It carries its original UK Registration number and has the original Maranello Documents although not a Full Service History unfortunately. The car was originally Azzuro Hyperion with Dark Blue Leather according to the factory records. The car is bodily scruffy with a few little bubbles here and there. but the interior is superb and it carries a new MOT with no advisories. This model is. for sure. the one to go for. the 5 Speed manual gearbox makes this a real sports car and with its triple rear lights and knock off wheels. an early 365 is instantly differentiated from the later 400 series. We love these car here and will be very sorry to see this go. probably the last time we will have one in this price bracket.
