1953 Ferrari 250 Mille Miglia Berlinetta Coachwork by Pinin Farina
Now, you have a chance to get your own personal 1953 Ferrari 250 Mille Miglia Berlinetta. One of just seventeen 250 MM Berlinettas ever built is being offered for sale by Kidston of Geneva for $4.3 million. This particular model which is up for sale has been extensively refurbished to keep it in running condition.
With coachwork made by Pinin Farina, this car has a long history in racing events. Much of its legendary racing status comes from the fact that French driver Pierre Noblet chose the Ferrari 250 to be his first racing car. After this, Noblet went on to buy some of its successors like the 250 Tour de France, 250 SWB as well as the 250 GTO. It also belonged to Giulio Dubbini, Peter von Mural and Jean-Pierre Slavic, famous car collectors.
This ultra-rare model is presented in pristine condition, with matching numbers, a rebuilt engine, gearbox, clutch, suspension and brakes. The colour chosen for the vehicle also reminds people of the time when it used to rule the racing tracks the world around. It has been painted in its traditional grigio livery. It has been repainted by Pietro Cremonini and it is fully certified by Ferrari Classiche. [Kidston]
