The next 400 on my radar was a nice brown one with carbs and automatic from 1977. It was located at a BMW
dealer in Assen. As it’s a bit of a drive for me I thought it would be better to
call for an appointment. The car was still for sale but parked in a storage
in Groningen, which is even further away. They were willing to transport it to
their location in Assen but due to poor winter weather conditions and my short notice I decided to
leave it for now and make a new appointment after my holiday leave. After my
leave I planned some other visits first. When I was ready to make a new visit I
called them. Unfortunately it happened the car was sold that week and they
were in the middle of the paperwork and preparing shipment. It was sold to a
buyer in Istanbul. Bummer! The car looked clean and interesting on the pictures.
And the price seemed ok as well, If I remember correctly it was offered for € 23.500,- . It was owned by the
director of the local BWM dealer. I checked the RDW register and
could see it had 5 previous owners since it was imported to the Netherlands in 2005. In my opinion not
always a good sign it had so many owners in this little time. But it does not really matter anymore ... on to the next.
I found a website that archived the car in question, so hereby some pictures so you can Judge yourselve: http://ipocars.com/vinfo/ferrari/400_automatic-1977.html
