    VIN: ZFFLA13B000058677

    This car is currently in Holland after having been on the road in Denmark and originally sold in Kuwait...

    Anybody from Kuwait know this car ?

    Also, how many Ferrari dealers are there in Kuwait ? If I decide to buy it, would like to trace back its history...

    Greetings from a slightly colder belgium,

    Frank

    The Dealer that sold this car is no longer in business. He unfortunately passed away and his widow tried to run the service center with a small showroom till about 2003 when it was subcontracted to some enthusiasts who ran it till 2005. The service center has been closed down and all the SD1, Full Ferrari Service Bench and Jacks as well as other dealer memorobilia has been sold off.

    Al Zayani became the official Ferrari dealer in 1998 and the first Ferraris they started selling were the 355s and 550 Maranellos. I don't think they will be of much help to you:

    I think I know the original owner... I'll get with him personally, and see if it was his car. PM me your private contact details, and I'll pass them on to him.

    We aim to please...

    Actually, Kuwait isn't as big a place as people think...and, having been here for 17 years, let's just say that I know a few people...and the people I know, know people, etc....

    He's the cousin of the owner of ASK, the American School of Kuwait in Hawalli... where my daughter goes to school... so, I made an appointment with him, asked about Talal, and he said 'sure, get me a phone number, and I'll give it to him to call...''

    Wasn't all that hard. And, anything to help a Fratelli...! I know you guys would do the same for me...
