Ferrari at 70: PH Photo Gallery

There are all sorts of Ferrari birthday parties this year, and Windsor Castle was one of the best yet!

---

Despite the inclement weather, around 70 Ferraris of all shapes and sizes gathered last Saturday on The Long Walk in front of Windsor Castle for the Maranello Egham parade to celebrate 70 years of the Cavallino Rampante. The parade was one of many to be organised with Ferrari North Europe and arguably one of the largest so far with fast, expensive and even unique examples of Maranello's finest in convoy through Windsor Park.

Notable appearances include two F40s, two F50s, a black Enzo, two F12 TdFs, a stunning 'tailor made' black and red LaFerrari, and two LaFerrari Apertas. As if those were not enough, there was also one of the first public appearances of the 812 Superfast in the country!

More special cars include the unique 250 SWB 'Car 14' liveried 488 Spider, a Daytona and Daytona Spider, and a 512 BBi. There was a quite dreadful supercharged 458 with a bodykit, but it didn't deserve my shutter count...

At the time of writing two more Ferrari 70 celebrations have taken place, however upcoming parades include Graypaul Nottingham on July 25th, Stratstone Manchester on August 1st, and JCT600 Leeds on August 4th. The most impressive display, however, will likely be at Silverstone on 23rd/24th September, when the Ferrari Racing Days take place - the European Challenge Series is there, plus an F1 demonstration...

Some stunning cars, shame about all the stickers ruining the beautiful lines. Is there a legal plate between them? ha.

Fair play to the F50 driver with the umbrella up!
