    My 550 Maranello had previously been somewhat neglected and was not in the best condition in terms of documentation and maintenance. However, over the past year, I have carried out extensive improvements to its history, documentation, accessories, and overall condition.

    The car was originally sold new in Germany year 2000 and was imported to Estonia in 2008. The first owner in Estonia had a minor accident in 2010 (a collision with a post), resulting in damage to the front fender and sill. The car was then sold, in damaged condition, to a new owner who repaired it and kept it until 2025. When I purchased the car, it was imported to Sweden with the help of a well-known Ferrari specialist, who performed a full mechanical inspection, a major service, and a fuel pump refurbishment.

    The car has now covered approximately 98,000 km and is finished in Nero 1250 with a black leather interior, “250 GTO style shelf,” 575 split wheels, and the Fiorano Handling Package.

    I have managed to recreate the service history through old receipts, and the car now comes with a fully stamped service book. It has also received a thorough cosmetic refresh, including a professional respray, brand-new brakes all around, refurbished 19” BBS split wheels from the 575, and numerous smaller improvements throughout the car.

    What is a good estimate value-wise? I think my car is somewhat rare with the options, the wheels, the color, and in great shape after my renovations but it still has that ”Repaired through insurance company” text in the Carfax.

    Anyone have a rule of thumb? How many % off the price if damages were not structural and proffesionally restored?

    I'll take a guess.

    Big miles, lots of moving around Europe, an accident, and substantial repair work which is highly subjective; some may say it's perfect, others may say it needs to be redone at higher standards to make it perfect. While there are records, the degree of quality and expertise to which maintenance was done and parts used to do it could also be questioned depending on where the car was at any time. Add to that the knowledge that this car was worth very, very little - before modern classics started to appreciate - and that typically results in less-appetite to invest in the best, proactive maintenance protocol.

    My guess is $100K USD +/- $20K. Your wheels are worth a lot of money, so if you are going to sell the car, I would suggest putting on stock 550 five-spokes and selling the 575 modulars separately as you will not achieve the full value otherwise.

    Thanks for your answer, just to clarify:
    Serviced at Ferrari dealerships up to approx 60.000 KM during its time in Germany, thereafter at Porsche specialist in Tallin and lastly at a Ferrari Specialist in Sweden so the maintenence has been good and the drivetrain is in good shape. And getting it to good shape has been done in help/consultation with Ferrari expert workshop and possibly one of Swedens best painter. So the quality of repairs is high. And in this stage the car is in a much better overall shape than most Maranellos I see as it is thoroughly renovated in and out.
