SIMPLY RED

Red is somehow synonymous with both Valentine’s Day and sporty cars and in February a line-up of 20 of the museum’s sportiest red machines were put on show for visitors to admire. Oldest car in the display is the 1937 Maserati 6CM and the newest is the 2002 Ferrari Enzo, and these rare Italians are joined by six other Ferraris including both the F40 and F50, two more Maseratis, three Alfa Romeos and a single Moretti. Representing the UK are a Jaguar XK120, Aston Martin DB3S, Austin-Healey 100/4 and a McLaren M6 GTR. Completing the line-up are a Porsche 912 and Ford GT40. The display will be on view for the next couple of months. MM
