John Lennon's Ferrari up for auction


This light blue 1965 Ferrari 330GT 2+2 that once belonged to Lennon was scheduled to be auctioned by Bonhams in Paris in February 2011 with a high estimate of 170,000 Euros. It was withdrawn shortly before the sale owing to “consignor’s remorse.”

It will reappear at Bonhams’s “Goodwood Festival of Speed” sale on 12 July with a revised formal upper valuation of £220,000 -- a price increase of more than 30 percent.

The coupe was included in cars that local dealerships sent to the Beatle’s Weybridge home in February 1965 on the day he earned his driver’s license.
