Onschatbare klassieker yearbook - price value indication 2020

Last week I finally received the yearbook of the Dutch magazine the "Onschatbare Klassieker".
I bought it since it's a few years back I did so too. Thought it would be nice to have an updated book with new valuation prices. Turns out there has not been a change in prices for the 400 series since 2015, see blog:

The same photo's has been used as well, so I'm not going to make an effort to work it out in furthter detail. Still a bit strange they (not sure what sources they use) consider no price movement over the past 5 years for the 400 series (in the years in between I had these checked as well and it has been steady since, so no upwards or downward trends).

Book Ferrari 456 by Automobilia - 2 + 2 overview

I recently bought this book which was part of a package deal. Turns out it had a very good historic overview of the 2 + 2 which obviously included the 400 series. The overview is now available in the download folder at the section magazine articles.

1978 – Ferrari 400 Automatic

Chassis N° : 24705
Italian title

- Powerful and confortable
- Beautiful colour combination
- Sporty, classy and a great family car

The first owner of this car was Ferrari Esercizio Fabbriche Automobili e Corse SpA (a company created by Enzo Ferrari in 1960) between 1978 and 1980. According to his logbook, it was given to Jody Scheckter, 1979 world champion on Ferrari, as a company car. The car then changed hands in 1981 and again in 1985, still in Italy. Purchased by its current owner in 2003, N°24705 was never restored, but was resprayed in its original metallic brown livery in 1996. Although it was not driven a lot, this Ferrari has nevertheless kept its superb appearance. The different body parts are well aligned as well as the interior in good original condition. During our test drive, the engine, gearbox and brakes showed no signs of weakness. Only the running gears showed signs of ageing due to the weight and immobilisation of the beautiful beast. This is to be expected before we can put this superb car back on the road for long journeys.

ESTIMATE : 35 000 € / 45 000 €

This car will be sold by auction by AGUTTES Auction House, in Paris, at the Espace Champerret, France, on March the 15th, 2020.

Can you believe it, these cars were up for grabs for less than 10k GBP. And still they didn't sell:

Update 2-3-2020: By surprise I was contacted by the current owner. The car is still around today and has the same license plate. Last year it has been completely restored and stripped back to bare metal and resprayed in chique Prugna. Splendid:
