James May said: The burden of ownership that comes with an F40 must be enormous, and enormously expensive, which would then generate an obligation to use it. No one of sound mind would want to drive an F40 very often. But for maybe 10 special days every year, well, why not? I believe this might be possible. We move now to the world of light aviation, where ownership of an aeroplane by a small syndicate is a normal way of doing things. [....] Strangely, though, it doesn’t seem to have caught on with cars. I know there have been supercar clubs but I don’t think they can be that popular because I’ve never met anybody who’s in one. However, a group of four or even 10 like-minded people, preferably who already know each other, could set up a car syndicate quite easily. [...] In fact, when I think of it like this, I’m amazed that anyone owns a supercar outright. People who spend £150,000 on a Ferrari could actually be owning a stake in four or five interesting cars, do just as much driving, and enjoy greater variety. More significantly, the syndicate approach means more people could enjoy the old 911 or old Maserati experience but without lying awake at night worrying that it’s about to ruin their lives.
