1989 Ferrari 412 Auto - 31.000 miles only

The 412 is one of the most beautiful coupes ever offered by Ferrari and also one of the nicest to drive too

When finished with Blue Chiaro with Crema interior, surely you hit the jack pot!

Ferrari thought so, as this particular car was used to show off the elegant lines of the 412 at the London Motor Show at Earls Court

She has a super low mileage, with a very thick history folder and more than immaculate condition in every area too

We have owned this car on 3 occasions, and are so happy to have her back with us again

We have used her over the summer period and she has been, simply, a joy, having run her in after her full engine rebuild (the head gaskets were required, and whilst there the owner thought, let's go the whole way

Why not, it's less expensive than servicing his jet !

Anyhow, as you can see, expense is not an and she is in superb condition, having just had her maiden service after the build

Everything works, whilst the interior & exterior are in immaculate condition

Superb performance from the Columbo designed engine (no cam belts need to be changed) using the familiar Ferrari V12 lay out

Capacity was upped from the previous models, now with 4942cc giving 340bhp & a similar torque output of 333 lb /ft - all of which equates to a very balanced power delivery all through the rev range

Performance was more than acceptable for a full 4 seat Grand Tourer, with 60mph coming up in the mid 6 second bracket and a top speed of over 150mph

Only 54 UK RHD 412 were registered here and this makes them a serious contender for the last under valued Ferrari on the block

We love her
