I’ve seen 15 GTO’s, all at Goodwood. Lord Bamford has quite a collection. I’ve seen Nick Masons 250 many many times.
-
I’m an American that went to the 2012 Goodwood Festival of Speed. I met Nick Mason coming out of a VIP area. He signed my day pass. A highlight. Also had Sterling Moss sign another day pass.

Summary: Don't get married, you'll have more money for cars

Fine job putting this & others together - Keep-up the excellent work, with Fun '- Thankyou!
-
Great info on owners and chassis numbers of the GTO, thank you for sharing, I just subscribed!
-
Derek Hill inherited the 250 Gto from his father Phil Hill who raced there winning some endurance races of the time. Ferrari gave it to him I believe following the victory in the F1 World Championship. Probably the most beautiful and winning gto

Maybe Lamborghini Miura , Bugatti EB110, Ferrari 288 GTO, Lexus LFA, Mclaren LM / GTR, Maserati MC12 would make good cars to feature, in a car owners video. Thank you for the GTO video i learned a lot, and enjoyed it.

It is not the most expensive car ever made, it is the car that is worth the most.

I very much enjoyed the video 📹

My relationship with Ferrari goes back to the 1960’s. The only 250GTO owner I ever knew was French collector Jess Pourret. While I did meet Ralph Lauren in August 1976 at Pebble Beach but did not chat. The closest I ever came to Nick Mason was a Pink Floyd concert in 1995 (Rose Bowl). Good seats but hardly close to the stage.

Nick Mason obviously the coolest 250 got owner. Though RL is pretty cool too!
-
Do a video on famous owners of Lamborghini Countach or Ferrari Enzo
-
Watching from Belgium 😃
-
hilarious and informative! very cool that Nick Mason still has the car and races it. now Pink Floyd might sound a bit better to me even though i'm already a bigtime fan. bigtime.

I was fortunate to ride in a G.T.O. at Laguna Seca Raceway it was Awesome !
-
Nice little video. I met Nick Mason at castle Combe many years ago at a fundraising event for Lord Mayor Treloar school for disabled children, lovely guy. My son was there representing the school/college. My son had a ride round the track in Nicks D type Jaguar whilst I was taking some publicity shots for the college.

Some corrections, per the excellent book, "Ferrari 250 GTO -- The History of a Legend," by Anthony Pritchard: • There were only 36 250 GTOs built, not 39. Three cars were fitted with 4-liter engines, and are commonly referred to as "4-liter GTOs," although they were never built as GTs. Two are numbered as SAs (SuperAmericas), and one as an LM, and were all built as prototypes. One SA and the LM were produced in '62, and the other SA in '63. • #3987, the Ralph Lauren car, was originally sold to North American Ferrari distributor Luigi Chinetti and his North American Racing Team, and soon after was sold to John Mecom. Painted in Mecom's Pelham Blue, in the hands of Roger Penske and Augie Pabst, driving for Mecom Racing, the car finished 4th overall and 1st in the GT class at the 1963 12 Hours of Sebring. • #3767 was the first of David Piper's two GTOs. Piper was a well-know and respected Ferrari GT, sports car, and prototype driver, but was not a Ferrari F1 driver. • #4399, the second Anthony Bamford car you've profiled, was initially sold to Maranello Concessionaires, a British distributor for Ferrari and a potent racing team. The car was produced in 1963 and originally sported the classic '62-63 body style. However, in late '63 or early '64 it was re-bodied with the 1964 body shown in the video. • #3713 : There is no GTO with this chassis number. However, Anthony Wang does own #4713, so we can chalk that up to a typo. And #4713 is the most distinctive of all of the GTOs. In 1963, Ferrari built three 330LMBs, which are essentially a Ferrari 250GT Lusso (the Ferrari road car at the time) from the windshield back, with the classic GTO front end ahead of the windshield. As 330LMBs, the cars were prototypes, not GTs. However, a fourth LMB was constructed with the 3-liter engine, and was given chassis number 250GTO 4713GT, making it a GTO. This car finished 6th in the 1963 24 Hours of LeMans, driven by David Piper and Masten Gregory, and is sometimes referred to as a "250LMB."
