Description
This is a Ferrari 456M GTA RHD finished in Black/ Black leather interior, this example has covered just under 35, 000 miles
Front-mounted four-cam V12, rear transaxle, tubular steel space-frame chassis and all-independent suspension - while making an appearance for the first time were electronically-controlled adaptive suspension and a six-speed gearbox. Essentially a de-tuned version of that powering the 550 and 575, the new 5. 5-litre V12 unleashed no less than 442bhp at a lowly 6, 250rpm yet remained smooth and tractable from idling speed to red-line thanks to its state-of-the-art engine management system. F40 excepted, the 456 was the most powerful road car developed by Ferrari up to that time, yet despite delivering supercar performance this relatively unstressed engine has proven to be very reliable.
As denoted by the ‘M’ model-name suffix, this is a ‘Modificata’ facelifted 456, which features fog lights in the front grille as well as a carbon-fibre bonnet, which was the first commercial automotive application of carbon-fibre. It also features the reprofiled dashboard with circular vents, redesigned seats, and a new stereo.
The car is finished in Black with a Black leather interior, and rides on its original 17-inch five-spoke alloy wheels with Ferrari centre caps. It's specification includes fully electric seats, climate control, and a SONY stereo. Included in the sale is the owner’s book pack, stamped service book, leather toolkit, and two keys.
The car has a few marks in the Paintwork but Nothing major some bubbling along the door tops and Windscreen pillars. Inside, the cabin is in great order. There are no known electrical or mechanical faults.
This lovely example has an strong history file, including all the original book packs, service book and original leather casing
