The French company De La Chapelle has presented a miniature copy of the legendary racing Ferrari from the 60s. The model, named Ferrari 330 P2 Junior, is about half the size of its prototype, but the detailing is done at the highest level.
The auction organizers did not expect much excitement — the preliminary estimate of the lot did not exceed 10 thousand euros. However, reality exceeded expectations: a real battle of buyers unfolded for this reduced copy.
A notable feature of this car is that it is not electric, like most similar children's cars. Under its hood is a gasoline engine with a power of 5 horsepower, borrowed from a Honda moped.
Such a high final cost is explained by the uniqueness of the model — the Ferrari 330 P2 Junior exists in a single copy. The previous price record for a children's car was 105 thousand euros — that much was paid for a Ferrari 250 Testarossa, whose production run numbered five units.
By the way, well-known automakers are also engaged in creating such children's cars. For example, not so long ago, Bugatti presented its version.
