There was no cash equivalent...

I'd say retail it would have been £7k... Maybe £6.5k now the market has slowed down a bit.

F12 Berlinetta! :wub: Surprisingly economical with low service costs too! :thumbup:

The Ferrari F12 Berlinetta lapped the Fiorano Test Curcuit in 1 minute, 23 seconds, meaning its only 3 seconds slower than its hypercar brother, the La Ferrari!

The F12 Berlinetta is powered by a 6.3L V12 engine, an absolute screaming monster.

The 6.3L V12 engine is capable of producing just under 730bhp & around 705nm of torque. Meaning the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta can shift from 0-62mph in as little as 3.1seconds!

We're giving you the chance to own this beautiful example of a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta for as little as 79p! You do not want to miss this!



2013 Model

Only 26k Miles

Full Ferrari Service History

6.3L V12 Engine

7 Speed Dual-Clutch Gearbox

I keep hearing the phone competition on Planet Rock where you get "3 entries for the price of 1" or something like that.

Right, OK, but if you do that for everyone the odds don't change :lol:

I had a crew cab and there's a bit more to it than that, not as simple as you'd expect.

You can buy one ticket, specifically you can have a basket containing one ticket, but you have to put two tickets in the basket and then take one out.

I didn't complete the deal as I'm a tightwad.
