Ferrari 812 Competizione

Ferrari built just 999 examples of the 812 Competizione, the most extreme expression of its front-engined V12 line and a spiritual successor to the 599 GTO and F12tdf. Its 6.5-litre naturally aspirated engine produces 814 bhp and spins to 9,500rpm, with independent four-wheel steering, reduced weight and revised aerodynamics setting it well apart from the 812 Superfast. Claimed figures are 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds and a 211mph top speed.

This UK-supplied 2022 car is finished in Rosso Magma, a special-order paint, with an Argento Nürburgring and Nero DS livery and a Nero Alcantara interior. It has covered only 1,552 miles and wears green-tinted paint protection film. The Alcantara and carbon fibre theme runs throughout, including carbon dash inserts, door handles, parcel shelf and centre console section, plus a carbon rear diffuser, front air vents and underdoor cover.

The specification is better than most. Factory options include a suspension lifter, passenger display, large Daytona racing seats with a seat lifter, 20-inch diamond-polished forged wheels, adaptive headlights with SBL function and aluminium brake callipers. The lifter and passenger display are the sort of practical additions that make a car this extreme easier to live with, and they tend to matter to collectors. The car has since been sold.
