The Ferrari Testarossa was produced from 1984 as the successor to the legendary Ferrari 512 BB Series mid-engine sports car. With its 180° V 12 engine (despite the name Berlinetta Boxer it does not have a true boxer engine) the technical design is evolutionary rather than revolutionary, but the design of the coachwork certainly caused quite a stir! The name Testarossa is a reminder of the very successful Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa front engine racers from the 1950s and early 60s, whose valve covers traditionally were painted red. The coachwork of the Testarossa was designed by Pininfarina and assembled at Scaglietti in Modena. Breaking with tradition, it was both innovative and sensational! The large side air streaks (actually a legal requirement since such large openings to the side-mounted radiators were not allowed), often copied by other manufacturers, immediately became the defining design element of the Testarossa. The example offered is a Swiss delivery and was handed over to its first owner, a coachwork specialist from the Zurich area, on the 28th of June 1991 through the Garage Zenith in Sion. Initially he drove the sports car with his own dealer plates and only had it registered on the 1st of September 1991. In 2002 with then 34’000 kilometres clocked, the Testarossa was taken over by his last owner, an entrepreneur from Neuchatel. He was 69 years old at the time and with the Ferrari fulfilled a long-held dream. The Modenese bolide was driven sparingly and most of the time remind stationary in the proud owner’s garage. At the end of 2009, the car was parked for good and not driven for the next 15 years. In April 2025 the sleeping beauty was woken up and carefully recommissioned. A major service including a change of the cambelt was performed, a set of new tyres and a new battery were fitted. With not even 36’000 kilometres driven, most probably only two previous owners and freshly serviced the Ferrari is in good to very good original condition and will be handed over to a new Ferraristo with the most recent Veteran MOT from April 2025.
