The 612 Scaglietti was the replacement for the 456 and is larger and more spacious with serious presence, but still displays the deftness of touch of the legendary House of Pininfarina.

As a mark of respect for their decades-long working relationship, Ferrari named the 612 after the legendary Sergio Scaglietti, whose famous design house 'Carrozzeria Scaglietti' was responsible for the look of some of the most stunning coachbuilt Ferraris in the fifties and sixties. The design of the 612 is said to have been inspired by the 1954 Rossellini-Bergman custom 375MM, which was commissioned by film director Roberto Rossellini for his lovely wife, the actress Ingrid Bergman. The model features deep side scallops and large headlights together with a long, sleek silhouette and the result is an imposing, unusual looking car, projecting dynamism and power. This sporty front-engined rear-wheel drive Berlinetta is a paradox Ferrari, being an energetic car to drive, yet also having four full seats for passengers, making it suitable for longer journeys and city use too. A genuine departure from previous GT models, the 612 Scaglietti's transaxle transmission sees the rear-mounted, 6 speed, F1 gearbox working with the limited-slip differential in a shared function and this, combined with the first-ever all-aluminium body in a 12-cylinder Ferrari, makes for fantastic dynamics as well as improved comfort and safety.

The second generation of the 612 was launched in 2008, featuring a number of revisions, and concurrently Ferrari introduced their “One-to-One Personalisation Program”. Aimed at customers who wanted something just that bit more 'special', buyers could fly to the factory in Italy and with the personal assistance of Ferraris Atelier, create a bespoke 612. The One to One cars also featured Ferraris revised dual-plate clutch superfast transmission (which would be seen two years later in the 599), the remarkable 'Electrochromic' roof, a Mannetino steering wheel, 20” Challenge wheels, Sports exhaust and Carbon Ceramic brakes.

Prior to our auction in May, the vendor informs us that Stratstone will service the car and it will be supplied with a fresh MOT. Four seat Ferraris have traditionally been somewhat overlooked as collector's cars, however, this 612 Scaglietti has all the makings of a future classic, an eclectic and historically influenced design, paired with innovative technology and modern elements. Offered at an attractive guide price, this is a true afficianado's car with real appreciation potential.
