I agree that there seem to be two cars and my mistake was thinking that there was wheelspin in second gear whereas it is obviously the second car taking off.
Ferry had an old Studebaker when he was younger

and there is a photo of him with a DB4

Also here he talks about his prized Corvette

But it does not sound like any of these in the song. I will say now that it is two four cylinders probably a Triumph Spitfire taking off followed by an MGB
Amazing with the wealth of knowledge here and on google that we have not found an answer.
somebody must know as it is such an iconic song

You need to award yourself several Brownie points for that information!Does it have Ferrari mechanicals or is it based on a donor vehicle?
Certainly does not sound like a Ferrari starting up so I assume this film was made independently of Roxy Music at a later date.
