Actually found out the model for richard's porsche, it's a vintage 911. "Richard owns a vintage Porsche 911, two Land Rovers, a motorbike and several kit cars"

Yes i found this odd as well. You would think he could afford a 360. His jobs seems as though it would pay enough.

Yes, I saw he also owned a Landcruiser. Thought the Ferrari and Mercedes was the primary so didn't care to mention it.

Don't know how old this is, at least not very up to date;

"According to http://www.car.driver.co.uk/stars.htm he owns:
Ferrari 355 GTS
Jaguar XJR
Toyota Landcruiser"
