The Ferrari 365 GTC/4 was in production for only two years, and then alongside the 365 GTB/4 Daytona but, during that time, it accounted for half of all Ferrari’s production of front-engined cars. Contemporary buyers clearly valued it highly and most enthusiasts rate it as the finest 2+2 Ferrari until the arrival of the 456. Even so, just 500 were made which makes it among the most exclusive Ferraris of the last 30 years. Motor racing practice could be detected in the all-independent suspension on a chassis nearly identical to that of the Daytona except that, instead of a transaxle, a conventional five-speed gearbox was mated directly to the 320 bhp 4.4-litre “quad cam” engine. Top speed was comfortably in excess of 240 km/h. The 365 GTC/4 to be sold today was first delivered to Germany but was imported to Switzerland some 20 years ago, and for 10 of those belonged to collector Jean-Claude Caveng in Geneva before its purchase at BROOKS inaugural Gstaad sale in 1998 by the vendor. Mr Caveng had driven the car sparingly, and since then it has been virtually unused. The top end of the engine had been previously overhauled although some minor oil leaks are now reported. Bodywork is described as good and solid, whilst the beige leather interior is original. The car is finished in Rosso Dino and comes with a Swiss Permis de Circulation, leather wallet with owners manual, guarantee card and spare parts catalogue, some tools and sundry maintenance invoices. A classic Ferrari for the price of a new Euro box!
