World’s Finest Ferraris Heading To UK’s Concours of Elegance


World's Finest Ferraris Heading To UK's Concours of Elegance

Notably more muscular than before, the replacement’s Colombo V12 wowed customers at the time with its sprightly outputs in excess of 220 hp. Not impressive by today’s standards but remarkable at the time. It may just be eclipsed by a legend of 20th-century motorsport, though. Piloted by the late Sir Stirling Moss himself, a 250 GT SWB built by Scuderia Enzo Ferrari Auto Corse (SEFAC) will also be on display.

Thanks to various performance upgrades, the SEFAC-fettled racer could hit 60 mph in five seconds, giving it the muscle to hurtle Moss to many a victory. But the real showstopper comes in the form of a little-known Prancing Horse. Lovingly known as ‘Tre Posti’ is the outrageous Pininfarina-styled 365 P. With a unique three-seater cabin (much like a McLaren F1), it’s just one of two ever built, making it one of the rarest and most outlandish Ferraris ever .

These Italian icons will gather to celebrate the marque’s 75th anniversary. It’s amazing to think about the innovation and history that has been stuffed into those seven-and-a-half decades. Now, as Ferrari reads its first SUV and electric vehicle, we appreciate these classics even more.
