Ferrari 599 2007 GTB Fiorano F1 2dr

Can engineering be art? If there is any car manufacturer with a chance of answering that question with a yes, it is likely Ferrari.If, like us, your heart burns with a flaming passion for cars, then youll undoubtedly say that cars are a living, breathing art form. But for the unlucky ones who dont quite get it, they are just an expensive method of transportation. Whilst that is true, even the most virulently anti car campaigner can spot the beauty in a front engined V12 Ferrari.Whether that is something powered by a Colombo V12, or something from the now justifiably revered Montezemolo era. Take the 599 GTB, for example, which had the unenviable task of replacing the 575 Maranello. In part, some of the 599s beauty is a by product of aerodynamic advancements the flying buttresses produce 160kg of downforce. The developments were not just external for the first time, a Ferrari GT car was built with an aluminium chassis rather than the typical tubular steel frame.Beauty is, of course, in the eye of the beholder. But this 599 GTB, supplied new in March of 2007, is one of the prettiest. Finished in Nero Daytona over a Cuoio interior, it sits on a set of 20 inch monolithic alloy wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport tyres. The wheels hide massive carbon ceramic brakes with bright Ferrari red callipers. The exterior is tasteful and subtle, finished with Scuderia shields.Today, great specification is more important than ever, and this car benefits from the original owner having some excellent taste. Firstly, the car was ordered with Cuoio leather, a shade of tan that has become increasingly desirable, combined with Daytona seats and Nero carpets. The options ticking exercise did not stop there, with optional carbon fibre featuring on the centre console, shift paddles, and dashboard, not to mention the steering wheel, which is also equipped with Formula 1 style shift lights. As a 2007 production year car, the dash wears a celebratory Ferrari 60th anniversary plaque. The dashboard was retrimmed by Kent High Performance Cars in late 2024.The 599 is powered by a 6.0 litre naturally aspirated V12 that produces 612 bhp and 448 lb ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6 speed flappy paddle F1 Superfast transmission. The combination allows the 599 to reach 60 mph faster than you can say Ciao Bella, and will, given enough space, surpass the magic 200 mph barrier.Coming up to two decades on from its release, the 599 has become a more attainable Ferrari, but for many, maintenance and servicing are a prohibitive concern. But with this car, those concerns are eased by having covered just 31,000 miles from new, with 11 owners. The full service records show that it has been lovingly maintained, both within the Ferrari network and with specialists.11/2025 Annual service plus auxiliary belts Kent High Performance Cars07/2024 Annual service at 26,016 miles Kent High Performance Cars04/2023 Annual service at 23,529 miles Kent High Performance Cars05/2022 Annual service at 23,139 miles Kent High Performance Cars07/2021 Annual service at 18,470 miles Kent High Performance Cars07/2020 Annual service at 17,349 miles Stratstone Ferrari03/2019 Annual service at 14,828 miles Stratstone Ferrari01/2018 Annual service at 12,777 miles Meridien Modena01/2017 Annual service at 11,623 miles Meridien Modena01/2016 Annual service at 10,141 miles Graypaul Ferrari01/2015 Annual service at 9,207 miles Graypaul Ferrari11/2013 Annual service at 6,083 miles Maranello Sales Ltd10/2012 Annual service at 5,269 miles Maranello Sales Ltd09/2011 Annual service at 4,155 miles Lancaster Colchester06/2010 Annual service at 700 miles H R Owen Sports Cars03/2009 Annual service at 420 miles H R Owen Sports Cars04/2007 Pre Delivery Inspection H R Owen Sports CarsIf you have made it this far, you can already appreciate the sheer beauty of this 599 GTB.
