Friday's Ferrari

This car took part in the Aston Martin GT Challenge race at the Aston Martin Owners Club's meeting at Oulton Park in May 2017 and is pictured at Old Hall Corner during the early morning qualifying session.

It's a 2009 Ferrari F430 Challenge and it was driven in the 50 minute long race by Richard Cook and Harvey Stanley. The Ferrari F430 Challenge, which has a 4,308cc V8 engine, replaced the 360 Challenge and was produced from 2007 to 2001, being succeeded by the 458 Challenge.

Friday's Ferrari

This is a car I saw recently near the Manchester United football ground. I grabbed a photograph as it came past me on Wharfside Way, then another couple as it was held up going into the football ground's car park.

It's a Ferrari F430 Scuderia Spider 16M, a special edition of the F430 Scuderia, and produced to mark Ferrari's 16th victory in the Formula 1 Constructor's World Championship in 2008.

The car has a 4.3 litre V8 engine.

Only 499 of these cars were built, to be sold to selected clients, and the plaque on the right-hand side of the real panel commemorates the 16th Constructor's title.
