    An FChatter in CT owns one and drives it often, maybe he was out for a long drive...

    Not especially fond of the red line on the side but the fact its RHD makes it massively appealing in an SA context.

    This is 57727.

    I'm happy to amend the description to - An ex-Sultan of Brunei 288 GTO.

    Meanwhile thanks for confirming the chassis number.

    57727 was originally invoiced to a man resident in Apollo, PA/USA. Only thereafter it was repainted black and went to Brunei.

    Marcel,

    Do you have more details about the RHD conversion?
    Who performed the transformation I assume is not so easy?
    When?
    Thanks in advance.

    So today then Ferrari market had gone mad, a 599 GTO has now surpassed a grade 1 f40.
    A 599 GTO has traded at 800k sterling. Makes the F40 seem so underpriced, or am I missing something.

    You should have included the 599 GTO as well.

    I believe it was done by Pininfarina, but I'll defer to Marcel to elaborate

    It made its way to Tumblr from this thread where it was posted first.

    Image by Martyn Goddard, given to me by him in 2008, a worthy re-post, what a great image, thanks for sharing it.

    I don't know exactly but there can't be many, I've only seen images of 3 cars really badly damaged, one of which was supposedly written off, but at these values, its more likely that they will be saved.
