Ferrari 458 Spider & Ferrari California 30 debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed

The Ferrari 458 Spider and the new California 30 have made their UK debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The hugely appealing Ferrari 458 Spider has made its UK debut at the 2012 Goodwood Festival of Speed alongside the new, more powerful California – the Ferrari California 30.

Bertone ordered to auction six cars from museum collection

A selection of six cars forming part of the official museum collection of Carrozzeria Bertone will be auctioned off at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este.

The auction is also a symbolic action: it marks the first time that any Bertone vehicles have been offered for sale to the public.
