So when it came to choosing something special for the Auto-design fleet, it could only be an Italian-stallion from the boys at Maranello. The choice was a tricky one - we've previously experienced a silver 308 and a blue 355 convertible, so it was time for something different, something a bit more practical...

Welcome then to our choice, a Ferrari Mondial 3.4T coupe in red, with just 26k and a very cosseted history. Now the T in the title is very important, no turbos here, but a transverse mounted engine for better handling and the larger 3.4 that would go on to power the 348. Only 45 right-hand drive Mondial 3.4T's were imported into the UK, so this is a rare beast indeed and to find one with such a thoroughly documented history and less than 30k on the clock means this car is both rare and useable; especially with a reasonable boot and those rear seats trimmed in cream leather. More updates soon as we use the car to attend events, but in the meantime if you are in the market for a very special car, you could always make us an offer...
