He is 80 years old, and drives almost every day – even in rainy or cold weather. His car is more than a regular front-wheel-drive hatchback. It’s a supercar. It is a striking red Ferrari F40 John Clower, 80 years old, still loves driving. He really, really loves it. John is happy to put those 472 ponies on the road and it brings him joy.

Meet the 80-Year-Old Who Drives His Ferrari F40.

John is more than a F40 driver. John is an Ferrari enthusiast who has owned 15 to 16 Ferraris in his past. As he explains, he has diversified into Lamborghini, and his son owns a Murcielago SV. John seems to love the Aventador but isn’t particularly happy with its dimensions. “It’s just too large and too wide, I think.” A McLaren is the ultimate supercar collector and enthusiast. John also owns a 675 LT, which was his first vehicle to experience launch control. Watch the video above to have a conversation with John about his cars and other topics. We are confident it is a great conversation.
