Couldn't find a thread on this..
A businessman left 2 rare Ferraris in his will to the RNLI

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-55352969

Mr Colton left the RNLI a red 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB, which sold at auction for £6.6m, and a 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4, which raised £1.93m.

My Ferrari is left to my oldest friend. He does not know. In reality it will only go to him if something happens to me before my time as I guess he wont want it as an 80 year old man. However if I get run over by a bus he can have it and have some fun!

For Gods sake don’t tell him or may well take up bus driving.

Seriously, lovely thought.

Hmm... good point!!

I will probably sell it anyway in the long term but its just a fun thing if something random was to happen and its worth about 1% of the 250 GT posted above so not really anything life changing just a laugh really.
