Ferrari for R40k?

[Wes]

Saw this on the gum :fencelook:

"Classic Ferrari for sale. It’s the perfect restoration project. It’s a left hand drive 1976 Ferrari 400. It’s a V12 engine and is red. It’s the 400 automatic and was the family Ferrari in 1976 with 4 spacious seats.

It is accident free. It hasn’t been started in a few years but was in running condition when last started and was driven from the dealer to its current location. It was a project for me to restore but due to time I never got a chance to start.

I’m willing to let her go for R40,000 as it heart breaking watching her sit and not having the time to get her to her glory.

To make arrangements to see her please contact Guy or Dulce on (011)***-****. The ferrari is in Weltevreden Park Roodepoort."

Interesting, there has been a lot of mixed views that it is a "crap" car, with that in mind there was one that fetched R400K last year, immaculate condition though

When it comes to Ferraris and M cars please keep in mind that the most expensive car you can buy is a cheap one.


Engine parts run into multiples of thousands of Rands.

A complete resto on that 400i will knock R500 000 easily.

Just browse some of the parts prices here.
Suggest you wear your seat belt and crash helmet.
