The UK classic car market leaders are proud to be offering this very attractive car with an interesting background.
With such a fantastic provenance, individual specification and confirmed for the sale is this 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia DCT. This beautiful Ferrari 458 that was ordered new by well-known Ferrari collector and celebrity Chris Evans in the very rare colour of Rosso Vinaccia with a Grigio Chiaro interior. It was purchased by a well-respected customer of Silverstone Auctions at one of their NEC Classic Motor Show Auctions and he has enjoyed it for approximately 2,500 miles increasing the mileage to just 16,124 miles. This represents a fantastic opportunity to own a very special Ferrari 458 Italia at a guide that looks irresistible.
