Having been used and enjoyed for many very happy miles, the current owner of this F50 brought the car to us in early 2023 and tasked us with carrying out a comprehensive mechanical overhaul. With no bolt spared and no surfaces missed, DK meticulously stripped, refinished and refitted thousands of individual components. To provide increased access, the engine was removed entirely allowed uninhibited access to the bulkhead. The suspension all round was rebuilt and once refinished, the car was reassembled.
It fills Team DK with great pride to have been entrusted with the care of this F50. The works carried resulted in not only a faultless, 'perfect 100' Platinum Award with no deductions, but furthermore won Ferrari Classiche Best of Show!
