Jane Fonda’s old vintage Ferrari is for sale for £2million.
The Hollywood icon’s ex-husband, French movie director Roger Vadim, bought it on 15 June 1966.
But later that year, the registration documents for the light blue Ferrari 275 GTB were signed over to Fonda, now 86.

The double Oscar-winning actress’ ownership of the classic sports car increased its popularity.
Actor Steve McQueen and jazz musician Miles Davis were among other celebrities to go on to own one.
The Ferrari – built in 1966, the year late Vadim who died in 2000, aged 70 bought it – can do 167mph.
Fonda owned it for two years until it was sold on again four times.
It has since gone under a full restoration.
But it still has its original chassis, engine and gearbox.
It is now being sold by RM Sotheby’s, as reported on Luxury Auto News.
A spokesperson for the auction house said: “By 1966, both the careers and the relationship of the recently married film director Roger Vadim Plemiannikov and Hollywood starlet Jane Fonda were very much on the rise.
“The pair had met while filming La Ronde in 1963, officially becoming a couple later that year.
“Married in Las Vegas in August of 1965, the pair lived a glamorous trans-Atlantic lifestyle between Vadim’s native France and Southern California.
“Attractive, wealthy, talented, and eager for more success, the pair seemingly lived an idyllic lifestyle that anyone would have been envious of, and that included what they drove.
“Vadim purchased the 275 GTB on offer here, chassis number 08641, on 15 June 1966.
“Later that summer, the registration documents were transferred to Fonda, keeping the same number.”
They added: “The pair kept their 275 GTB for about two-and-a-half-years and during this time, they were photographed with the car frequently, as one would expect for a pair of A-list celebrities.
“In August of 1966, the pair were photographed emerging from the car in Saint-Tropez, Vadim sporting swimming trunks and attracting a crowd of onlookers, clearly starstruck by their celebrity sighting, and perhaps the 275 GTB as well.
“Another colour photo exists in the history file of Fonda in the passenger seat in October of 1968, departing the hospital for the first time with their newborn daughter Vanessa, a much more personal moment.
“In period, the 275 GTB was a favourite of many of the Hollywood jet set and in addition to Fonda and Vadim, 275 GTBs found their way into the garages of other celebrities in period, including Steve McQueen, and Miles Davis who had a 275 GTB/4.”
