Driving Nigel Mansell's Legendary 1989 Ferrari F40 (Gifted by Enzo Ferrari)

There may be quite a few F40's floating around, but some are a bit more unique than others. The first run of the legendary twin-turbo supercar featured non-adjustable suspension, Lexan race windows, no door cards, and came from the factory without any catalytics. After quite a bit of chasing we purchased one of these Ferrari F40's and its pedigree didnt end with its early production status. This car belonged to Legendary Formula One driver, Nigel Mansell who was gifted the car by none other than Ferrari Founder, Enzo Ferarri in celebration of Nigel's signing to the Scuderia F1 Team in 1989.

Just went into it cold, no words, just let the car do the talking. That was amazing, John.

@@WeAreCurated I've re-watched several videos of yours just because you're pleasant to listen to. Your passion shows. I've noticed an AR and AK in the background of some of your videos. Are you a gun 'curator' as well?

I love F40 but i will never afford one .. once an F40 is pulled out to be driven it always create a paranoia around.. at 4:39 is on traffic highway on left lane a Tesla S (with no sound) in the middle the F40(loud & spitting flames) and on the right a new BMW X5 of which lady passenger got her phones out to take some photos / filming the most insane shoot.. ;0)

I think the best part must be the lady around the 4:25 mark... Filming the F40, from the passenger seat of that SUV. While I doubt she's into cars (I could be wrong), she can tell the F40 is a special car... It sounds great, even cruising around like that. What a car....

Curious fact, the first F40 manufactured in 1987 for the Italian market before the restrictions, produced more than 650hp and weighed less than 1100kg with fluids, the maximum speed of these cars was above 370km/h, and in fact the American version has no more hp than the European one, it only has more hp than the number declared by Ferrari, but all tests done comparing the European and American versions to the European ones have more hp!

Great vid John. Remember the fuss when he sold car. I was in Ferrari sales back then. Thinking it was the court case and the fact he’d negotiated in his contract a Ferrari dealership on the channel island he lived on too. In those days premiums were frowned upon by the factory so big surprise when he made the sale in the first place. Keep up the great work.
