The Ferrari 250 GTE 2+2 offered here, chassis 2957, was marked as complete by the factory on 20 November 1961 as the 257th car made from the 299-strong production run of the Series I. The following month, the Ferrari was sent to marque dealer M. Gastone Crepaldi Automobili of Milan, and soon found its new owner, Count Domenico Agusta, the founder of MV Agusta and boss of the Agusta aeronautical company. Throughout the 1960s, the 250 was maintained by Ferrari Factory Assistenza Clienti in Modena. Domenico passed away in 1971 and the Ferrari was inherited by Giovanna Agusta, though was quickly sold on to its next owner in Switzerland.

From then until 2007, the Ferrari’s history is largely unknown, when the car returned to Italy and was inspected by a workshop in Cremona. It later received mechanical renovation in June 2008. In 2015, the Ferrari was taken to Belgium by Augusta Classics of Ohain, and the following year it joined The Curated Collection. The Ferrari has been subject to light recommissioning in their care. Today, it is presented in its factory-correct exterior shade of Grigio Argento with a retrimmed blue interior, and is complete with its matching-numbers body, chassis, engine, gearbox and rear axle. This wonderful 250 GTE with significant early history would make a fine addition to any Ferrari collection.
