Firmly placed in Ferrari's history as one of their finest GTs, the 550 Maranello's combination of stylish Pininfarina lines and front mounted 12-cylinder engine meant this car had the potential to become an instant classic, following in the footsteps of its forebear, the 365 GTB/4 "Daytona'. With modern styling cues, a 5.5-litre V12 engine producing around 485bhp and a reported top speed of 199mph, the 550 Maranello was a serious motorcar. A less frenetic power delivery, the six-speed manual box and excellent weight distribution were all factors in the 550 becoming the perfect European Grand Tourer.

Offered here is a 550 Maranello presented in Rosso Corsa with a Tan interior that has remarkably covered just over 9,600 kms from new with its only owner. The condition of this 550 must be seen to be truly appreciated with the gleaming paintwork and superb panel fit. The engine bay and interior present beautifully and one gets a sense that this Ferrari has been treasured and very well cared for by its fastidious owner. Indeed, this car comes from a significant European collection and has therefore been in dry storage whilst not in use, ensuring this V12 GT is truly one of the best we've seen. This special 550 is also supplied with its full tool kit and leather book pack containing all relevant literature.

Front engined V12 manual Ferraris continue to have the renaissance they richly deserve, and this beautifully presented and maintained 550 Maranello opens the door into a very exclusive club filled with these glorious sounding Grand Tourers.
