An Exotic Warehouse in London
 
Hi, I know i've not been around here for a while now, but Maou asked me to post the photos from my trip to RossoCorsa cars, as a couple of weekends ago at the Autoitalia Italian car day I made friends with this guy who works there, and he invited me up, so I took the afternoon off from the dealership I work at, and went to visit one with a little more value under the 1 roof!

The whole warehouse was packed with Italian Exotics, Ferrari's Lamborghini's and Maserati's.... and 1 german SL500 (trade in) I've tried to list the cars as best possible, but i'm no expert on Ferraris, so some may remain blank. I'm also not a Ferrari fan, but the sight of all the cars so close together and when you walked in, you could just feel the power in the atmosphere, an awesome experience, and I hope, some of you may enjoy the photos, which have had a lot of editing as the warehouse was very dark :(

Wow, That really is an incredible collection.

Thanks for sharing!

gucom 10-16-2005 04:33 PM

WOW nice warehouse, id have any of those cars although im not a HUGE ferrari fan either...still great 8)

TT 10-16-2005 04:36 PM

Pretty nice collection! Too bad it was so damn cramped and dark! It's a 328 BTW at the top ;)

My fav one is the green 3200GT! Never seen in such color! :good:

No.1 10-16-2005 05:53 PM

Nice pics.

Some nice Jalpa's and the Diablo 6.0 is an absolute beast.

Shame it was so cramped, and that there wern't too many newer cars (i'm not a massive fan of older ferraris, with a few exceptions of course)

The Murcielago Roadster has to be my fave though.... saw my first at Lambo Manchester a while ago, and all i can say is it looks better topless :twisted: Although the 100mph rag top is supposed to be a beast to fit, so it can't be that suitable for the UK :?

Yablokov 10-16-2005 06:00 PM

great cars, although im more of a fan of down to earth cars:P

cars that i know ill most likely never be able to buy arnt very eye-catching to me.

adamwich 10-16-2005 06:05 PM

The Ferrari 348/355/328 and Maser 3200GT are getting cheaper now.

A 3200GT (2000 model) can be had for £25k here.... that's the same price as a Merc E200 w/ a few options.... sure mainteneace will be higher... or were you talking about used audi/merc, because a Porsche still requires a degree of looking after

TransAm 10-16-2005 06:32 PM

Great pics! The angled shots are nice too - did sir have a few beverages at lunchtime? :lol:

dingo 10-16-2005 07:08 PM

Nice collection, shame about where they keep them though. :(

Anyway nice pics you took, thanks for the effort. :D

BTW, both of those 348??? are indeed 348's.
