A Ferrari 330 GT once owned by John Lennon will be auctioned off in Paris on 5 February.

Lennon who, you cry? Why, he's only the world's most recognised bearded Liverpudlian, famous for painting a Rolls in psychedelic livery and, erm, being in a band called ‘The Beatles', or summat.  http://www.topgear.com/uk/photos/john-lennon-ferrari-330-gt-bonhams-auction-2011-01-10

The light-blue 1965 Ferrari 330 GT, immaculately restored to its original condition in the mid 90s, was John's first car after he passed his driving test. Rumour has it, his driving test made headline news; so much so, every luxury car dealership close to his home in Weybridge rocked up with a car on the day, hoping the big man would pick theirs.
