The Ferrari 365 GT4 2+2 was introduced in 1976 as the successor to the rather larger 365 GT 2+2. With its much sleeker looks the Ferrari 365, also designed by Pininfarina, remained in production with very few styling changes until 1989 and proved to be a great success for the company. The 412 was introduced in 1985 and was a technically much improved and modernised version of the classic design, whilst still retaining a timeless and elegant shape. With a displacement of nearly 5 litres, the V12 engine now produced a healthy 340 bhp and ABS was available for the first time in a Ferrari. The Ferrari 412i is the ultimate version of the 400-series of four-seat Grand Touring cars and remains highly respected for its performance, luxury and ease of operation. Just 574 in total were built, of which 85 were right-hand drive.
Presented in Chiaro Blue with Crema leather interior, this low mileage 1989 example is offered complete with a comprehensive history file containing service and owners books and a number of receipts for maintenance over the years. As the Ferrari 400 Series models at last find their place in the classic car market, this sensibly estimated example is certain to be popular on the day.
Note: The speedo head was replaced at 8,128 miles 4th September 1996, therefore the total mileage is now just over 42,000 miles.
