    Used to own a TV production company, then sold it for 200 mill i believe. Then he had something to do with Bransons Virgin media, then sold his shares. Or something like that of the top of my head.
    Now he has a radio slot at prime time. His first question to anyone ringing in is "what do you drive":D
    Heres a link to an all about him http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Evans_(presenter)

    They made an F40 in white? Is that the original paint?

    What color combos came with the F40?

    Paint's not original, as with all his cars that are White they've been repainted

    i spoke to him last November not long after he'd bought the California, he confirmed it was being repainted, but in the Same Black it came in :)


    He's a total petrolhead and is happy to talk to anybody about his cars, cars in general for hours :)

    Mark,

    I saw him on Top Gear and he sounded like one of us for sure. He gave that impression of being very approachable. It's great he is sharing his cars with his fans and also driving that California.Probably more than it was driven in the past 20 years !

    there is NO factory white 288GTO. Chris Evans car belonged to a friend of mine in austria and was red as all 288GTO were. (except a yellow prototype).

    It is my understanding that Ferrari only sold the 288 GTO in one color... Factory, RED. The customer was not given any option colors, period.

    The vintage Ferraris look very elegant in white. The F40 looks like a kit car.

    That white 275 is the bee's knees. I thought this guy was a bit looney when he paid as much as he did for the cali, now I know he is :D Bless his car loving heart!
