There are a lot of supercar scrapyards in Dubai, full of abandoned Ferrari models that look as good as new.
This is where luxury cars that have been abandoned or damaged in an accident come to ‘rest’.
Supercar Blondie’s, Alex Hirschi, visited one of these scrapyards and found a lot of cool cars, including a (badly) damaged G-Wagen and a few Ferraris.
One of these Ferraris, a good-as-new Ferrari 612 Scaglietti with Tiffany Blue-style exterior, was hiding a AED500 bill, around $136 at today’s rate, in the passenger’s sun visor.
When Alex popped it up, a AED500 dropped on the seat and the irony is that here, in this scrapyard, that may very well be enough to buy a car.
