Ferrari F40 – #84036

Mit mückenloser Geschichte

Klar ist das so ein bisschen eine Sensation: Ein F40 mit nur einem Besitzer und nur gerade 360 Kilometer auf dem Tacho. Also so etwas wie im Neuzustand, unverfurzt und mit mückenloser Geschichte. Gut, irgendwie sind diese 360 Kilometer auf den Tacho gekommen, wahrscheinlich beim Schieben durch die weitläufige Garage des einzigen Besitzers. Die Frage ist aber: Was macht man denn nun mit diesem Fahrzeug? Lässt man es auf seinen steinalten, aber halt originalen Reifen? Stellt man es weiterhin einfach aus, Zeitkapsel für die kommenden Generationen? Oder investiert man ein paar Hundert Franken, damit der F40 wieder fahrbar wird?

Auktion: RM Sotheby’s, Monterey 2025, Schätzpreis 2,4 bis 2,6 Millionen Dollar. Mit diesen Informationen: «This F40 is undoubtedly one of the last examples not only still being with its original owner but also having near delivery mileage. Completing assembly in February 1990, chassis number 84036 was specified as a European-market example with instruments in kilometers. As such, the car was built without catalytic converters and adjustable suspension, making it one of the prized “non-cat, non-adjust” chassis. Hong Seh Motors, then the Ferrari distributor for Southeast Asia, delivered the car to its first and only owner who left it in static storage for 35 years. Under his care, it was kept out of public view and was never driven or even serviced. The car has remained unseen and completely off the radar its entire life. With just 360 kilometers (~224 miles) on the odometer, this Ferrari displays remarkable originality, evident in factory markings and body numbers, including original blue stickers on the wheels (noting the wheel nuts were torqued on the assembly line), original 1989 date-coded tires, and original witness markings on all fittings. Under close examination, it is very clear that this F40 has never been disassembled and remains in incredibly original condition, with significant carbon weave visible throughout the car. While this F40 was not used and kept in storage, please note that it would need significant restoration to be brought back to show-ready condition. Bidders should also note that while it has been cleaned, no attempt has been made to start the car since its emergence and a major service will be required should the next owner wish to drive it. A leak-down test was conducted in advance of the sale to test the integrity of the engine, with readings found to be 2% across all cylinders. Included with the sale are a set of F40 tools and books».
