A priceless Ferrari 250 just showed up to a Wimbledon car meet being used as a dog car and the owner had absolutely no apologies about it

This YouTuber showed up at a car meet near London with a Ferrari 250, but he was immediately outshone by an even better 250.

The name 250 has been used for so many models that it’s now difficult to understand which is which.

This was the perfect example of that, because the YouTuber’s 250 was worth six figures, while the other one was worth eight.

And what’s particularly shocking is the way the owner was using it.

The reason why there’s more than one Ferrari 250

Like with other Ferraris, the name 250 was simply based on the displacement of a single cylinder.

Through the years, the Italian automaker ended up using the name 250 for several different models across two decades, and as a result, you now have 250s that are worth six figures, seven figures, or even eight figures.

For example, the most expensive Ferrari in the world – and most expensive car in the world before the record was broken – is a 250.

And that’s the irony in this video, because these two Ferrari 250s couldn’t be more different.

This YouTuber thought he’d be the only 250 owner at this car meet, but it didn’t go that way

TGE TV, real name Tom Exton, attended a car meet in Wimbledon, in south London, at the wheel of his Ferrari 250.

Exton’s car is a 250 GT Pininfarina, which is a classic icon, but also relatively attainable as far as 250s go.

Depending on different factors, the 250 GT Pininfarina is a car you can buy for between $300,000 and $500,000.

The same cannot be said about the 250 TR that London Ferrari dealer Joe Macari was driving.

In mint condition, this is an eight-figure car.

Only 22 were built, and the original 1957–1958 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa (TR) models can easily go for $30 million or more.

But Macari didn’t seem too concerned with that.

Not only was he actually driving the car rather than keeping it in a sealed garage, he was actually driving it with his dog on the passenger seat.
