Car journo caught doing 231km/h

Police have impounded the rare Ferrari California being driven by Financial Review motoring writer Rod Easdown.

The red Ferrari California is one of just two of its kind in Australia.

A police spokesman said the rare red sports car had been recorded travelling at more than twice the legal limit when spotted by police on Julimar Rd, near Toodyay, just before noon today.

Police have charged the 57-year-old male driver, from Wembley, with reckless driving. The car has been impounded under hoon legislation for seven days.
