The Ferrari 250 GTO is one of the most
successful and highly regarded cars ever produced. Built purely for racing, the
250 GTO dominated the Grand Touring racing category in the period 1962–64 and
raced in all of the world's sports car classics, including Le Mans. Ferrari built just 40 production
cars, and almost all were raced. Because of its sheer beauty, its immensely
successful track record and the relatively small number of cars built, the 250
GTO is among the world’s most valuable cars and examples now change hands for sums in
excess of £5 million. This lavishly produced book provides a definitive history
of the iconic 250 GTO, including individual histories of each car built.
