The car that gave John Lennon his ticket to ride is to go under the hammer.
The Beatle bought his first vehicle, a 1965 Ferrari 330GT Coupé, on the day he passed his driving test.
It is expected to fetch up to £220,000 ($407,000) at the Bonhams Goodwood Festival of
Speed Sale on July 12.
The car was bought in the month the Beatles recorded Ticket To Ride, written primarily by Lennon, for the 1965 album Help!. The worldwide No 1 was the third of the band's six consecutive US chart-toppers.
The news that Lennon had passed his driving test made headlines across the UK.
