Collecting cars has always been an interesting hobby. For a long time it has been perceived that is only for the wealthy, however there is a very strong affordable classic car market. Unfortunately, some brands elude the classic affordable classic car market. Ferrari is such a brand. People who follow the classic car market over the last decade have seen Ferrari prices escalate into the stratosphere. An affordable Ferrari is out of reach in today's market Except for this last remaining model. While the Mondial has escalated in value, it is still within reach.
The value of a classic car is based on the brand, pedigree, originality, documentation, miles, and of course condition. Such is the case with this unique Mondial convertible. The car the presented here is painted in Oro Chiaro (Gold metallic) with a crime leather interior. Reportedly, only three Mondial's were made for the US in this color. Making this the rarest of all Mondials.
This one owner example is in exceptional condition. Is believed to be all original paint and has always been maintained to the highest standards. Acquired from a large collection, when it's owners originally bought it they drove it frequently and always had it serviced by the Ferrari dealer. It's original service book accompanies the car and has it service stamps up to 30,000 miles.
When we purchased the car it was out of date on it service due to time not miles. We brought the car to well known Ferrari specialist, Tim Stanford who did a thorough inspection of the car. To get this car ready for sale we performed:

So here we present a Ferrari that his been serviced and inspected by one of the most renowned Ferrari technicians in the country. It has a full service, brand-new tires, and a new convertible top. It is completely turnkey and everything in this car works exactly as it should. Even the air-conditioning blows cold and hard. And it is still at an affordable price.
