Eric Clapton Music
A fast Ferrari formerly owned by Eric ‘Slowhand’ Clapton is for sale on Auto Trader.
Grammy Award-winning guitar legend Eric Clapton was the first owner of this magnificent Ferrari 550 Maranello.
The gorgeous four-seat Ferrari is powered by a 5.5-litre V12 engine which develops 485bhp.
But Clapton isn’t the only musical powerhouse to receive an award – the sonorous V12 sitting in the Ferrari’s bonnet won the ‘over 4 litre’ class of the International Engine of the Year award for 2000 and 2001.
And its prodigious power output is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual, launching the 1.6-tonne 550 Maranello from 0-60mph in just 4.2 seconds.
Strum the accelerator to full throttle and the car will nudge an amazing 200mph.
Inside, the awesome GT gets a full black-hide leather interior complete with matching black carpets, and is fitted with a Tubi-style exhaust system and red brake calipers.
Clapton, 62, bought the Ferrari brand new in 2002 and owned it for three years.
And he is regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time – with an amazing three inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Eric Clapton spent his early music days busking around the streets of Kingston and was asked to join The Yardbirds in 1963.
And it was here he earned the nickname ‘Slowhand’ – when he broke a guitar string on stage he would replace it himself, while the audience would slowly clap until he repaired it.
He also acquired another popular nickname – ‘God’ – thanks to a gushing fan who graffitied the slogan on a wall at Islington underground station.
The blues-influenced legend featured in numerous bands and began his solo career in the seventies – and in 1983 he was presented the Silver Clef Award from Princess Michael of Kent for outstanding contribution to British music.
Now you can get your hands on ‘God’s’ Ferrari – with just 17,000 miles on the clock and with a full service history – for £56,995. Source: autotrader.co.uk
