Old Ferrari, what is it though?

[rallye101]

My friends just been given a very nice Ferrari,'50s I think...
The owner has gone back to Sweden for the summer and told him to use it as and when he wants in return for his secure parking space in London..
Can anyone tell us what it is?

Looks like a 250 TR. ?.
I'm guessing it would be a recreation.
I know this is PH, and you often get surprises but just letting someone loose with a $15 million + car
seems a little unlikely.

1957 250 Testa Rossa Almost identical one to yours on the last picture

Blimey! Can't be real? I
I've looked up the number plate on the DVLA ..it's not come back with anything..
It's got a nice engine though..

Why don't I have friends who leave me stuff like that? The only things we get to look after are the neighbour's cats and the occasional guinea pig

Looks like this car:

And will that be a Guernsey number plate? If so does that show on the DVLA site?

Must be a Testarossa ,it has "red heads".

Wibble......

As stated above, Guernsey reg so will have no answers on the DVLA.

Surely can't be original......?!

[StonetheCrows]

Not same car, different interior trim and no fuel filler in rear

[generationx]

Maybe the same chassis number though...

The Swedish chap would be far better off leaving it at my house - ( He could also adopt me at the same time !! )

Embarrassed to admit that I think I recognise the car park, but not the car. Won't take a guess in case I'm right.

Hmm, must get out more!
