About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Raced in the Netherlands for two years and subsequently owned by a laundry list of Ferrari collectors. Restored for Ed Niles in the late 70's. Good paint and upholstery. Dirty, scratched right side wheels, especially on the rear. Orderly older restored chassis and engine. Not run in some time and will need recommissioning but carefully and consistently maintained through its recent history.

Market commentary

RM offered this car in Monterey in 2002 where it was in similar condition and bid to $590,000 but not sold. 7.5x that result in sixteen years is a strong move for a privately-raced Mondial, but no more than is reasonable. And it is a seductively pretty car that is eligible for pretty much anything desirable.
