I think one of the most impressive things Tim ever does with his cars, isn't all the miles, or refusing to sell for massive profits, or the crazy colour schemes, it's that he willingly takes them to not only deal with Parisian drivers, but he also willingly takes them around the Arc de Triomphe roundabout!

Tim..This is what you do best….travel reporting and showing us just what it is like to own and drive cars few will ever own. It is totally correct to drive yours..a 2 mile garage ornament is not a car but only a possession. Yours has miles and history which I don’t think will dent its value long term…it might even enhance it! Have a wonderful Christmas and keep driving…I’m looking forward to the Roma Spyder….that is just about the only new one I could aspire to….then the insurers would laugh at the idea! Stay safe…Richard in Bristol.😊

Shmee! I’ve been watching you for years. I drive truck for a living. If I had your luck I’d be out of business!! Wishing you the best of luck in the future.

The Purosangue is a stunning car that has grown on me. Your spec is beautiful (even though I am not a fan of the repetitious blue Ferrari specs) and am glad that you not only got an early one, but are really putting in the miles and enjoying your ownership.

In 2014 I bought a new Ford Ka on PCP. In 20 months and under 10,000 miles I had 3 punctures, the last one just a week before I changed it for a Fiesta - was going to go to the dealers to sign the papers and had to change a flat first :-( The first one was when the car had less than 1000 miles on the clock. Some cars just seem prone to punctures. Tyre technology is rubbish, really. Part of the reason I changed it before the initial 24 month PCP was up was that the punctures were getting me down

Ya kno, you can buy a good kit for £20 and you can do it yourself? It’s pretty straightforward, take a pair of pliers, take out whatever is in it, ream out the hole with the ream tool and make it slightly bigger and rough up the rubber, then use the other tool in the kit to install the plug with some rubber cement on it and then trim the plug. It could keep you on the road and will last til you get back to the UK… Or you pay a tire shop £40-50 to do it and they use a patch by taking the tire off the rim and seal inside. Just a thought

I remember from my first trip to Paris the rule for the Arch de Triumph and the cars entering have the right of way AND no car insurance is valid for an accident there, Is this correct?

I don't have a good feeling about the Ferrari prices. No matter which model, from the 360 to the LaFerrari, they've all gone up. This is a clear sign of a bubble, but I have no idea when it will burst. 1 million for an SUV is just too much, especially because the predecessors FF and GTC4Lusso were not really successful, there was no oversticker and Shmee bought them used instead of new. I trust Manny Khoshbin. He canceled his SF90 allocation because they wanted to sell him numerous other cars like the Purosangue. He doesn't currently have a Ferrari in his collection, even though his son is called Enzo. I know other collections who have every car from Porsche to Pagani except Ferrari. I had the same feeling at Ferrari Munich. Unbelievably unsympathetic. I wanted to find out about the 296 GTB, which I can't afford at the moment, but maybe in 1-2 years. Then I decided I'd rather burn the money than give it to these morons and ordered an M3 xDrive on the same day and have had a lot of fun ever since. Next goal Lamborghini.

Imma have to disagree with you Tim but ITS AN SUV NOT A GT CAR

There is not much what did me scare, but the the roundabout at arc de triomphe certainly falls under this.

I absolutely love the color of that Purosangue!
