Chris Evans buys Ferrari 250 GT California for £5m

By Tim Pollard Motor Shows 19 May 2008 10:36 The ginger motormouth is a well known fan of scarlet sports cars, but even we were surprised when UK broadcaster Chris Evans splashed out £5 million on an immaculate 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spyder. Evans blew €7,040,000 on the black sports car, the thirteenth of just 56 built.

2013 Hyundai Santa Fe UK: Price, Spec, new photos & video

As part of the Jaguar Land Rover plan to get Jaguar F-Types flying out of showrooms in the same way Range Rover Evoques do, Jaguar had brokered a deal with unions on working practices at Castle Browmwich to make sure they can cope with demand when the F-Type goes on sale.
