And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Probably wouldn't start when the time came to evacuate.
I knew a guy from HS whose family owns some jewelry stores and they were long-time legacy Ferrari owners. When the Enzo came out, he was allowed to buy one. He allowed one of the big car magazines to do a test drive when they couldn’t get one from the company. He’s a really nice guy. Later, I heard that he had it converted into (without Ferrari approval) a Spider model and sometime even later it was damaged in a crash and then repaired. I felt bad for the guy, but AFAIK, he still has the car and I’m sure enjoys driving it. I don’t know if he is still on the short list for new model Ferraris, but I’m sure that’s ok.
These blokes in the ME have so much money that Maranello can’t ignore them, even when they do stupid human tricks.
Middle East burying their cars, planes, nukes, gold, bombs.
ReplyDeleteGood Gravy!! That's a multi million dollar price tag Ferrari "Enzo". Pretty much an F1 car with bodywork. Someone really buried one?
ReplyDeleteI'd re-bury it for future archaeologists, tbh.
ReplyDeleteThe trick would be what to put in it, just to mess with them.
DeleteLove dolls for instance?
Looks like it was washed into a wadi during a freak heavy rain. Trying to recover it.
ReplyDeletegood call
DeleteI'd drive that! What a car.
ReplyDeleteThe way I saw super cars being treated in Saudi would just make you hang your head and cry.
ReplyDeleteThey were abandoning 6 figure cars at the side of the road for a flat tire.
DeleteAny bodies inside?
