Single Ownership From New
Just 9,650 Miles
Recent Major Service With Cambelt Change
This Ferrari 550 Maranello was imported new through Maranello Concessionaires LTD and subsequently delivered via Maranello Sales LTD to a Mr L. Cook in June 2000. It is configured in the stylish and highly sought-after combination of Rosso Corsa over a Crema and Nero upholstered interior. As standard, every 550 was equipped with electric seats, twin airbags, air-conditioning, electric windows, electric mirrors, a high-end audio system with CD player and drilled alloy pedals.
Chassis no. 120045 has remained in the U.K. its entire life, being cherished in the hands of its only custodian who has enjoyed the car conscientiously, accumulating a mere 9,650 miles from new.
In August of 2022, our client requested that we collect the 550 Maranello from long-term storage and offer the car for sale. After conducting an inspection, it was decided that a comprehensive service and mechanical overhaul would be undertaken to ready the car for its next custodian. The 550 Maranello was treated to a major service with cambelt (and tensioners) replacement followed by the renewal of cam cover gaskets, camshaft oil seals, fuel pumps and the all-important coolant hoses in the central engine V. The 550 has also received a new battery and four new tyres.
Chassis no. 120045 retains its original Schedoni leather book pack, service handbook, user’s manual, sales and service organisation book, alarm system instructions, HI-FI system warranty card, HI-FI system operating instructions, Ferrari direct line book and certificate of conformity. Further, the 550 is accompanied by 2 keys, 2 black fobs and original red master fob.
The Ferrari 550 is widely regarded as the ultimate V12 GT car, which boasts astounding levels of performance and versatility, even by today’s ever-increasing standards. Now offered for sale, this 550 Maranello poses an excellent opportunity to purchase a desirably optioned and exceptionally well-presented example, with recently completed no-expense-spared mechanical preparation in our workshops.
