Description

The F512M was the final version of the mighty Testarossa. Introduced in 1994 at the Paris Motor Show with the familiar 5 litre flat-12 longitudinally mounted mid-engine, it produced 446bhp resulting in a 0-60 time of just 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 196mph.

Just 501 were ever produced of these distinctive cars which featured improvements to the exterior (front and rear lights, NACA ducts, bigger brakes etc.), the interior (chrome gear knob, drilled pedals and air con as standard) and the wheels which were now 18 inch diameter with 8 inch wide fronts and 10.5 inch wide rears.

 

This particular left-hand drive 512M was supplied new from Auto Becker Ferrari, Dusseldorf, Germany in January 1995. Finished in the ultimate colour combination of Rosso Red with Nero leather upholstery it stayed in Germany for the first two years of its life, with the supplying dealer servicing the car at 6,255 miles. Then sold to an Italian collector the car has remained in its home country until recently imported to the UK, and is now offered with a NOVA certificate and all taxes paid.

During it's time in Italy it had a sonorous Tubi exhaust fitted which has added to the extraordinary Ferrari flat 12 cylinder exhaust note. The most recent engine out, full belt service was carried out by the main Ferrari dealer, Rossocorsa of Milan, at a cost of 11,000 Euros. It has also had new brake discs and pads front and rear fitted recently.

This original and immaculate Lot is offered with a comprehensive service history, original service books and Ferrari hand pack, 3 sets of keys and a custom indoor cover.
