A Ferrari icon once owned by a rock legend - form a disorderly queue...
It would probably be reasonable to suggest that Nick Mason is known by many as much for his cars as his music. That Live 8 reunion, Pink Floyd’s first performance together in more than 24 years, was itself in July 2005, almost 17 years ago - when Tony Blair was still Prime Minister. As if to prove the point, 2005 was a year after Into The Red was first published, Mason’s book chronicling ownership of some of the world’s most exciting cars.
Perhaps his most famous automobile is the Ferrari 250 GTO; the original bumf for the book speaks of it being “highly expensive”, with “a value of £10m at its peak”. Ah, sweet, innocent, early 21 century. But Mason has also owned, amongst many others, a Ferrari T3 F1 car, an F40, a 250MM, a LaFerrari andSaid to be ordered new when collecting his F40 from Maranello - as if the trip wasn’t going to be memorable enough -was owner by Mason for three years.
Originally Blu Sera, the Testarossa was later resprayed Rosso Scuderia. Which does seem somewhat of a shame when you consider how magnificent it once looked painted an inky dark blue - so it should be no surprise that the last owner bought it with the intention of returning the Testarossa to the original colour. Another owner shouldn’t feel guilty about getting the job done. , being sold with a detailed history and plenty of original paperwork.
Despite having covered less than a thousand miles a year since 1989, there are plenty of lower mileage Testarossas out there for those that want them. This is definitely a car from the higher maintenance era of Ferrari, one for special occasions than more regular use. However, even those who don’t remember the Testarossas in period have grown up admiring them, with values now reflecting that., with comparable Testarossas available at more money - and later TRs pricier still.
