    They had it for sale for A$95,000 a year ago, and it was for sale for NZ$65,000 the year before that. That's the market for you.

    #46725 is ex-Shaun Bealey and was featured in Car Magazine I believe (Aug 1984).

    One of only 9 RHD 400i Series 2 manuals. So it is definitely rare.

    I know you do :)

    Only 9 of the series 2 RHD 400i manuals. That's pretty certain. Series 2 - revised interior, smaller door mirrors, exposed front fog lights, etc.

    Approximately 23 of the series 1 RHD 400i manuals. I say approximately as some conflicting information here - as usual with Ferrari.

    Not quite as cool but still nice to know I have one of the approximately 23 series 1!
    The engine is taking shape, won't be on the road for a while, but all the parts are in!

    About $28,000.

    This Series 2 has the old Series 1 mirrors on it.
    Listing mentions having low miles on it but has an engine rebuild @ a 'monumental expense'!
    I ask:

    1.) Low miles and a rebuild, & no miles listed?? Uh oh :eek:
    2.) They state "the reason for the rebuild was the gas filled valves, of which one failed". Not sure what that means :confused:

    Little known fact that all Shaun Bealey's 400s and 412 came with the larger mirrors - he liked them that way - so it's not a red flag in this case.

    It was advertised with 55,000 km (34,000 miles) in November 2013.

    I'm not a mechanic but agree that it's unusual that an engine rebuild was required at such low mileage.

    Thanks for the promo Simon.
    I still think these are good value compared to other Ferraris, or other equivalent exotics, even at this price. Not buying though.

    You can buy a 550/575 for that money. Its cool when something is rare and high desire. This is rare but a serious 400 nut would have to be out there to pay that cash at this point in time. But maybe in a decade or two it may be worth a lot more like a 330 2+2.
