Persoonlijke primeur! First for me. First on the website. Long story upcoming, but this is once in a lifetime spot! It's one of the rarest cars I have ever uploaded. This is a one of one 250 Europa Vignale Coupé with this specific bodywork. There are only 21 units of the 250 Europa. 4 of them were built with a Vignale body (all were different bodies) and this is the only one with this style of body. These cars are extremely rare and highly sought after. VIN 0313 sold for $3.4 million in 2017, but was originally purchased for $17.500. This is VIN 0295 and owned by Kevin Cogan. Until 2015, this car (from 1953) had only been shown in public three times: at the Paris Auto Show in 1953, at the Ferrari Club of America in 1966 and at the 2015 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It has undergone two restorations, one in the eighties and one between 2012 and 2015 that took 2,5 years. Since Pebble Beach, this car gets seen more frequently, was displayed in the Ferrari Museum in Maranello and made an appearance at the 2016 Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este and 2016 Cavallino Classic. Numerous prizes were won with this rare Ferrari. The 250 Europa is the predecessor of the 250 Europa GT. What an absolutely beautiful car!

@NLpetrolhead dat is ingesteld voor nieuwe auto's die voor een testrit naar buiten gaan. Daarmee willen we voorkomen dat iemand 9 SF90's, 12 F8's, 6 Portofino's etc upload. Iedereen die twee uur op dit kruispunt staat ziet tientallen Ferrari's. Om flooding te voorkomen is besloten om al dat nieuwe spul niet meer te accepteren op die platen. Zie hier bv een F40 en Daytona die we gewoon toegelaten hebben: https://www.autogespot.nl/ferrari-f40/2021/08/08 en https://www.autogespot.nl/ferrari-365-gts-4-daytona/2021/10/04. Vind je het beter als we dat even verduidelijken/specificeren?
