A rare Ferrari has tripled in value in just eight years after it fetched £4.9m at auction.
The silver LaFerrari Aperta is one of only 210 made as a soft top.
When it was bought in 2017 it cost £1.47m.

It has only had one owner since and they have now made a profit of £3.3m on the hybrid motor.
Its 6.3-litre V-12 engine means it can go a top whack of 217mph.
And it rockets from 0-60mph as quickly as it goes up in price too.
It can do it in a mere 2.4 seconds.
The flash motor can go a quarter of a mile in 9.7 seconds – quicker than a Bugatti Veyron.

The Ferrari has only done 2,442 miles too.
The model is popular with A-Listers like TV chef Gordon Ramsay, actor Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and ex-Spurs player Heung-min Son.
But none of them have the rare convertible.
It was sold by RM Sotheby’s in Zurich, Switzerland, on Saturday (11 Oct), as reported on Whats The Jam.
A spokesperson for the auctioneers said: “One of only 210 examples of the open-top iteration of the LaFerrari hybrid flagship.
