    GTO new delivery July 17 1985. That GTO was still there when they later got their F40 at the Gentry Lane dealership. Both cars were on display in the showroom in 1991 as I recall for an event when the dealer was located on Dupont Street in Toronto. Neither car was registered as street legal in Canada when new...

    Estimate: £1.4 million - 1.6 million or US$ 2.2 million - 2.6 million

    1985 Ferrari 288GTO Berlinetta chassis no. ZFFPA16B000055633

    "Chassis number '55633' was delivered new in Turin, Italy via Symbol Car SpA (Walter Bordese) to its first and only private owner, a resident of Milan and, later, Monaco, who is now aged 86. The original Warranty Card is on file together with service records that show servicing by Ferrari in 1985 and subsequently by a specialist in Milan (on two occasions) while in November 2013 the car was fully re-commissioned by Cavallari (Ferrari Monaco). It possesses a current UK MoT certificate and we are advised that Ferrari Classiche certification was applied or in March 2014 and is expected imminently. The car also comes with Monegasque Carte Grise, its original owner's handbook and all tools."

    The Certificate of Origin for 55633 was issued 8 March 1985. Eleven days later it was registered on plates from Milan.

    Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spider chassis #2871 GT ex-Terzo Dalia, Italy.
    Now in Sicily since many years. Two Ferrari 288 GTO were repainted metallic silvergray by the owner Sam Bardor in Mexico (he was superstitious and had all his Ferraris repainted metallic silvergrey). Yes, Bardor owned two 288 GTO's. 54225 and 56335.
    However, I think the silver 288 GTO in this photo is 55629.

    So if you add in the 12% plus the 20% vat on the 12% which gives an all in premium of 14.4%, then you convert the GBP amounts at the current exchange rate of 1.60, that gives all in estimate of

    $ 2.56m - $ 2.93m

    So is a 29k km 288 now a $2.5m to $3m car?

    I'd say it definitely is north of $ 2.2 M.

    Correct.
    As I said above the silver one in Sicily is not one of the two ex-Bardor cars.

    We should wait for a sale result before we conclude that.

    Having said that, privately, a genuine 2,500-mile GTO can in fact be purchased within that estimate, which now makes it seem very good value.

    Seems like a lot of money but when I bought my 288 a few years ago they were similar money to a Lusso and a 275 GTB/2 and those have both gone up more (with higher production numbers)

    This price increase isn't 288 specific

    The GTO wears silver well. Makes it look a bit teutonic.
