matter how much the car cost.. its the quality of the job done that counts...afterall at the end of the day its just a glass fibre bodied car with a bonded alloy chassis. theres 2 of these things driving round my home city on a daily basis...

    I was overtaken by an Enzo, when I got home I checked the very short private plate on the tax checker.
    Untaxed.
    Rich people don't have time to do little things like tax.

    If the car was bought from DK Engineering why was it in Lowestoft? A friend of mine from lowestoft told me he was familiar with the car and where the owner lived, so I think it was just sold privately. I still don’t get why someone from Miami would fly over and drive it about to get detailed rather than just getting it professionally transported straight over to the US

      It was bought from DK and the client made the purchase of the car a UK getaway for some country/coastal driving. It then got professional transported back to Miami 2 days after we completed our work. 👍🏼

    Why didn't you fully detail it in a Portable Protective Enviroment instead of outside in the Down Pour. Had u had such a easy available Product , could have easily left it in there till a Transport Company arrived, right up to the portable Unit ,presumebly with a Covered with a Covered Trailer or Truck.
    I'm guessing it wasn't Ceramic Coated inside & out

      You know why people have insurance? its to pay for things that have happened that they can't normally pay up front, pretty sure the person that bought an F40 could pay for any accident that they might have been involved in

      You do know most insurance indemnity is less than the value of that car ie he doesn’t need insurance. If you have a high enough net worth you can by pass standard insurance policies and self insure with a £500k bond… ie banks police etc self insure…

      Not in the UK you can't, the law is not flexible on that. Also it's not about the value of the car it's any harm you may do to a third party and most motor policies have multi million pound indemnities.
