The Homecoming: 1963 Ferrari 250 GTE

There’s ‘classic’ and then there’s Ferrari Classiche “Red Book” Certified. We’ve brought this masterpiece back to its roots.

Delivered new to Belgium in June 15, 1963, the ‘Ferrari 250 GTE 2+2’ is officially home. Seeing that Grigio Argento paint against the white-washed villas of Le Zoute feels less like a photo shoot and more like a time machine.

Why this car is one of the best;
‱ Heritage: Full Ferrari Classiche certification confirming its matching-numbers soul.
‱ The Look: Finished in its period-correct combo of Silver over a rich Rosso interior.
‱ The Journey: Only 41,750 km since it first touched Belgian soil 63 years ago.

With only 957 ever made, finding one with this level of provenance is like finding a needle in a haystack - if the needle was a V12-powered work of art by Pininfarina.

Currently presiding in the JD Iconic Showroom at Knokke-Heist, this is a piece of Belgian automotive history.

Is there a more elegant way to cruise the Kustlaan or any other European boulevard? We think not!

The last masterpiece personally approved by Enzo Ferrari. 🏁

It was 1987. The world was favouring refinement, but the F40 wasn’t built for comfort - it was built for absolute dominance. As the first production car to shatter the 200mph barrier, it was a race car masquerading for the road.

No power steering. No power brakes. Just a gated magnesium shifter and a 2.9L twin-turbo V8 screaming behind your head.

In an age of hybrid assists and digital interfaces, the raw, visceral experience of the F40 is a vanishing breed. This isn’t just a car; it’s the definitive end of an analogue era.

The Birth of the ‘Supercar’
 the Lamborghini Miura!

Ever wondered where the “Supercar” term and DNA truly began? Look no further than the Sant’Agata Bolognese production line, circa 1968.

In this rare glimpse behind the curtain, we see a fleet of Lamborghini Miuras - the car that didn’t just break the rules; it rewrote the entire playbook.

With its revolutionary mid-engine V12 and those iconic “eyelashes,” the Miura was Marcello Gandini’s masterpiece and Ferruccio Lamborghini’s ultimate “mic drop” to the automotive world.

Look at that sea of Arancio Miura (Miura Orange). This wasn’t just an assembly line; it was an altar of Italian craftsmanship. Each car was hand-assembled by a small team of artisans who knew they were building more than just a vehicle - they were building a revolution.

From the posters on your childhood bedroom wall to the modern-day offerings, every wedge-shaped dream started right here.

Which colour would you choose?

From Chaos to Lightning Precision: The Epic Evolution of F1 Pit Stops! 🏁

Back in 1950, during F1’s very first World Championship season (including the Indy 500), pit stops were raw and real – think manual jacks, hammer-whacking wheels, and stops lasting over a minute!

Mechanics in basic gear, drivers sometimes jumping out to help, all while pouring fuel from heavy cans. It was more about survival and fixes than strategy.

Fast-forward to 1957: Legend Juan Manuel Fangio pulled off the game’s first true strategic pit stop at the NĂŒrburgring German GP. Starting with a half-tank and softer tires for speed, he built a huge lead, pitted for fuel and rears
 and despite a messy 48-second delay, charged back to one of the greatest victories ever!

Today? Pure ballet on wheels – 20+ crew members in perfect sync, swapping all four tires in under 2 seconds (McLaren’s record: 1.80s!). No refueling since 2010, just razor-sharp teamwork turning strategy into spectacle.

Pit stops don’t just service the car – they WIN races!

Which era’s pit stop blows your mind more: the gritty 1950s or today’s sub-2-second magic? Drop a comment! 👇

A real treat today - the famous ‘1966 Ford GT40 Mk III Prototype’ Chassis XP130/1, a one-of-a-kind beast that almost rewrote supercar history!

In 1966, Ford were on a Le Mans rampage, to crush Ferrari’s dreams. But amid the racetrack glory, they dreamed bigger – a street-legal GT40 for the elite, blending raw power with grand touring finesse.

Enter the Mk III: just SEVEN ever built, and this LHD prototype. One of only FOUR road-going gems. Born from an unused Mk I monocoque at John Wyer’s Slough Factory, it was Ford’s bold stab at a 200+ mph daily driver for the jet set.

Debuting at the 1967 New York Auto Show in its sultry Dark Metallic Blue, it stole the spotlight. Car and Driver clocked 0-60 in under 5 seconds, top speed kissing 175 mph – all from a 289ci Windsor V8 pumping 306 hp through a slick 4-speed Toploader, 40-inch stance, aluminum bones
 this wasn’t just a car; it was a time machine on wheels. Revised aero for road poise, luxe cabin tweaks – air con optional, because why not chill at Mach speeds?

Fast-forward: A roof-crashing mishap sidelined it, then Gulf Oil heir Prosser Mellon stashed it away. Then a Yellow repaint in 1976 when New Jersey collector Ralph Bass turned it into a Mk I racer for track thrills in 2003.

The Car came back to the UK in 2010, where it was raced hard, then put into a 2-year, blueprint-true restoration back to its 1966 spec.

GT40 guru Ronnie Spain blessed it – finished back to its original blue, every rivet authentic. Then followed a Pebble Beach Concours place in 2016.

Today, valued at over £10m, it’s a ‘what if’ – the GT40 supercar that slipped away. Dry weight ~2,600 lbs, double-wishbone suspension, disc brakes gripping like fate.

Duncan Hamilton brings his works Jaguar C-Type down the pit straight to celebrate their win of the Le Mans 24 Hours on June 13, 1953 - the perfect

Sitting next to Hamilton is his co-driver Tony Rolt who has had time to adopt some non-racing wear as two of the Jaguar mechanics ride along behind them.

Not long before the end of the race, Hamilton’s windscreen was struck on the Mulsanne by a bird which broke the windscreen and Hamilton’s nose. He did not slow down.

The start of the race almost did not happen for the this British duo. By an unfortunate error their car number was also on a spare C-Type which Stirling Moss wanted to test to compare with the C-Type he was to drive. This he did and the officials decided to disqualify Hamilton and Rolt because Moss was not listed as a driver on their car.

As told in Hamilton’s superb autobiography ‘Touch Wood’, the two drivers, realizing that their race was over before it had begun, decided to spend the evening drinking, and drank themselves almost insensate.

Sir William Lyons, the head of Jaguar, convinced the officials otherwise on their disqualification by paying a large fine. He then had to somehow get his drivers recovered enough to drive. Hamilton was to take the start so he immediately drank a large brandy so he would feel better.

Tony Rolt, also needed some refreshment as he prepared to take over from Hamilton. Apparently, brandy was also his choice. Somehow this slightly inebriated pair survived the 24 hours and as their competition fell away, including Moss who had led for quite some time, they found themselves in the lead.

At the finish they had become the first car to exceed 100 mph as an average speed for the race. This was duplicated by some several finishers behind them although their margin of victory was four laps.

For many years the winning Jaguar C-Type was the proud possession of Duncan Hamilton’s son Adrian who unfortunately passed away.

Fuelling his iconic roles in Bullitt and Le Mans. From racetracks to silver screens, McQueen lived for the roar of engines. 🏁
