Unique features that differentiate between this and subsequent production cars were that the battery is located in the rear of the car, not the front, the Prancing Horse is painted black as opposed to silver, and the underside of the bonnet is finished in red, whereas production cars were black. Finished in Rosso with a Tan interior, this superb example has been stored correctly and used infrequently, as reflected in its incredibly low mileage and superb condition. During its life, the previous owner was a member of the prestigious Automotoclub Storico Italiano, a well-respected car club in Italy. In September 2014, when the mileage was recorded at 2,490km, the car was sent to Toni Auto of Maranello to be serviced.In 2015, the previous owner sent the car back to Toni Auto of Maranellofor a mechanical assessment, and due to the low use over the years, the decision was made to conduct a thorough inspection of all components, replace or refinish where necessary and reassemble. Photographs of this work and the 8,000 invoice are contained within the history file. The'Ferrari Classiche' was also carried out at the same timeby Toni Auto at a cost of 2,580 as shown by the invoice and certificate in the history file.This superb 348tb is supplied with a complete set of official Ferrari luggage including dust covers, jack and a full leather book pack containing all the relevant literature. Also accompanying the car is the supporting Ferrari Classiche Red book. Presented in exceptional conditionthis is a rare, possibly unrepeatable, opportunity to own a 2,500km from new 348tb. Undoubtedlyone of, if not the best surviving pre-production 348 that would be entirely at home in any collection of rare Ferraris.1990 Ferrari 348tb Pre-Productionhttps://youtu.be/zXUSJVlLwBIfalse
