Fantastic! Would love to know the story behind it.
edit: Found it!
Ferrari F40 Berlinetta - Motorbase
A little snip:
Chassis number '91502' was delivered new in Germany via the Ferrari dealer Autobecker on 30th June 1992, enjoying three owners before coming into the immediately preceding owner's possession in July 2000. The latter spent circa �85,000 on modifying the car to 3.6-litre 'LM' (Le Mans) specification, this work being undertaken during 2006-2007 by respected Ferrari specialists Euromotor, in Padova, Italy (invoices available). The engine has been prepared to racing specification and the turbocharger's inter-coolers are now independent of the engine's cooling system, offering increased reliability. Running gear has been up-rated appropriately, featuring Bilstein dampers fitted with Eibach springs front and rear complemented by Brembo racing brakes. Wheels are of 17 diameter shod with 235/35 tyres, while other noteworthy features include a computerised dashboard information display, fire extinguishing system and racing seat. The car was purchased by the current owner at Bonhams' Ferrari et les Prestigieuses Italiennes sale at Gstaad in December 2007 (Lot 215) and is offered fresh from recent full servicing in Geneva; cam belts were renewed, brakes serviced, oil changed, etc. and the car performed very satisfactorily when subsequently road-tested. It is being re-offered purely due to lack of use in the vendor's high quality collection but this time freshly serviced and completely 'on the button'. Finished in the rarely seen black livery that endows it with a special charisma, this superb F40 is currently fitted with its race-prepared engine but comes complete with the original unit (which has done only 3,000 kilometres from new) plus the original dashboard, speedometer, seats, owner's service booklet and (cancelled) Swiss registration papers. Swiss taxes have been paid, but if the car is to be re-registered for road use in Switzerland a catalyser-equipped exhaust system must be refitted.
