Former owner Guy Mahy of Belgium has identified the car in above photograph as being Chassis no. MF3169. — March 09, 2009

 
 
1992 - 2003
 

Chassis no. MF3169 was owned by Guy Mahy of Belgium from 1992 to 2003.

"I am pretty sure the car presented by Dan Marguelies is the car I purshased with his neighbour Gregor Fiskin in 1992. It is a short chassis... and was on the website of Auto art Collection in Nov 2008.

I sold the car with Coys in order to buy a Bugatti that they had for sale. They put the 4.5 in an auction and as far as I understood the car was sold to a German person.

Since then I haven't heard or read anything about a fantastic car that I shouldn't have sold!!!!"
