" The Ferrari 250 GT Drogo is a one-name automotive celebrity: The Breadvan. British journalists gave the Ferrari its monicker, mocking the odd-looking car that was born out of a dispute between Ferrari and one of its best customers. At the start of the 1960&amp;#039;s, Enzo Ferrari felt Count Giovanni Volpi di Misurata was guilty of being too friendly with disgruntled former Scuderia designers Giotto Bizzarrini and Carlo Chiti. When, in 1962, Volpi tried to order one of the then-new 250 GTOs for his Scuderia Serenissima racing team, Il Commendatore refused to sell. But Volpi was holding two aces. Bizzarrini and Chiti had been the lead designers for the 250 GTO project before they left Maranello, and the Venetian count tasked them with producing a car &amp;quot;better than the GTO.&amp;quot; Legend has it it took just over two weeks for Bizzarrini, Chiti and coachbuilder Piero Drogo to come up with the unusual-looking racer using an older 1961 alloy-chassis 250 GT SWB/C. Its distinctive looks were dictated by a search for lower drag. Bizzarrini moved the engine further back and lower to the ground than on the GTO, and the result was a car that, despite the disadvantage of a four speed gearbox compared to the GTO&amp;#039;s 5 speed, was faster and handled better. The Breadvan made its competition debut at Le Mans in 1962, but did not have a stellar competition career. It did have a colorful history, including a high speed chase with French police while driven by infamous playboy Gunther Sachs through St. Tropez. After numerous owners on both sides of the Atlantic, the Breadvan is now cared for by classic car dealer Klaus Werner, whose son Maximilian regularly works over the 250 GT at historic races like the N\u00FCrburgring Oldtimer Grand Prix. Better than a GTO? Perhaps, but with that 3-liter V12 screaming gloriously, the car&amp;#039;s definitively better than your average bakery vehicle.      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
