1991 Ferrari F40 for Sale in United Kingdom

An F40 of 1991, catalysed and non-adjustable suspension, supplied new to Italy and now UK registered.

The F40 was built for Ferrari's fortieth year and was the last car Enzo signed off: a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V8 of 478 CV, Kevlar and carbon panels, sliding plexiglass windows, and an interior stripped to the frame.

The catalysed, non-adjustable cars are the later specification. DK Engineering sells it from Chorleywood.

Ferrari's 201 mph F40 is the definitive supercar and has a formidable reputation alongside the 250 GTO as possibly the best road Ferrari built to date. With the F40, Pininfarina produced an era-defining creation, one that even today is instantly recognisable by old and young enthusiasts alike. F40's were closely derived from the experimental GTO Evoluzione and the road-going 288 GTO (that the F40 replaced).

The design features a tubular steel chassis with bonded composite inserts, most notably around the sills and floor pan, The 2,936 cc motor produces approximately 500 bhp at 7,000 rpm with the help of two water-cooled IHI turbochargers running 1.1 bar of boost. At 1,202 kg, the F40 had, and still has, a phenomenal power-to-weight ratio. Shatteringly fast by any comparison (especially for 1988), the F40 can sprint from 0-60 mph in just 4.4 seconds and hit 201 mph flat out making it the first production car to surpass this mystical boundary.

This example was supplied new to its first owner 'Diretto', a direct factory sale, with the bookpack later being supplied by Crepaldi of Milan to Rasini Leasing SpA on 16th May 1991.

Purchased from the collection of a noted Swiss Ferrari enthusiast in 2006, the car would remain in Switzerland for two further years prior to import into the United Kingdom in December 2008. Following on from registration, the car was placed into longterm storage within a secure facility in the UK. Forming a part of a significant collection, the car would barely move during his near two-decade ownership.

Following a major recomissioning service including a full fluid flush, cambelts and fuel cells, the car passed to its current owner in 2025. Since then further remedial works to further improve this F40 have been carried out at considerable expense. These works included the replacement and refinishing of components, remedial works for a sagging headliner and removed the cam covers to replace engine o-rings tending to oil leaks. Extensive interior and exterior detailing has been carried out totalling £12,800. Most recently benefitting from an annual service in January 2026, this example has been inspected for its red book Classiche certification which is in process.

This 1991 Ferrari F40 is a used car showing 14,900 km.

The price is on request. The car is located in Chorleywood, United Kingdom.

FAQ

This Ferrari F40 in the European market

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

The car is located in Chorleywood, 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 does the mileage of this Ferrari compare?

14,900 km recorded, against a median of 4,925 km across the Ferrari advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service history and previous owners are not published on LUSSO and should be confirmed with the selling dealer.

Who is selling this Ferrari F40, and how does a purchase work?

DK Engineering, a professional dealer in Chorleywood, 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 F40 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Chorleywood, 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.

Is this Ferrari F40 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with DK Engineering before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the United Kingdom?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.

Where can I see the wider Ferrari market?

LUSSO publishes a market overview for the F40, covering current asking prices in Europe, availability by country, why prices differ, how VAT works on a cross-border purchase and what to compare between two cars.
