Tues, 7 May. 9.30pm After a flight out of Heathrow and a bewildering detour on a bus, we finally arrive in Maranello for a late dinner at the Museo Ferrari. There's bags of interesting stuff here, but the 288 GTO-based GTO Evoluzione [left] catches my eye - it never raced, but fed into the F40 project – as does the F40 Competizione, ...

The world premieres of the LaFerrari and McLaren P1 were special, rare moments: it’s a decade since Ferrari unveiled the Enzo, and twice that since McLaren stunned the world with the F1. Yet the planets all aligned at the 2013 Geneva motor show, where production versions of both supercar heavyweights’ latest flagships were shown, ten minutes and a few hundred ...

It's been some time since we've seen traffic like this on one of the UK's best known racetracks. All of the necessary evidence has now been submitted to confirm the 964-strong meeting of Ferraris at Silverstone to be a Guinness world record. Felipe Massa led the parade at the wheel of a 458 Spider, while the 964 cars shattered the ...

Enzo Ferrari is a big man. Big, fleshy nose. Big, loose mouth. Big, solid body. The next thing that you notice about him is that he bears about as much resemblance to most car makers and the rest of motor racing’s constructors as an ageing lion to a day-long mayfly. And then, quick upon that, there’s the realisation that he’s ...

They gather on a gorgeous spring day, the sky a deep Bugatti blue, to pay homage to the 60th anniversary of the greatest sports car maker in the world. Nine cars, six of which represent the best of the breed, the others a trio of tempting real-world propositions. Appropriately all but two of the Ferraris are blood red – that ...
o In the new April 2012 issue of CAR Magazine, Chris Chilton spent a couple of days with Group B rally hero Markku Alen in Arjeplog, northern Sweden, blatting around icy roads in a Ferrari FF super-coupe. In temperatures plummeting to –12deg C, Chilton and Alen spent their time mostly sideways as they drove the first four-wheel drive Ferrari at ...

The Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari opened on 10 March 2012, dedicated to Enzo Ferrari - the powerhouse behind the eponymous supercar maker. The new museum includes plenty of other sports car brands with links to the ...

Ferrari recently passed a quiet milestone that's bound to upset traditionalists: Maranello no longer offers Brits the choice of a manual transmission in its supercars. Those wonderful, exposed metal gates with polished gearsticks click-clacking from cog to cog are no more. And that makes us a little bit sad. Whatever happened to the Ferrari manual? With the arrival of the ...
CAR drove the new Ferrari FF this week - but there was a small commotion behind the scenes when we accidentally drove it into a kerb, stoving in both alloys on one side of the car. An expensive business on a Ferrari. Check out our video above of the moment when road tester Jethro Bovingdon smacked the new £230,000 FF ...

The CAR office doesn’t pore over the pictures of every new vehicle that is sent to us, but when it’s a brand new Ferrari – and a Ferrari that’s rumoured to be an estate – people jump from their desks and jostle for the best position around the requisite computer. Having looked at the pictures with the rest of the ...
