Work attributed to Hyginus de Stellis, Latin polygrapher (ca. 64 BC-17 AD), born in the Iberian Peninsula, according to some, or in Alexandria, according to others, a friend of Seneca, responsible for the Palatine library in Rome. His biography was transmitted to us by Suetonius. The princeps edition was printed in Venice in 1475, curiously with blank spaces for the illustrations that never made it to print. The work went through at least four editions in the 15th century.

Fast, attractive, manual six-speed Grand Tourer in a stylish Blue Swaters Metallic over gorgeous tan leather.Produced from 1992 until 2003, the Ferrari 456 and later 456 M are front-engined 'Grand Tourers' in true Ferrari tradition and were an overdue replacement for the outdated, front-engined 412 which had been the company's premium four-seat V12 car for many years. The name '456' refers to the fact that each cylinder displaces 456 cubic centimetres and this was the last Ferrari to use this naming convention. Despite its supercar performance, 436bhp, 0-60mph in 5.2 seconds, and a top speed of 188mph, the 456 has a relatively unstressed engine which has proven to be a very reliable unit. Its looks are smooth and understated, and distinctive external features include a small grille with fog lights on the outside, bonnet-mounted air scoops (removed on the 456M), and pop-up headlights, making this the last Ferrari to do so. The model was warmly received by press and enthusiasts alike, and although not produced in large numbers was always gently in demand by 'silver-haired' Ferrari owners before the 456M was eventually replaced in 2004 by the 612 Scaglietti.Finished in the rare colour combination of Blu Swaters Metallic with tan leather, this front-engine, V12 manual gearbox, Grand Tourer is a very useable example. Initially supplied to European specification, it was imported into the UK in 2017 with an odometer reading of just 95,874km (59,573 miles). In November 2021, it was subject to a comprehensive service at a cost of £8,567 with Ferrari specialists Stradale Italia, and this work included replacing the cambelts, auxiliary drive belt, air-conditioning belt, tensioners, engine oil and filter. It also included spark plugs, brake fluid, wiper blades, air flow meter, headlamp motor, an engine cooling system flush and antifreeze required as a reconditioned radiator had been fitted. The water pump was replaced at the same time together with a refurbished alternator, re-gassed air conditioning and screen washer system. The 456 was the final Ferrari to offer classic ‘pop-up’ headlamps and overall the Pininfarina-styled coachwork seems to become more attractive as time moves on, subtle and stylish yet still with that timeless Ferrari sense of purpose. The 456 GT is a connoisseur's Ferrari, a gentleman’s express, especially with three pedals, and when the time comes to re-offer this European example, a global left-hand drive market awaits.

Lot 706
On offer from 35 years of private ownership with over £120,000 spent since 1987. One of just 29 UK-supplied Boxers known to still exist and surely one of the best.By the dawn of the 1970s, it had become clear that Ferrari's front-engined, Daytona replacement would have to position the engine behind the driver in order to remain at the forefront of the supercar market. The Miura was selling well, Maserati had just introduced the mid-engined Bora and even the cut-price De Tomaso Pantera offered an exotic badge and layout for less well-heeled mortals.Despite the fact that replacing the Daytona, long regarded as the ultimate Grand Tourer, seemed an impossible feat, the all-new 365 GT4/BB appeared on the world stage at the 1971 Turin Motor Show and received a rapturous reception. With streamlined, low and extremely aggressive lines, it was the first production Ferrari to be fitted with the boxer-type 12-cylinder engine derived from the F1 unit. The technical approach taken was completely different from that adopted on all other Ferrari models produced so far, and the architecture was not that of the classic front-engined V12s who's longitudinally-mounted engine featured opposing cylinder banks. The two Bs stand for Berlinetta Boxer and the 'Boxer' reference was derived from the fact that the cylinder banks form an angle of 180 degrees, producing an engine with a flat, rectangular shape enabling the cars centre of gravity to be lowered. With the BB, close attention was also paid to the transmission, with the gearbox positioned under the engine next to the oil sump. From a technical standpoint, this solution rendered design and construction considerably more complex and consequently, the gestation period for this model took longer than usual, however, it was definitely worth the wait.Engine displacement was 4400cc, with 380bhp and a top speed of around 180mph and these outstanding levels of performance led the 365 GT4 BB to be crowned the fastest car in the world when it was unveiled. The tubular steel spaceframe chassis was reinforced by the addition of integral steel panels around the cockpit section, making it virtually a 'monocoque' construction and the wedge shape of the nose appears to owe quite a lot to the 1968 Pininfarina P6 concept car. The lower section of the nose featured a full-width aluminium egg-crate radiator grille, from the top edge of which an indent line ran around the body perimeter, visually creating an upper and lower half and rendering it even more streamlined. This separation was emphasised by the two-tone paint: satin black on the lower part, and the chosen body colour on the upper part. The contrast gave the car a super sporty, modern look, pre-empting a trend that is still in vogue today.Between 1973 and 1976, just 387 Boxer 365s were produced with just 88 in right-hand drive and only 58 of those destined for the UK. This fabulous example is one of just 29 that remain taxed/SORN’d in the UK today. Ordered new by Maranello Concessionaires Ltd for their Chairman, Colonel Ronnie Hoare, on 2nd May 1973 to be used as their official demonstrator, the car was specified in Blue Metallic Dino 106-A-72 with a beige interior, as can be seen on the copies of the original invoice and delivery sheets on file. This would appear to be the 40th 365 GT4 BB produced and was the second of the 58 365 GT4 BBs officially delivered to the UK. Naturally, as Maranello’s new model, it featured in numerous magazines including Motoring News on 14th July 1974, Motorsport September in 1974, Autocar on 5th October 1974 and Motorsport in June 1975.Pleasingly, the car’s history file has a detailed summary of its ownership history including when it was bought and sold, to whom and where it was located. It’s believed to have been resprayed in the late 1970s in Rosso Corsa and then been exported to a private individual in Oklahoma in 1983. He subsequently moved to California before moving back to Texas, hence its Texas Certificate of Title dated 1985. They spent $15,000 with Bob Smith Coachworks in Texas before selling the car in 1987 to Roy Fish of Daytona Imports who shipped the car back to the UK and sold it to an individual in Surrey. Having only owned the car for a matter of weeks, the Boxer was sold to our vendor in December of 1987, and it has remained in his care ever since.Passionately owned for 35 years, this matching-numbers Boxer is surely one of the best. The massively detailed lever-arch history file contains every quote and invoice during our vendor’s ownership in addition to detailed history from previous ownership. From invoices within the file, it appears that the car has benefitted from over £120,000 spent with various marque specialists since 1987 including Maranello Concessionaires, Prestige Coachworks and Maranello Surrey, on its maintenance, engine rebuilds and restoration. The Ferrari had covered around 31,000 miles at the time of our vendor’s purchase and the current mileage is still only just over 53,000, however, they feel that they have done everything they want to do with the car including road trips and the occasional hill-climb/timed sprint when their main competition car was in need of work.As mentioned before, the car’s history file is substantial and potential buyers might want to invest an hour or so going through it. We picked out the following:The engine was rebuilt/refreshed by MCL in 1990 at a cost of £7,000During 2006/7, Prestige Restoration carried out a substantial cosmetic and mechanical restoration including new sills with new metal fabricated and welded in, rust work sorted on front and rear clamshells, engine rebuild with all new belts, all of the necessary parts resprayed including the lower half of the car in the correct satin black, the wheels in silver, the engine resprayed in the correct colours, front and rear clamshells and the roofFrom 2010 to 2020, the Boxer was maintained and serviced by NBA Sportscars in Surrey with invoices totalling over £10,000QV London changed the cambelt and performed a major service in 2015 at a cost of £4,149Most recently, marque specialists Rardley Motors Ltd performed an engine out major service in June 2021 including cambelts, auxillary belts and related tensioners as well as general maintenance at a cost of £5,757The file contains every MOT Certificate from our vendors ownership except for 2003 and 2006/2007 when its restoration was being undertaken.The car retains its original under-hood toolbox with original tools and spares, original space-saver spare wheel, original jack bag with jack, original owner's manual fabric case with manual and radio information, and two sets of keys one with the original Ferrari key fob.In generally excellent condition, this UK-supplied, right-hand drive, matching numbers 365 GT4 BB is a fine example of one of the last truly hand-built Ferraris and would be a great addition to any collection of important Ferraris. Succeeded by the heavier, less powerful and more abundant 512 BB, the 365 BB remains the connoisseur's choice with the market continuing to confirm this.SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 365 GT4 BBYear: 1974Chassis Number: 17625Registration Number: TNR 595MTransmission: ManualEngine Number: 17625Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 53000 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Tan LeatherClick here for more details and images

A UK-supplied manual F355 in striking Giallo Fly Yellow with an enviable service history.The Ferrari F355 is now considered a modern classic, so beautiful, so well-engineered and so well received that it marked the beginning of the end of the old-guard Ferraristi' philosophy that the only ‘real’ Ferraris were ones with 12-cylinder engines. The F355 Berlinetta burst onto the world stage in the Spring of 1994, with the Targa GTS and Spider following in 1995. The new car shared almost exactly the same dimensions as its predecessor, the 348, yet it was virtually a new car, as its flowing coachwork indicated. Many hours of wind tunnel testing influenced the harmonious shape which incorporated an F1-style flat bottom with channelled airflow generating enough downforce to offset any lift.The F355's name is derived from its 3.5-litre V8 engine and five valves per cylinder - as denoted by the Cinquevalvole inscription on the rocker covers, and this longitudinally mounted power unit generates an impressive 374bhp at a spine-tingling 8250rpm. The con-rods are titanium alloy, the clutch is housed in magnesium alloy and the Bilstein shock absorbers use electronic sensors to provide active damping. In 1994, the Ferrari F355 was a technological tour de force. Around Ferrari's 1.86-mile Fiorano test track, the F355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12-cylinder, 512 TR and that level of performance, combined with its sensational shape, ensured its success on the world stage.This delightful example is a right-hand drive, UK-supplied, manual gearbox car that was first registered here on 15th August 1997 and is finished in Giallo Fly (yellow) with a Nero (black) leather interior. The current mileage is only 34,974, supported by an excellent service/maintenance history, with our vendor alone (since 2018) spending £24,600, always ensuring it has had annual servicing (including belts), maintaining its splendid condition. Indeed, it has just had a full service and an MOT ready for sale. The car was expertly repainted (in Giallo Fly, its original colour) in 2017 and is accompanied by lots of invoices.The registration numbers 'ELL501T' & 'P1OPK' will not accompany the car.SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: F355 SPYDER MANUALYear: 1997Chassis Number: ZFFXR48C000109656Registration Number: TBATransmission: Manual Engine Number: 47161 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 34974 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Nero Click here for more details and images

Competitive F355 Challenge car from long-term storage at a very realistic guide.In 1995, Ferrari introduced a race-ready F355 Challenge model designed for use specifically in the Ferrari Challenge Series. The bespoke model was created by starting with a standard Ferrari F355 Berlinetta and modifying it with a $30,000 factory-to-dealer supplied kit. Initially in 1995, the cars were supplied with factory fitted cage mounts and without carpets, however, each year, the cars arrived with more and more factory fitted race parts, culminating in 1998 with full-evolution cars which were supplied as virtually complete race cars.The factory modifications were more substantial than the 348 Challenge and the engine, gearbox and shock-absorbers were sealed with special tags to prevent unauthorised alterations. The factory fitted modifications included a roll-cage, racing bucket seats, manual radiator fan control and upgraded fans, competition steering wheel, competition clutch, upgraded 14" Brembo brakes (carried over from the F40), solid suspension bushes, competition springs and brake cooling ducts amongst a number of other detail changes from the base car. The F355 'Challenge' shares the same engine and physical dimensions as the original car and 108 cars in total were produced, all with the six-speed manual transmissionOffered here is one of the original factory Ferrari F355 Challenge cars finished in Rosso Corsa. The first owner was Eberhard Jung who competed in the Ferrari F355 Challenge in Europe in 1999. It was sold to Mathias Korff who also competed in the Challenge in 2000 prior to being imported to the UK in 2001 and used in competition by Witt Gamski. It was subsequently purchased by our vendor in 2007 and used by him that year in the Ferrari Open Challenge and prepared by renowned Ferrari Specialist Paul Witts. The Ferrari was then put into long-term storage but has been run since, however, it would be advisable to go through basic recommissioning before a start up.The registration number R1 REH does not accompany the car.Please note- there are two sets of spare wheels and tyres available by separate negotiation.SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: F355 CHALLENGEYear: 1998Chassis Number: ZFFXR41BOOO111648Registration Number: T251 LJWTransmission: ManualDrive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 28920 KMMake: LHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images

Initially purchased through Nigel Mansell Sports Cars Ltd, this smart 328 GTS has led a sheltered life covering a mere 2,760 miles from new.The Ferrari 328 GTS and GTB made their worldwide debut at the 1985 Frankfurt Motor Show and its styling was an obvious evolution of the Ferrari 308 Series, however, Pininfarina's Leonardo Fioravanti had softened his previous design and it still remained a popular choice with Ferrari aficionados. Two variants of this mid-engine sportscar were offered, the Gran Turismo Berlinetta Coupé and the Gran Turismo Spider which featured a removable Targa top, offering an exhilarating open-air driving experience and affording the driver and their fortunate passenger unbridled access to the unmistakable howl of the dry-sump Ferrari V8.Under the engine cover is the same transversely-mounted, fuel-injected V8 from the Ferrari 308 Quattrovalvole, with an increase in displacement. By increasing both bore and stroke, the quattrovalvole's capacity was raised to 3,186cc which, together with a higher compression ratio, revised pistons and an improved Marelli engine management system, lifted maximum power to 270bhp at 7,000rpm. Top speed was raised to within a whisker of 160mph (258km/h) and 60mph arrived from a standing start in 5.5 seconds.This superb, right-hand drive 328GTS Targa-topped convertible was supplied by Nigel Mansell Sports Cars in the Isle of Man to a Mr Roy Dowle in March 1990 at a cost of £97,500, which included £1,995 worth of Ferrari luggage, and the original invoice is in the car's history file. Initially registered, G328 AJT, its Manx registration was GMN 328 for 19 years before subsequently returning to its UK registration in July 2011 when it was purchased by our vendor. Having been dry stored for a considerable number of years, it has covered a mere 2,670 miles from new and is described as in generally good condition, although in need of mechanical recommissioning simply because it's spent some time off the road. This classic Ferrari V8-engined sports car has an understandably small history file, containing Isle of Man registration and export documents, its Ferrari leather-bound book pack containing Ferrari pre-owned booklets, owners manual, service booklet and dealership network booklet.A UK-supplied, right-hand drive, GTS is a rare find at this tiny mileage and has been guided to allow for the appropriate engine service to return to manufacturers parameters.SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 328 GTSYear: 1989Chassis Number: ZFFWA20C000082244Registration Number: G328 AJTTransmission: ManualEngine Number: 18633Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 2670 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Cream LeatherClick here for more details and images
