Harry Potter star Tom Felton, 34, caught speeding in £200,000 limited edition Ferrari

The 34-year-old clocked 46mph in a 40mph zone along the M4 in Brentford while behind the wheel of his Ferrari 488 Spider.

Court documents show police spotted Felton breaking the limit at 12.46am on June 25, the Evening Standard reports.

He is understood to have splashed out on the flashy motor after finishing the final instalment of the Harry Potter franchise, based on the book series by JK Rowling, in 2011.

Known for his taste for fast cars, Felton also turned up to the 20th anniversary reunion in a £180,000 Lamborghini Urus.

Lavender Hill magistrates’ court heard that Felton confirmed he was the driver at the time of the M4 incident and that his limited edition 2009 vehicle was worth more than £200,000.

He did not enter a plea or offering any mitigation for breaking the speed limit and landed three points on his licence.

Felton was also ordered to pay a £220 fine and £124 in court costs and fees at a short hearing on January 5.


He shot to fame as Harry’s white-haired nemesis in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone at the age of 13.

Felton has since gone on to star in sci-fi film Rise of the Planet of the Apes, as well as well as several indie movies.

He suffered a health scare in September 2021 when he collapsed on the Ryder Cup golf course.

The actor was stretchered off at the 18th hole while playing in a celebrity match.
