A FERRARI was clocked going at speeds of up to 124mph on the A55 in Gwynedd.
Officers from North Wales Police's Roads Policing Unit were stunned to find that - as well as flying along at those speeds near Bangor - the car also had no front number plate and a defective brake light.
A ticket was issued once the police had brought the Ferrari F40 to a halt.

A spokesperson for the Roads Policing Unit said: "We know it was the F1 British Grand Prix last weekend but the A55 isn't a racetrack.
"This (beautiful) Ferrari F40 was stopped near Bangor earlier after clocking up speeds of up to 124mph. Yes, you read that right, 124mph.
"Car stopped. Ticket issued, and likelihood is the driver will go to court and get disqualified from driving.
"Car also had no front number plate and had a defective brake light. It doesn't matter what you drive, you must ensure your vehicle is in full working order."
