This is a car I've featured several times previously, and this photograph was taken at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1995.
It's David Cottingham's 1957 Ferrari 500 TRC, chassis #0682MDTR, with the Lampredi designed 4-cylinder inline 2-litre engine and a Scaglietti body. The car was originally campaigned by Jacques Swaters' Ecurie National Belge team with whom it competed at the 1957 Le Mans 24 Hour race in the hands of Lucien Bianchi and Georges Harris, finishing in 9th place overall and winning the 2-litre class.
