2003 FERRARI 575M MARANELLO - FIORANO HANDLING PACK

KEY FACTS

• Equipped with the sought-after Fiorano Handling package, this flagship Italian GT is presented in excellent condition and with low mileage from new.
• Under the bonnet is the 5.7-litre naturally aspirated V12, which produces 508bhp and drives the rear wheels via the ‘F1’ six-speed automated manual transmission.
• The odometer displays just 25,391 miles.
• An original UK-delivered, right-hand drive example.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• This 575M Maranello is finished in the timeless colour combination of Argento Nurburgring with Blu Scuro leather upholstery.
• Notably, it is equipped with the transformative Fiorano Handling package, which comprises lower and stiffer springs, a thicker anti-roll bar, uprated brake pads and adjustments to the wheel geometry.
• Additional factory-fitted equipment includes the high-power stereo and subwoofer, while the roll hoop, dashboard, steering wheel and rear shelf are all trimmed in matching Blu Scuro leather.
• This 575M rides on the optional set of 19-inch ‘modular’ alloy wheels, which frame the car’s bright red brake callipers and are in great shape.
• The car will be accompanied by all of its original handbooks, as well as its stamped service book, tan leather document wallet and full original tool kit.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• The Argento Nurburgring paintwork has been refreshed in the past, and is in excellent condition, with only a few minor blemishes, including some typical light ‘road rash’ at the bottoms of the wheel arches.
• Inside, the cabin presents particularly well, and while there are some minor creases on the seat bolsters, this is in line with the car’s use.
• As in many Ferraris of this era, the leather covering the passenger airbag panel is coming away from its backing and will need to be fixed back in place; however, the typically ‘sticky’ button surfaces have already been rectified.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical issues with the vehicle, and there are no warning lights showing on the dashboard.
• The car’s last MOT test was conducted on 14 May 2020 at 24,971 miles, resulting in a clean, first-time pass. A fresh MOT will be carried out prior to handover to the next owner.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This 575M’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out in February 2021 at 25,337 miles, when independent Ferrari specialist Bell Sport & Classic performed a general service including a cambelt change, as well as addressing the cabin’s ‘sticky’ switches.
• Prior to this, the car was serviced by official Ferrari dealer Stratstone, who performed a minor service in November 2018 at 23,644 miles and replaced the cambelts in November 2017 at 23,505 miles.
