Spotted one of these today on the A1 i was in the road works and it came past and sounded very nice and very loud

as im a good lad I stuck to 50mph in the road works and he was gone when i got out of the 50limit . he gave me a nod as he went past
It was all the lamps at the front that made it stand out at first and then the rear end looked strange and all it said on the back was GTO,

one of the best looking cars of all time I reckon, only 272 made if I remember correctly. I've seen some real good copies in magazines based on 308's.
but lets not ruin it...Andy saw a pukka one!
Saw a MAgnificent LAmbo Gallardo in orange....parked in ALDI car park!!!

There is a 288 based up here. The owner is a regular on Ferrarichat.com. One of my other haunts. Chances are it would be him. Nice guy but an even nicer car!
