The Classic Ferrari 250 GTO
Three numbers and three letters that represent one of most revered models from one of the most revered marques: the Ferrari 250 GTO.
It was a development of its 250-series predecessors, the initials standing for Gran Turismo Omologato. Like all homologation cars, it was a special car honed for motorsport. Between 1962 and 1964, only 36 were built and buyers had to be personally approved by Enzo Ferrari before being allowed to purchase one.
The GTO was lower, lighter and stiffer than the 250 SWB on which it was based. It also had a wind-tunnel honed body which resulted in the svelte bespoilered rear end. It was a case of form equalling function; as well as being a more aerodynamically efficient shape, it is a lot more attractive than the rather bulky early prototype. While the design and development of the 250 GTO was a team effort, Giotto Bizzarrini is often credited with the work – until he and many other engineers were fired by Ferrari in 1962. Subsequent development was led by Mauro Forghieri.
Beneath that long, low bonnet – and requiring a bulge to fit it in – is the Columbo V12 engine that gives the 250 GTO the power and song to match its appearance. We don’t use the over-used word ‘iconic’ lightly, but the 250 GTO is a car that can rightly lay claim to it.
