staging: 1987 Ferrari Mondial 3.2 For Sale

The Appeal

Launched in 1980, the Ferrari Mondial took the transverse V8 engine and most of the mechanicals from the previous Dino 308 GT4, enwrapping it in a striking and modern design by Pininfarina.
Its unique layout, with mid-rear engine and a comfortable cabin with high-quality finishes able to accommodate four passengers, made it extraordinarily capable, comfortable and versatile, an agile grand tourer perfect for long journeys.

In 1985 the new Mondial 3.2 was introduced, with revised aesthetics, aluminium bonnet and boot lid and a more powerful engine.
Along with the Ferrari 328, it was the last thoroughbred from Maranello with a transverse V8 engine, particularly appreciated by enthusiasts for its ease of maintenance.

This attractive Mondial 3.2 appears in very nice shape, with an elegant dark blue paintwork and a sumptuous cabin upholstered in high-quality tan Connolly leather.

The seller informs us that this car has always been kept with the utmost care and garage stored.
It has been registered with the Italian Historic Automotoclub since 2007 and comes with a Certificate of Historical and Collectible Relevance, as well as its original booklets and plates.

The Revisione - MOT has been recently renewed and, according to the seller, this Mondial is in perfect working order, requires no work and is ready to go.
