OLD IS GOLD! Driving a £1 MILLION Ferrari 250 Pininfarina

  • The LaFerrari Aperta leads the way to start off Ferrari's 70th anniversary celebrations! To mark the occasion the first convoy with Meridien Modena takes more than 70 Ferrari owners on a drive from the Goodwood Motor Circuit to Portsmouth and for the journey I'm handed the keys to a Ferrari 250 GT Pininfarina from 1959, worth nearly £1 million.
    On my channel you'll more normally see the more modern supercars but this is a truly special opportunity to drive a classic car that plays a big role in Ferrari's history and particularly the relationship with Pininfarina. The various models of Ferrari 250 such as the 250 GTO, 250 SWB and 250 California have huge provenance but it's an interesting to comparison to look at the 250 GT Pininfarina (or 250 PF for short) as the equivalent to an 812superfast of its day. Luxurious, comfortable, fast, with a 3l Colombo V12, 4 speed manual with overdrive, and some cosmetic upgrades found on other models.
    Surrounded by other models including: F40, F50, F12tdf, Speciale and everything from the current line-up, taking part with the 250 PF made the event truly memorable.
    A huge thanks to Meridien Modena for the hospitality and opportunity to jump behind the wheel of such a car, and of course to Ferrari for this being possible!
    Thanks for watching, Tim

      I have a CMC Model of a 1961 Ferrari 250 gt Lm. It lots of ways what your driving is cooler than a La Ferrari Alperta.

      I noticed you pressing the brake and clutch as you started her. I'm guessing that's a muscle memory reflex from starting the modern cars.

    Absolutely beautiful. I would take it over that LaFerrari every day. Just pure art. Just imagine that 250, a pretty girl next to you, driving along casually down the coast of Italy. Ahhhh.

  • @PullerzCoD

    £1M for a car of which there are only 8 examples in that spec is surely a bargain??

    • @oxygengraphafonadelaverberator
      @oxygengraphafonadelaverberator 7 років тому +2

      I thought an old Ferrari like this could be worth around £10m with the amount of examples as you said. A Ferrari GTO can go for £10m+ and they made many more of them for racing.

    • @maximehajji2677
      @maximehajji2677 7 років тому +1

    The lines of that car.. The sound.. The everything.. This type of Ferrari, the 250 GTs, 330 GTs.. Right up my alley. ..but man i wouldn't have the balls to drive a car that expensive on the road, but it must have been an amazing experience.

    • @rare6499
      @rare6499 7 років тому +4

      Sniparator | Big Boss absolutely. Modern cars are almost too fast. The 50's and 60's Ferrari's were pure art. You don't have to drive fast in one. They just exude pure class.

    This was one of your best videos, Tim! Absolutely beautiful Ferrari from another age. I loved the video where you drove the Miura, too. I know your channel is focused mainly on modern supercars but I am sure many of us would enjoy more videos with classics. Looking forward for a video driving some other classic maybe a 300SL

    @Vampirebear13 7 років тому +7

    It is so GREAT to see you in a CLASSIC car. They're so MUCH more interesting than new cars. There's a dark green 1989 Ferrari 412 in the UK at Daniel Donovan Classics which would make a super interesting video, as would seeing you drive classics like a MGA and MGB. I learned to drive in a 1971 MGB when my brother came home from Viet Nam, then later in a 1967 Jaguar E-Type convertible. Thumbs up from the states Tim !!!

  • @ianmedium
    @ianmedium 7 років тому

    I so wish they would bring back cars like this, pure driving experience and being smaller so much more practical on modern roads. I really hope you do more vintage cars Tim.
    Oh and to my ears this sounds so much better than the high revving buzzy super cars made now.

  • @zk9058
    @zk9058 7 років тому

    I once drove a 1960 250GT series II cabriolet and it was epic. Steering was heavy and dull at low speeds (thank god someone invented power steering), the clutch pedal required 50 lbs of pressure to depress, and the brakes were non-existent. But the sound......oh that sound......it was symphonic. The raw emotion of a 60s era Ferrari is like nothing else. It's a dream. Enjoy the ride shmee....it's once in a lifetime.
