F1 car (without engine) for Display purposes in Delhi

  • A seemingly original F1 car available for rent. Can be used for showcasing at events, promotions, launches etc.
  • The car is imported from France without engine, and can be checked at Okhla, New Delhi.
  • Rentals start from 10k to 30k per day.
  • Contact Name: Faisal, Orane Design. Email: oranedesign@gmail.com. Ph. No.: 09810002227

The car seems to be a Ferrari F399 ('99 F1 car) but I may be wrong.

Re: F1 car (without engine) for Display purposes in Delhi

My guess is similar car was there at Garuda Mall sometime last year. How different the one displayed here is form the one i spot in Garuda mall, apart form the team and year (This one is 2011 spec car). This one is HRT racing 2011 spec car.

Is this legal? Ferrari F1 might have issues unless this was purchased legally.

I doubt that this is a Ferrari F1 car, Looks more like an F3 or F2 to me. Since when did Ferrari sport a HSBC logo and Michelin tries??

Re: F1 car (without engine) for Display purposes in Delhi

The sad part is that if one of these were put on display with a bunch of logos of companies that have nothing to do with F1, most people wouldn't even know that its a fake. Would be pretty cost effective to have a bunch of these parked in malls across the city rather than actually sponsor a team.

I wouldn't mind a nice replica sitting in my living room either.

It is definitely an F1 car. The dimensions match that of F1. The logos and paint job must have been changed. Also, the tires could have been bought seperately.


On a deeper search effort, I think I have found the original car.
I think its an Arrows A21 from 2000.
