(November 11, 2012)  LONDON — Over £30 million of rare and historic Ferraris were on display this weekend at Dick Lovett Swindon for an exclusive “Racing Legends” event for their Ferrari clients. On display were all the icons which represent Ferrari’s incredible heritage and unique position in the supercar market, with significant cars from every decade: Dino, 275 GTS, 275 GTB/4, 365 GTB4, 288 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo.

Complementing this remarkable display of iconic supercars was the new F12berlinetta, Ferrari’s latest front-engined flagship performance V12, which has just won the Coupés/Cabrios category in the prestigious 2012 Goldenes Lenkrad (Golden Steering Wheel) awards organized by German car magazine Auto Bild in conjunction with the Bild am Sonntag newspaper. The F12berlinetta has also won EVO’s “Engine of the Year 2012.”



In addition to the range of iconic supercars at Dick Lovett Swindon, there were also a number of rare and historic racing Ferrari cars on display: a 750 Monza, the only 4-cylinder car ever made by Ferrari, and a factory entry in the 1955 Le Mans 24-hour; a 250 LM which won the Daily Express Trophy Race at Silverstone and has an extensive racing history; a 330 P4, a sports prototype which famously finished 1-2-3 at the Daytona 24hr in 1967; an unique 365P which was produced specifically for non-works privateer race teams; and a 356 P2 which is one of only four such cars, with this specific example having raced at Le Mans, Brands Hatch and Reims in the 1960s.

On hand to recount their memories of racing these important sports-prototype Ferraris were Richard Attwood and David Piper, both of whom raced and won with these cars in period and in subsequent historic racing events such as the Goodwood Revival and the Silverstone Classic.

Motor Sport’s Associate Editor, Ed Foster, hosted an exclusive and entertaining Q&A with Attwood and Piper, which is available as a podcast for download from the Motor Sport website.
