Theres a realmedia video somewhere on the net where clarkson (off camera) iterviews him. He actually starts it up, pushes the clutch and puts it in gear. Its an astonishing video.

there was an article also posted in R&T about this, it took him some years to build it and everything is made at a perfect scale, simply amazing

I saw it before but totally forgot about it. Found the video you were talking about. Not sure, but it sounds like Jeremy Clarkson doing the interview:
http://www.fine-art-models.com/e/gal...rri/ferfam.ram
Quote from Pierre Scerri: "When I was young I saw Ferrari in many races. And my dream was to get this sound, this music, at home. I could not buy one... I had to make one."
Mad respect for this man, what a dedication!! 
And if you think that he's had enough of it, he's now working on a 1:3rd scale Ferrari P4 :shock:
