No-one likes to see a ticket being given but this guy was a right show-off revving his engine through the quiet village.
The locals seemed secretly pleased :lol:

I do - if I was the person he had just ticketed I'd want that deleted! Nobody likes a sm*rtarse! :lol:

Fair point - a red 458 is never going to go unnoticed. So you don't need to draw attention to yourself by revving the nuts off it in a village!

I'd go looking for a quiet road for some fun, but so many owners are a bit too "look at me" innit!

Even so I wouldn't be happy about the ticket issuer snapping selfies, but maybe that's what happens when 2 tw*ts meet! :lol:

Pretty sure the Ferrari driver won't be bothered about a parking ticket :lol:

If I was the driver, I'd come back and show it off to the peasants who've gathered to witness my richness :lol:
