Overview about this 1986 Ferrari 512 BBi for sale

A 512 BBi in Rosso Corsa over Nero leather, two owners, 19,085 miles, left-hand drive.

The 512 BBi closed out the Berlinetta Boxer line, the first Ferrari road cars to use a mid-mounted flat-twelve. The i is for injection: Bosch K-Jetronic replaced the four Weber carburettors of the 512 BB, which made the 4.9-litre engine cleaner and easier to live with. The dealer states that 1,007 were built.

This car spent part of its life in a Japanese collection and was registered with the DVLA in February 2016. It sits on five-spoke metric wheels with Michelin TRX tyres and retains its Veglia instruments, pop-up headlights, limited-slip differential, twin-plate clutch, air conditioning and electric windows.

The service record starts with a major service by DK Engineering in March 2016 at 18,559 miles, at a cost the dealer puts at around £11,500, and runs through Ferrari main dealers to March 2026 at 19,085 miles. It comes with its spare wheel, tool roll, jack, owner's pack, manuals and two keys.

The dealer's Key Information panel records this car as right-hand drive. Its own title and description both state left-hand drive, and that is what is published here.

FAQ

This Ferrari 512 BBi in the European market

How this car sits against the other Ferrari 512 BBi advertised in Europe on 2026, and what to settle before a cross-border purchase.

Is this Ferrari 512 BBi priced above or below the European market?

At £249,995, about €292,491, it sits above the median of €269,900 for the 3 Ferrari 512 BBi advertised in Europe in 2026. 67% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread. See the listings

Can this Ferrari 512 BBi be bought in the United Kingdom and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Preston, United Kingdom. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Ferrari 512 BBi cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €71,000 in United States, excluding options. This car is advertised at £249,995, 312% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today.

How does the mileage of this Ferrari 512 BBi compare?

30,714 km recorded, against a median of 31,945 km across the Ferrari 512 BBi advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service history and previous owners are not published on LUSSO and should be confirmed with the selling dealer.

Which other Ferrari 512 BBi are priced closest to this one?

a 1983 car in Germany at €269,900, and a 1982 car in the United Kingdom at €263,189. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself. See the listings

Who is selling this Ferrari 512 BBi, and how does a purchase work?

Amari Supercars, a professional dealer in Preston, United Kingdom. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Ferrari 512 BBi be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Preston, United Kingdom, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history: LUSSO does not publish these and cannot confirm them.
