    Does anyone have any information about the 512LM for sale in Melbourne? The ad suggests Phil (FerrariFixer) has worked his magic on the car.
    Best Regards

    Wouldn't think so. Last one I saw (in the USA) was in pieces with what looked to be a pretty serious oil leak, was about to hit the auction block too. Still sold for $US880,000.

    Thanks.

    I know it isn't an LM, but I'm pretty sure that's what the OP is talking about. I only posted the link as I was on the same page whilst reading this thread.

    I love ads that talk of 'original miles/original kilometres'. Begs the question, how many unoriginal miles or kilometres has the car done?

    Greetings

    Original MILES, plus ZFFVA4OCOOO101756 = an English import.

    Whilst I have nothing against a 'C' car (UK) ... I own a 575 with a 'C'. I suspect this car lived its early(?) life on UK salt roads, mine was unsalted HK roads.

    This car would have gone through AUS compliancing (post '89) so check for a compliance plate.

    As for 'original' miles it would have had the speedo changed from miles to Kms. so maybe a recent import??

    No, absolutely not. That car is still around too, though.

    101756 is an amazing car. No rust from its time overseas, owned by ss, a totally over the top anally retentive money no object owner with a level of detail in the engine bay possibly better than a new one. Go for it!

    Be careful buying a 512M here. This car was actually repaired and is getting around the roads today. It isn't any of the cars above I should mention.

    Yup. One door has a shutline gap of about an inch and the other door has a gap of zero......to the extent that both the door and the 1/4 panel have no paint where they meet. Ugly. Very, very ugly !!

    And the chassis number is...........well, it's obvious when you see it how bad it looks!

    Should it get one? No. Could it get one? Yes.

    As Carl says, when you see the car it is pretty obvious it has had a big one followed by a less than perfect repair.
