The public are encouraged to take pictures and send them to Ferrari for a chance for them to feature in the 70th anniversary collage.
The cars will arrive at 2pm and will leave Gunwharf at 4.30 pm to continue their tour of the UK.
The anniversary celebrations started in the manufacturer’s home town of Maranello and the festivities have spread across the world.

Electrification seems to be the future of Ferrari with talk of all cars being hybrid in 2019 in an effort to ‘cut emissions and fuel consumption’, chief executive Sergio Marchionne told Reuters last year.
He said the move would ‘yield additional performance’ and excite any car enthusiast with the prospect of a more powerful supercar.
