Driving Nigel Mansell's Legendary 1989 Ferrari F40 (Gifted by Enzo Ferrari)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июн 2021
- There may be quite a few F40's floating around, but some are a bit more unique than others. The first run of the legendary twin-turbo supercar featured non-adjustable suspension, Lexan race windows, no door cards, and came from the factory without any catalytics. After quite a bit of chasing we purchased one of these Ferrari F40's and its pedigree didnt end with its early production status. This car belonged to Legendary Formula One driver, Nigel Mansell who was gifted the car by none other than Ferrari Founder, Enzo Ferarri in celebration of Nigel's signing to the Scuderia F1 Team in 1989.

Just went into it cold, no words, just let the car do the talking. That was amazing, John.
: ) Thank you! That was the goal. Honestly, who wants to hear me talk??
@@WeAreCurated I've re-watched several videos of yours just because you're pleasant to listen to. Your passion shows. I've noticed an AR and AK in the background of some of your videos. Are you a gun 'curator' as well?
@@LambosOnly what videos are you taking about
"That ginger lad that likes Ferrari's" 10/10 accurate description.
I love F40 but i will never afford one .. once an F40 is pulled out to be driven it always create a paranoia around.. at 4:39 is on traffic highway on left lane a Tesla S (with no sound) in the middle the F40(loud & spitting flames) and on the right a new BMW X5 of which lady passenger got her phones out to take some photos / filming the most insane shoot.. ;0)
I love that Italian symphony. The sound of total domination.
Not to sh*t on your point but, 959....
I like how you put it…”sound of total domination.”👍
Really enjoyed the start of the video without any talking, reminded me of an old movie with just the sounds of the car. Then I enjoyed hearing you talk about it. Another great video
I think that movie was The Gumball Rally.
Feels more like the old Rendezvous in Paris vibes.
Yeah man me to the start of this video is pure car porn.
The video doesn't show the speed of the car, just the sound. A very boring video, it's a waste of time.
I think the best part must be the lady around the 4:25 mark... Filming the F40, from the passenger seat of that SUV. While I doubt she's into cars (I could be wrong), she can tell the F40 is a special car... It sounds great, even cruising around like that. What a car....
3:25 Pause that shot. Could be the cover art for some 1980s arcade racer.
need for speed I
It looked very oddly artificial.
@@wronggg Yes.

Definitely, one of the best F40 videos I have ever seen! Well done man!
Former F1 Champ Nico Rosberg has a upload on RUclips driving one around Monaco ...he said to drive F40 was always on his bucket list!! It's a good watch.
Sliding windows make the euro spec’s that much better. Love it!
How does this channel not have a million subscribers??? Great video John.
Excuse my language, but This is a fucking legendary video. Perfect. The sounds are hair raising, love it!!!
Thank you so much!!
That’s the proper way to describe this video.
I would love to imagine Mansell watching this video and seeing his car now in the hands of a business that's so passionate about the motors they purchase. I'm sure he would be happy to see that.
Nigel sold the car within months of getting it.
@@briankearn6991 Nothing like some cold hard facts to kill my imagination 🤣
There is nothing that beats this car man.
We need POVS like this for every car 😩countach especially
F50 please
title of this should be "F40 IE: Intensa Emozione"
This F40 sounds way meaner than any other ive been in over the years. This is truly one very special F40
When simply watching someone drive this car can produce such an emotional response by the viewer, no words are necessary. Thank you for this.
Thank you for the kind words!
@@WeAreCurated Huge fan. Keep up the great content!
Amazing all around. Lost for words. Great job John and crew.
LOVE the intro with just the car and it's sound. No need for talking or a music background. Thanks for yet another great video.
I truly love how calm and normal seeming it was watching you start and drive an amazing car. Love your videos keep it up!
Man. you are living my dream! Awesome stuff!! Such amazing work and dedication
Once again you shared with us something very special. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Introduction was absolutely incredible! Keep up the great work team!
Wow. Thx John. The sound and footage are incredible.
Man. I always have respected you. But the way you started the video just took my respect to another level. No need for an intro or even words. Thanks for the wonderful sounds.
And it is an honour to have you share the car and story/background with us John
You can see that John was so overwhlemed filiming this, he just remained speechless. Has this always been your dream drive man ?
Amazing shots and my favorite car in the world. You are driving a dream life thank you for let us see this footage. Greetings from Uruguay
Love it, thank you Curated!
I think one of the best F40 driving videos!!
Absolute surreal pleasure. Congrats on the acquisition!
great video, thank you for posting. fascinating history of an iconic car.
For me still today, the “holy grail” of super cars, the F40. One of my catchlines in the corporate world is “every man’s got a price, my price is the title of a Ferrari F40…. Only, else forget it there’s no price interesting enough for me” 😁.
Best video on RUclips right now! I wish my phone sounded this good so I could set my ringtone to that! I just might sit there and call myself all day
So badass thanks 🙏 for showing us
sounds so good 🔥
Nice work with this video. The F40 is just one of the coolest cars ever made and I have never come across a car guy that doesn't like it!
What a car. And what a history! Another great video John.
John greetings from Germany. I'm italian and i think that this is the best F40 video on Yt till now . What for an emotion listening while you're driving this beast. I drove a lot of Sc but in my opinion the ultimate sc is the queen F-40. This is true love .what can i say minutes of goosebumps.
Man, the music in the backbround was the BEST EVER. Great video, thanks a lot.
Probably the greatest car of all time. Fantastic video
This video goes some way into giving me an idea of what it would be like to drive an F40. I loved it! The fact you didn’t talk and just drove! Exactly what an experience of driving this car would be like!
so perfect, keep up the good work sir!
Who keeps rewinding the first 6 minutes of this video? Watched it the first time all the way thru but the first 6 mins... I've seen over and over again. Such a glorious sound 😍
THIS is real car video content!!! not that load shouty branding flash BS that other car tubers sorely stick to. Hats off to you John!! youll hit 1 mill subs in to time!!! LOVE THIS!!!
Love that there was not a word spoken until @6:23, John just let the car speak for itself... high art here!
I don't know how he can sell cars like this... Man! epic!
Big compliment. Thank you.
Well John... yet another Fantastic example of a Ferrari F40 with an Incredible History involving not only an Amazing Formula 1 Driver but involving Enzo Ferrari himself. Wow! Thanks for sharing this incredible Car and Story with Us!
Your best video yet mate. 👍😉
The best kind of curator.
One who knows when to say nothing.
I salute you sir
😁
Agreed. Similar Miura SV video coming soon...
I really enjoy the stories and the knowledge that you have of these amazing vehicles. I do wish you would show more of the vehicle as you talk about them, panning video, stills ect. Also, some more camera angles as you drive them.
John you really need to label these videos as NSFW (not safe for work). Im sitting here getting a chub listening to the glorious sound of that F40 🤤
Wow! I love this channel!
...chewing gum. Ha ha!
John is so modest when he said this F40 is out of his budget. I dont think I can ever be in the vintage car selling business because no way I can let this one go.
Great video and even better car!, love the Enzo Ferrari🙌🏻💯😁
Thank you for another great history class ❤️❤️❤️
14:14 "That ginger lad" lol what a burn!!
When first saw John from hoovie channel didn't rate him but this guy is amazing. Love to see someone get excited about a car an can see how passionate he is. Love the channel
John that is the best looking and sounding F40 video I have seen and that is my idea of what heaven is like ...........
Absolutely legendary! Can't wait to visit your shop in Miami!
John as a lifelong enthusiast I appreciate that you just let us listen to the car get driven, reved and shifted. The glorious pops and crackles that it makes. And also anybody else irritated by how close and careless the BMW driver was. I know i would be incredibly excited to see one in the flesh but give it some space, that's millions of dollars going down the street.
Classy film John!
That was a hell of an intro!! Loved it
The F40 is the car I would love a chance to drive atleast for a brief moment. The newest Porsche 911 Turbo S is the car I would buy if I won in lottery but F40 is the one I would want to have one lap in.
Thanks for going through the rich history of the model! Much appreciated!
Great vid John. Remember the fuss when he sold car. I was in Ferrari sales back then. Thinking it was the court case and the fact he’d negotiated in his contract a Ferrari dealership on the channel island he lived on too. In those days premiums were frowned upon by the factory so big surprise when he made the sale in the first place. Keep up the great work.
That exhaust might be some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard! Loved the intro just driving!
Niiice!!! Congrats for your content. You ara a great story teller.
Dear lord this might be my favorite video yet
Beautiful cinematography, John smiled on the highway
What a car!!! Congratulations on the purchase! More footage of having ur foot in it please!!!!!!
Wow! This right here is truly epic.
Liked this video. Should do more like these where you drive around and have the camera not just inside the cockpit but also shoot the car from the outside while it's crusing, just like how you did it in this video - it is just more exciting to watch that way.
We are working on getting a car mount for our camera to make more of this style. We just dont have an easy way to film these and we always have super tight schedules. We're going to be making far better content in the near future.
@@WeAreCurated Oh, okay - that's cool. Keep it up and best of luck for your future videos!
Such an undersubbed channel. John truly is the go to guy for Lamborghinis and the real cool Ferrari’s.
First 6 minutes 🤤 fair play for 🤐 great video👌🏼
Best video of my favorite car I’ve ever seen. Felt like I was there
17:04 - of course Senna is in pole position. Miss that guy! RIP!
I could have watched you driving around for an hour. I was gripping the armrests on my chair the whole time.
: )
Authentic pops and bangs from the exhaust
Two things here
1 @ 3:45 that smirk of enjoyment
2 nothing but respect and love for this type of content.
Fantastic sound that you will never tire of👏👏👏👏🇦🇺
Johns drive face is something to behold especially when he's about to floor it!!! This guy is a Boss!
That intro..... thank you very much!
The pull and sound of that car is simply amazing!
This F-40 what a Beast! Being a F-40 alone is more than enough but the Mansell connection certainly brings it up in exclusivity. Your passion shows for all of these cars and the history they come with. I love CURATED TV.
Very interesting. Great history. I have an early Mansell supplied F355. A keeper. The guy is a F1 legend.
One of my first Ferrari's I had on my wall as a kid.
Thank you Great man
Like it how you couldnt keep smile off your face when going on the on ramp!!😊 sounds awesome!!👍
Nigel tells the story that when he went to Italy for the first time he liked a few bits of kit that were at the Factory including a Ducati and a Testarossa. Within days they got delivered to his house
Love the style John, jeans T shirt with a flannel, ultimate car guy, also the F40 is just beautiful, & the sound of it, Rj in Oz
Life doesn't get a lot better than this...
I had to stop the video and turn on the surround sound on my 65inch tv to continue watching.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👋👍👍👍👋👍. Thank you.👍👍👍👍!!!!!
Former F1 Champ Nico Rosberg has a upload on RUclips driving one around Monaco ...he said to drive F40 was always on his bucket list!! It's a good watch.
This channel is awesome
Thank you so much!
Ledgendary car with an incredible background just mind blowing! Ignore the toxic comments I really enjoy your videos you are a true car guy. I enjoy how you tell a story all of your videos are interesting.
Great story! Beautiful sounds!
Sometimes I just like to have background noise when chillin' out after work after the wife leaves for work (night shift)& the kid is in bed. This started out perfect it was oddly satisfying relaxing too 🥰 thank you
Curious fact, the first F40 manufactured in 1987 for the Italian market before the restrictions, produced more than 650hp and weighed less than 1100kg with fluids, the maximum speed of these cars was above 370km/h, and in fact the American version has no more hp than the European one, it only has more hp than the number declared by Ferrari, but all tests done comparing the European and American versions to the European ones have more hp!
Epic video
Thanks you so much for this review, i follow you from France i hope one day i can go to Miami and see your showroom for real.
I'll have to see in a moment where this goes from 4:00 but I had to pause there and say that moment sold me to subscribe and give a thumbs up as well simply because this is precisely how I had always thought an intro of this caliber should be executed, and it was done professionally here by this man and his crew....no over excited clowns or bozos with a trendy designer style clothing or haircut image, extremely top shelf...so far, let's keep it moving...
The smile says it all.. Respect
You don't see this around Miami much but man nothing is more Miami than an 80s Ferrari!
