    Well, I don't know ... people say that this unit was from the Belgian royal family, the car has a plate from some royal family on the passenger side but there is no clear photo

    @Marcel Massini Can you tell us something?

    I wouldn't say so, but just a guess. If it is indeed a photoshop, it's a really good one over a classic old photo.

    Zoom in the picture and the numbers-letters are clearer. 53180N or 63180N. Now look for period-correct plates from different countries... Wild guess: Denmark, Norway?

    All this search is to know part of the history of #84455 that belonged to a royal family, the F40 has a gold plate, but in the photos I have, it is not possible to read which royal family it belonged to.

    Van Rossem had a relationship with the Belgian royal family, so I suspect that it may have something to do with that unit

    Van Rossem did NOT have 84455.
    He had 79482 with plates DKP 445.

    well, we are close ....

    Now, # 84455 do you know something that can be commented? (Why is there so much mystery with this unit?)o_O

    I just want to know its origin and I will keep the information private, I am writing the story of Ferrari in the Canary Islands and that car has been in the islands since 1994. (I accept a private answer)
