When it was current, the Ferrari 456 was the fastest production four-seater in the world. Powered by what was essentially a detuned version of the engine powering the 550 and 575, the new 5.5-litre V12 unleashed no less than 442 bhp and, except for the F40, the 456 was the most powerful road car developed by Ferrari up to that point.

Pininfarina worked its magic on the 456 to create a subtly beautiful and curvaceous body contrasting with the hard edges of its predecessor. Aerodynamically efficient, the 456 remained stable up to its maximum speed of around 190 mph. Acclaimed on its debut, the 456's styling has not dated and is a tribute to Pininfarina's vision in creating one of the most beautiful vehicle designs of modern times. The 'Modificata' 456 M appeared in 1998, starting with chassis number 109589 and incorporated a number of changes including improvements to the aerodynamics and cooling, and the interior, still featuring Connolly Leather, was freshened up with new seats and other detailing.

A considerable number of Ferrari drivers enjoy changing gear manually, which is fortunate as this desirable 456GT features just such a transmission. Completed in sparkling Grigio Titanio in October 2002 and first registered on 18th August 2003, the odometer reading was 8,800 kilometres when the Ferrari was purchased by the previous owner from British & Sportscars of Overijse, Belgium in 2008. The indicated mileage is now 11,900 (kms) and the car is presented in original condition commensurate with the mileage.

Accompanying this lovely Ferrari are its 'Ferrari Certificate of Conformity'; Bill of Sale (2008); sundry maintenance invoices; original Belgian Technical Control (2013) and curent UK Registration V5C. The 456 is a very quick and competent GT and considerably more practical than its two-seat brethren. The two rear seats, although large enough for adults, are even better suited as the perfect spot for a couple of cases of '96 Barolo, on the way home from your Wine Merchants!
