Ferrari 250 Europa
Ferrari 250 Europa Coupé (1953)
Among the earliest Colombo V12 grand tourers, the 250 Europa marked Ferrari’s transition from pure competition cars to refined road-going GTs.
The 250 Europa represents Ferrari’s first serious step into the world of refined grand touring.
Long bonnet proportions, restrained detailing and the sonorous Colombo V12 define its character.
Two distinct coachbuilt interpretations are shown here:
• Vignale-bodied coupé (SN 0313), one of only five examples
• Pinin Farina coupé (SN 0305), part of a small series of fourteen cars
