Police issued advice to the driver of a $9.5m Ferrari out on a magazine shoot in Oxfordshire this week. 

The Wantage Neighbourhood Police Team were out on patrol at beauty spots conducting patrols to deter vehicle break-ins and other rural crime when they came across the "ultra-rare" car.

The photographers using the 1962 Pininfarina Ferrari for the magazine shoot were advised by police against leaving valuable equipment in their vehicle and were even provided with a ‘Smartwater’ forensic marking kit.
