To celebrate 75 years of the Ferrari marque, the Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court Palace will present a collection of rare and historic Modena machinery.
The event promises nearly 1000 display vehicles and more than 70 concours contenders on 2-4 September.
The very first car to bear the name ‘Ferrari’ was the 1947 125S, but it was the 166 and 195 ‘Inter’ models that represented the first proper road cars sold to the public – and they will be represented at this concours.
This Ferrari 195 Inter will star at Concours of Elegance – as will a 166
On show will be one of just three Ferrari 195 Inters bodied by Touring, following last year’s 1950s-class winning Farina convertible.
Perhaps even more exciting for enthusiasts of Ferrari’s early years will be the 250GT Europa, one of just 34 that marked not just the beginning of one of the most successful and famous series for the Italian maker but, with civilised Pinin Farina coachwork, was also the brand’s first true GT.
A 1963 Ferrari 250GTO will also be on display, and in a rich, dark blue rather than the typical blazing red.
