About Ferrari cars

Ferrari was founded in 1939 by Enzo Ferrari, and took on his name in 1945, quickly seeing success in motorsport. Ferrari won the 1949 24 Hours of Le Mans and won its first Formula 1 race in 1951.

Over the years it saw continued success in motorsport as well as building beautiful high-performance road cars. Three of the five most expensive cars ever bought at auction are Ferraris, two of those being 250 GTOs – one went for more than £50m.

To this day, Ferrari makes some of the most exciting sports cars money can buy. For example, the 296 GTB offers exhilarating performance, and the brand has just launched its first SUV, the Purosangue.

Alternatives to Ferrari cars

We don’t currently sell Ferraris on carwow, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get your luxury performance car fix. McLaren makes excellent sports cars, too, while you have Aston Martin and Bentley building luxury performance SUVs. Then there’s Porsche, of course, which makes brilliantly comfortable and capable options that are generally much more affordable than their Italian alternatives. Keep an eye on carwow for the latest new car deals and second hand cars.
