With 49,295 miles under its belt, the rare grand tourer was originally ordered through the U.K.\u2019s Maranello Concessionaires and is the only unit delivered to Britain to be finished in Rosso Sir Ivor, a vibrant red shade named by Pininfarina after a champion thoroughbred racehorse at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The car\u2019s first owner was Charles Ronald Driver, father of Hollywood actress Minnie Driver, and though it was sent to England, the car was specified in left-hand drive as it was intended to be driven in Switzerland. Over the years, it\u2019d make its way through various owners including prolific Ferrari collector and racer Pierre Mellinger as well as Brentford FC\u2019s former chairman Martin Lange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sitting under the bonnet is the 4.4-liter Colombo V12, capable of producing 335 horsepower through a five-speed manual transmission. The engine number also matches the rear axle, and while the gearbox isn\u2019t original, it\u2019s the correct type for the car. Wheels now come in the form of 15-inch Campagnolo magnesium alloy wheels wrapped in Pirelli P4000 tires, with a full-size spare hidden under the boot floor. The interior has been re-trimmed in tan leather upholstery, paired with a dashboard and center console covered in the correct \u201cmousehair\u201d material while the steering wheel comes trimmed in black leather. You\u2019ll also find a retrofitted electric ignition, polished metal gear knob, and retro-styled stereo head unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those interested in owning this rare piece of automotive history, you can head over to Collecting Cars to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/82aa3abc281222ac04ef641f4135a4a1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26390\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:1200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/82aa3abc281222ac04ef641f4135a4a1.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/82aa3abc281222ac04ef641f4135a4a1-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/027d931eddea86f2a66e44f0e445a386.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26391\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:1200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/027d931eddea86f2a66e44f0e445a386.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/027d931eddea86f2a66e44f0e445a386-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/16a21ddcd7bdf43e266634a8b9a1e391.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26392\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:1200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/16a21ddcd7bdf43e266634a8b9a1e391.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/16a21ddcd7bdf43e266634a8b9a1e391-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ef2c45503704d0dceb3b7f967d8658d7.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26393\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:1200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ef2c45503704d0dceb3b7f967d8658d7.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ef2c45503704d0dceb3b7f967d8658d7-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ab9349b20aab5ffb7565cc8c495332d8.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26394\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:1200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ab9349b20aab5ffb7565cc8c495332d8.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ab9349b20aab5ffb7565cc8c495332d8-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/caad7f6e4386e8a56d5c8b0bd7fdac77.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26395\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:1200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/caad7f6e4386e8a56d5c8b0bd7fdac77.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/caad7f6e4386e8a56d5c8b0bd7fdac77-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ferrari enthusiasts will be excited to learn that a 1971 Ferrari 365 GTC\/4 is now up for auction over on Collecting Cars.
