1. This stunning 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider previously owned by football legend, David Beckham OBE, is offered for sale with H&H Classics at the Imperial War Museum Duxford on March 29 for an estimate of £85,000 - £95,000

Finished in Nero black with full Sabbia leather interior, ‘Y795 AOO’ is notable for having previously belonged to superstar footballer David Beckham OBE. He was certainly a fan of the model acquiring another 360 Spider in 2003.

Stated to have covered just 7,800 miles from new, the Ferrari has recently undergone a cambelt service at JCT 600 in Leeds.  Powered by a 3.6-litre V8 coupled to either a six-speed manual or F1 electrohydraulic manual transmission, the 360's lighter weight improved the 0-60 mph dash to just 4.2 seconds with a nominal top speed of over 180mph.

Damian Jones, Head of Sales at H&H, says of this car: “Any Ferrari 360 is a seriously exciting car to drive but this one with its notably low mileage and former ownership by a global icon is truly special”

It is fitted with such desirable extras as forged lightweight BBS alloys, wide carbon fibre backed racing seats, privacy glass, F1 Gearbox, Challenge rear grille and Tubi sports exhaust system.

It is offered with extensive Ferrari service history and will possess a fresh MOT by the time of sale. 

2.The blue 1964 Ferrari 330GT Nembo Spider is conservatively estimated to sell for a figure well in excess of £500,000. The car is a very rare specially commissioned Nembo Spider and has a 4 litre V12 engine. The late owner Richard Allen acquired the Nembo from Italy in the mid-nineties and decided not to drive it on the road but display it regularly at Ferrari events in the UK. The car became the most beloved of all the Prancing Horses in his extensive collection.  He bequeathed it to the East Anglian Air Ambulance Service for whom H&H Classics will be selling it.
