Very nice!! Glad to see the owner is not an ass 8)

Luckily some pics popped up LOL :D his comment "I don't know how to post pics, I'm to old and don't want to learn.. anyway all the F1 look the same" was kinda dumb... of course everybody knows how most cars look, but why then there are milions of pics around and most of us love to see and store the best ones? :roll:
Luckily the ppl there are less aggressive (compared to us :D) in their "pics or STFU" behaviour :D

I had a quick look for the pictures...(inc in his profile) but without any luck...can anyone point me in the right direction to see them ?

Jabba 08-05-2004 08:31 AM

Thanks dude....dont know why....I thought it was going to be an actual Formula One car...like the Frank Mountain guy that bought the Ferrari F1 car.

Chingachgook 08-05-2004 09:10 AM

Thanks!!

I read the whole topic and the guy is the most down to earth supercar owner ever... except our very own Jabba, of course :P

The guy has extensive knowledge on the car, and his opinions are very worthwile reading. He gives great insight and has a mountain of technical knowledge that surpasses expectations. He knows his stuff 8)

If only he posted a bit more regularly, but he is doing a favour, and is not obliged to offer this information :D

His taste leaves a lot to be desired, but he has shunned flashiness and the high-downforce LM option in favour of purity.. a great read :D

PetrolTed actually met the guy personally before he started posting to verify he owned the car, as pistonheads was spoofed a couple of years back with a guy who claimed F1 ownership.. :roll:

That was a cool post. Flemke is a hero is my book....

I glanced over the thread.

One question I didn't see answered (maybe it was, but I didn't find it) - It sounds like he lives and drives in Germany - yet the car has Brit plates... *shrug*

No.. look at his profile.. he lives in the UK, but makes trips to the continet as many supercar owners do 8)

He also met up with that "Ted" guy in a Pub in London :wink:
