About this car

The 512 BBi was the last of Ferrari's Berlinetta Boxers, with a 4.9-litre flat-12 mounted amidships and Bosch fuel injection replacing the carburettors of the earlier 512 BB. Only 1,007 were built, and this is one of just 42 made in right-hand drive, which makes it a scarce proposition for a UK buyer.

This 1983 car is finished in Rosso Corsa with Crema leather and shows 27,927 miles. It has been looked after by Cotswolds Ferrari specialist Bob Houghton and, by the page's account, has spent most of its life stored indoors, with very little patina on the paintwork.

The original tool kit and the factory space-saver alloy wheel remain with the car. It is fitted with a manual gearbox.
