Ferrari 250 GT Lusso (1962)

The much-celebrated 250 series by Ferrari is arguably the most iconic family of cars ever known and the Lusso is considered by many as its most attractive. Debuting at the Paris Salon in October 1962, with styling by Pininfarina, the Lusso (or ‘luxury’) was that rare machine capable of satisfying a seemingly impossible spectrum of needs; the ability to perform over long journeys at high speeds whilst still providing the absolute in comfort for both driver and passenger. Exquisitely proportioned, it fused a low-hung nose with hewn Kamm tail and its comforts included a fully trimmed interior and a softer suspension than its track-dwelling siblings. Hung on a short wheelbase chassis, the Lusso was powered by a light and compact three litre V12 engine combing three twin-choke Weber carburettors. With a top speed of 150mph (240km/h) and a handy 0-100mph (0-160km/h) acceleration time of 19.5 seconds, the Lusso was the thrilling finale of the 250 series; an unrepeatable family of road-going machinery.
