I was at the Silverstone Classic the other weekend and this old F1 car was on display.

For fun can anyone tell me what car it is?

I'm stumped. The nearest I can find is a late-94 412 T1B. The wings look about right. But the pointy nose and the sloped tops of the sidepods don't.

Um, Ivan Capelli's 1992 Ferrari? ... Or... Another car painted in a Ferrari livery!

That pointy nose is hard to tell without looking it up. It looks like a fairly modern car (early 90s). Can't be '95 cos it had a low nose, sure the '94 one looks different, not '93 unless the livery is different, as that had more white. Unless it's from 1991. It doesn't look like 1990 or earlier, cos the number is 28.

It was billed as the 1994 Arrows for some reason painted up as a Ferrari

*throws arms up* Who would have thought it!!

Maybe someone should have a Ferrari painted up as an Arrows.

Is it "Alice the Adorable"? There was Kate, Kate's Dirty Sister, Kinky Kylie, Abbey, Eva...

This thread is called "Name that Car". Does it need a name or has it got one?

That's bloody sacrilege that is! The person who did this should be beaten about the head and neck until dead!

Harsh.... lol

I agree though, it is never right to change livery of a car to a rival.

I also hated seeing the 1994 Jordan painted in this business livery
