    One-Off Ferrari Breadvan Hommage Revealed Using 550 Maranello

    Thanks to coachbuilder Niels van Roij Design, the spirit of the 1962 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Breadvan is alive with this one-off tribute.

    As you can see in the images included, the one-off Ferrari sports a boxy rear end to give the world a radical and retro shooting brake.

    This Breadvan Hommage body was hand-beaten to obtain the final shape harkening back to the Le Mans racer of the early 1960s when it was dubbed the “La Camionnette” (little truck) or “Breadvan.”

    Up front you will notice some similarities too with the dual air vents molded after those of the original Breadvan.

    As you will see above, the original had six Weber carburetors piercing through the hood while being protected by a plastic cover. This 550 Maranello version attempts to copy that feature with a cutout in the hood and a clear bubble fitted.

    Has anything remained from the original car? Just the windscreen according to the coachbuilder. The entire bodywork after the side windows was made from a single aluminum shell so that there wouldn’t be a shut line.

    The naturally-aspirated 5.5-litre V12 has not been touched which means it develops 478 hp (346 kW) and 568 Nm (419 lb-ft) of torque. The wheels have increased in size to a 20-inch, while the bespoke Koni shocks are adjustable to mirror those of the 1962 Breadvan.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye 😉 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
