Car spotting in Europe, May 2023

My wife and I went to Italy, Monaco, and south of France, in May of 2023. Here are some of the cars that grabbed my attention.


Lake Como, Italy

These matching Ferrari Dinos were waiting for the ferry in Bellagio, on Lake Como.
This was a pair, not the same car. (notice the wheels are different)







Maranello, Italy


We paid a visit to the Ferrari factory in Maranello, Italy.
On site is the Musei Ferrari, where these cars were on display.


Ferrai F50



Ferrari F40



LaFerrari




Ferrri Enzo



1952 Ferrari 166 mm Berlinetta Vignale



1953 Ferrai 500 Monodial



2007 Ferrari F430 Scuderia




Chianti, Italy


We drove on gravel, country roads on our way to a B&B in Tuscany. We went through a small town where I saw this Fiat 126 looking like a rally car. It has Giannini badging, which is a well regarded Fiat tuning shop, in Rome.





Volterra, Italy

Beaters with character always catch my eye.
Here is a 90's Fiat Panda, in the lovely hilltop town, Volterra, Italy




Our rental car: Audi A5


Here we are fueling up our rental car, heading north along the tollway,
on the Italian riviera, toward Monaco. It was a diesel.




Monaco, during F1 week


Spotted this nice BMW E30 M3, in the parking garage in Monaco



Ferrari 488 parked in front of Casino de Monte Carlo, on the day before
practice started for the F1 Gran Prix of Monaco.


Right across the street was this Ferrari FF 



A Fiat 500 that caught my eye.
A 60th anniversary, special edition, cabrio. More fashion accessory than car.





Antibes, France

Along the French Riviera, a dark grey Ferrari F430 coupe.



Provence, France

Driving down an alley, spotted this wrecked Ferrari F430, growing weeds
outside an auto shop, in Vers-Pont-du-Gard



A VW Fox with a rally theme, near Arles, France
