The car was owned by Ferrari for approx five years during which they covered less a thousand miles. The colours are Ferrari colours with the blue being the same as the car driven to victory by Sir Stirling Moss in the fifties. Since then, it has had three private owners, with all services being completed either by Caterham or motorsport specialists.
I've owned the car since last spring and last summer had a complete service carried out by Noble Motorsport, approx 1200 miles ago. This included cam belt & pulleys, coolant, oil, brake fluid and full nut & bolt check. I've also replaced the gearbox and diff oils.
New MOT with six months tax.
The car is a great fast road spec, particularly with the six speed 'box, but is very torquey and susrprisingly comfortable with compliant suspension.

I'm selling it as I always wanted one and now I want another FF - I can't have both !

Offers invited over £13,000

Where do you go after one of these . . . ?
