Low mileage is a prized attribute for many prospective buyers, especially when talking about much sought-after classics. It's seldom you come across a vehicle that is several decades old, having been sparingly used. However, such is the case with the Ferrari model in question.

This is a 1989, 328 model with British specifications. Its polished black exterior coupled with the tasteful cream leather interior makes for a refined composition. The odometer showing a paltry 596 miles (approximately 960 km) makes this car even more enticing.

This tells us that the 3.2-liter V8 engine has barely been broken in, and the same goes for the manual transmission, complete with its characteristic lever guides. Intriguingly, the car rested in a heated garage, propped on a jack, for 25 years. Ultimately, however, it found its way onto the road.

Thanks to a comprehensive service that also included replacing suspension components and brakes, the car is now fully roadworthy. The driving experience promises to be extraordinary, yet strikingly modern.

This feature-loaded model is equipped with an ABS and air conditioning. Combined with the not-overly-powerful 270-horsepower engine, the 328 makes for a leisurely mode of transportation.

Given its low mileage, it's unlikely to see rigorous use in the future. Interested parties can view this gem on the Avantgarde Classics roster. However, don't expect a bargain.
