The 1956 Ferrari 860 Monza had a Lampredi designed 3.4 litre four cylinder engine and, in conjunction with the 290MM, was victorious in the 1956 World Sportscar Championship, winning three of the five races on the calendar, the 12 hours of Sebring, the Mille Miglia, and the Swedish Grand Prix. Three of the cars were built, one of which is now owned by Chris Evans. Two of the cars were at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1995, although the programme shows the engine displacement for both of them as 3000cc.
