Check out this gorgeous Ferrari Testa Rossa J artwork, costing less than a painted Banksy, at a cool £68,000 (ish).
It's the work of Hedley Studios – formerly The Little Car Company (yup, those guys that made the baby Bentley Blower Jr. and a dinky Aston DB5). It's a 75 per cent scaled reinterpretation, handcrafted from aluminium, and shipped ready to hang from a wall.

With permission from Ferrari itself, the bodywork has been embellished with a genuine Prancing Horse badge, front and rear light lenses and bonnet straps to give the artpiece an extra dollop of authenticity. We're told it took over 300 hours to get that fabulously polished finish.
Founder, Ben Hedley said: 'The Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa is a car steeped in history and magic, and with our stunning wall sculpture, we've aimed to capture the spirit of the original icon's creation. The legends of Maranello that masterminded and crafted the 250 Testa Rossa were meticulous and delicate in their technique, and our team of engineers have emulated this focus and dedication in their hours spent crafting our wonderful Testa Rossa J sculpture.
'A statement piece that simultaneously captures attention and celebrates heritage and automotive greatness, like that of Scaglietti, the sculpture has already been met with resounding enthusiasm from a selection of VIPs that were lucky enough to get a sneak peek.'
Hedley plans to make a limited 19 examples, and customise on request - thusly, expect to pay more.

Maybe it sounds a lot for a car you'll never drive – but hey, at least it's meant to be that way. So, where are you hanging yours?
