Ferrari 512 BB i Classiche certified, Top quality example!!! One of 1984
General description :
The Ferrari 512 BBi is an exceptional car in any version or condition, with only 1,007 built. Taking its current shape, our car is unique. In 2015 we sold this Ferrari 512 BBi to the previous owner. Five years on and 5,000 km further he decided to part exchange the car with ourselves. When we supplied the car to him five years ago it was already in a very good and original condition. Five years later she is in even better shape. In 2015 the car was supplied after fitting a new distribution group. Although he was very happy with his purchase, in 2016 he still saw room for improvement. He took the 512 BBi to Ferrari dealer Erblein in Kassel where it practically underwent a total mechanical overhaul at 32,000 km. Every suspension rubber and engine tube was replaced, the brakes and heater were fully overhauled, it received a new clutch and pressure group, the K-jetronic injection system was re-calibrated, preventatively all gaskets were replaced together with a host of other parts. All in all the bill came to over € 33.000,-.Anecdotally the last owner also suggested completely replacing the exhaust system to improve the car’s looks even more. Erblein however strongly dissuaded him from this course of action as it was not only one of the most authentic 512 BBi’s he had ever seen but, after checking the chassis number also happened to be one of the very last ones produced. Besides hardly any further gain was to be had with a new exhaust system, so the original system was kept. So let us turn to this Ferrari 512 BBi’s authenticity. First of all the car is, of course, fully matching numbers with her original livery. In main the car still has its first coat of “Rosso Corsa” paintwork. The beige leather interior trim is completely original and in very good condition. The car even comes with an extra set of matts in order to preserve the original ones. Following on from this work the time was ripe to start up the Ferrari Classiche certification process. Naturally our 512 BBi sailed through this severe test. The Ferrari Red Book forms part of the extensive documentation. In 2016 the wheels were aslo refurbished, with the Ferrari emblem reapplied. The wheels are as good as new whilst maintaining their authenticity. The bodywork is also completely original with nice and thin, correctly aligned body panels. Underneath this 512 BBi is just as nice and original as on top and naturally totally undamaged and rust-free. In 2019 a slight ball bearing noise was heard. Instead of just replacing the errant bearing, the previous owner decided to replace the whole distribution group together with a number of other preventative part replacements. Erblein again was called in to complete this job to its usual high standard. Total spend? Over € 7.800,-. The documentation accompanying this car is extensive with the Ferrari Red Book, every Erblein Kassel invoice, the original brochures and an USB-stick containing the Ferrari Classiche certification. The long and short of it is that if you are in the market for the very best Ferrari 512 BBi, with correct provenance, mechanically in supreme condition and fully matching numbers, then this is the only car for you!

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right? Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.
Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.
Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.
In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
