Hugh Grant, the beloved British actor known for his wit and charm, once again proved why he's a fan favourite during a recent encounter in London's upscale Mayfair district.
The 63-year-old Notting Hill star was spotted outside a restaurant with his stunning £925,000 Ferrari when an excited passerby approached him about the luxury vehicle.
In a moment that delighted onlookers, Grant good-naturedly allowed the stranger to start the powerful engine of his rare Ferrari Monza SP2 - a car so exclusive only 499 exist worldwide.
A Class Act from a British Icon
Eyewitnesses described how Grant, dressed casually in a blue jumper and jeans, happily engaged with the admirer who was clearly thrilled by the supercar. The actor's willingness to share the experience with a fan has been widely praised on social media, with many calling it "typically Hugh" behaviour.
"He could have easily brushed the person off," one fan commented, "but instead he made their day. That's why we love him."
The Rare Ferrari That Turned Heads
Grant's automotive choice is as exclusive as they come. The Ferrari Monza SP2 is part of the Italian marque's limited edition "Icona" series, featuring:
- A roaring V12 engine producing 810 horsepower
- Striking barchetta-style open-top design
- 0-60mph acceleration in just 2.9 seconds
- Handcrafted details throughout
The actor's down-to-earth interaction, despite owning such an extraordinary machine, has only added to his reputation as one of Britain's most likeable stars.
