It didn't take part in any of the races but appears to be a Ferrari Dino Sports Prototype from the late 1950s. I've seen it described as a 1958 Ferrari Dino 196S replica, but only one Dino 196S was ever built and this car doesn't really resemble it. The Dino 196S is a 1959 car, chassis #0776S, and has a 1,984cc V6 engine, but the DVLA record says that this replica is a 1958 Ferrari with a 2,417cc engine. The only Sports racing Ferraris with the 2,417cc engine were the Ferrari 246P of 1960 and the 246SP of 1961, and they were both mid-engined cars. The Ferrari Dino 246GT introduced in 1969 has a 2,419cc V6 engine.
