If you think that I am kidding in this post, then keep on reading.
As you are well aware, Formula 1 teams introduce new models of racing cars in every new Formula 1 season. So, what does happen with the old cars? Pretty legitimate question.
A company named PF1, with ex-Williams engineer Tim Preston and his team of mechanics on board, maintain and market Formula 1 cars. The target market of the company are wealthy racing enthusiasts. While super rich people could have afforded to own Formula 1 cars before, now this luxury has become available for many others.
Don't be a fool to expect to get a Formula 1 car for a price of an Opel (sorry guys, this is what came to my mind quickly) but for a half price of Enzo you could be owning your own Formula 1 car.
PF1 charges customers £300,000, plus £2500 for membership of Club PF1. This is still very expensive, however the price enables you to run your car at four events per year at places like Donington and Spa. So, in the end the offering is not that bad. Also keep in mind that you become a full owner of the car. So you can re-sell it later if you want so. Now, PF1's offer looks more than impressive and we must agree that Formula 1 has become really affordable for ever... well almost everyone :)

I don’t want to own a formula1 car but I just want to get behind the
Formula1 cars wheel. I participated in a raffle where we can win a formula1 driving course, wish I can win that, Thank you.
You cannot imagine how much I envy you :( I wish I could win such a thing at least once in my life.
