Ferrari that won 1965 Le Mans sells for £29 million at auction

A classic Ferrari that won the Le Mans 24-hour race in 1965 has sold for £29 million, making it one of the most expensive Ferraris ever. The 1964 250 LM was auctioned by RM Sotheby’s in Paris. Previously estimated at £21 million, the car competed in three Le Mans and Daytona races before retiring in 1970. It spent 55 years at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum. The 250 LM is notable for being the only privately entered Ferrari to win Le Mans. The record for the most expensive Ferrari remains with a 1963 250 GTO, which sold for £56 million in 2018.
