Celebrity Classics?
So we all know which celebs have Enzos or CGTs or SLRs, but who do we know of who has cool classics?
There's Jay Kay with his amazing green Miura. But I found this pic of Mark Knopfler's 275 GTB... it's a cool choice, especially for such an amazing muscician.

I saw Rowan Atkinson's Aston Martin Zagato at Silverstone once. I've got a picture of it, so I'll post it when I find it.
Nick mason also has one hell of a collection. |

Jay-Kay has an awesome collection.
Seinfeld has every 911 ever made.

Seinfeld is dumb for limiting himself to one brand... he's missing out on so much else.
Jay Kay's Miura SV:  He's sold it though apparently. Last edited by Shawn; February 17th, 2007 at 7:05 PM. |

Don't forget Nick Mason...his cars deserve a separate thread, hell he wrote an entire book on them.

The best thing was the ka-ching sound from 'Money' that they used when Jeremy was advertising the book.

Lindsay Fox isn't exactly what you'd call a celebrity but he certainly is rich! He's one of the richest people in Australia, even. But he's not exactly as well known as Jay Kay...
Never the less, he certainly has a fine taste in automobile. He seems to like older cars especially from Ferrari, Porsche and Mercedes-Benz and he was one of the original 399 people asked to buy an Enzo. Ferrari even painted it in his corporate colours as he requested. God knows why coz it looks shithouse. He's kind enough to display his cars for the general public: http://www.foxcollection.org/cars.htm The website isn't very good but you'll get the gist, I'm sure. He seems to be particularly fond of old Mercedes-Benzeses and that's right up my alley! One of these days I'll stop making excuses and I'll drive over there to see that 600. |

His Enzo has a terrible scheme but the rest are nice. I actually read about him on Wikipedia through the list of Enzo owners.
