The 275 GTB/2 Longnose has been manufactured in 1965 in Maranello and delivered to the French importer Franco Brittanic in September 1965. According to the Ferrari factory confirmation, it has been ordered by the first owner Sen. Verrecchia, resident in Paris in the rare colour Celeste / light blue met. with the contrasting interior in Rosso scuro / dark red. As far as we know this might be the one and only 275 GTB/2 delivered in this rare colour combination.

In 1968 the first owner traded the car with now 17 000 km as a part exchange for his new upcoming 275 GTB/4 to Charles Pozzi SA, Paris, France which had already overtaken the Ferrari dealership from Franco Britanic. The car found its new and second owner through Pozzi with Mon. Afchain who later has given it to his son Bernard who had a nice home in the South of France at the French Reviera.

In the next twenty years it was hardly used and was sold in 2000 to the last and third French owner Mon. Garcin showing just 31 000 km. From 2000 until 2005 it received another 4 500 km driven carefully.

It was sold to its last and forth private German owner Dr. Mauss, resident in Düsseldorf, Germany. In 2010 Dr. Stefan Mauss decided to restore the car as the original paint which was still on the car had shown some wear. One of the tasks was to keep as much as possible of the cars originality. So it still has its gorgeous untouched dashboard, leather seats and door side panels in unbelievable original condtion. Everything which has been removed is still with the car and could be inspected. We have hundreds of pics in our file documenting the work which has been carried out in the next two years. The mileage today shows original 41 741 km or 25 625 mls. Needless to say that it runs and drives like it looks after its gorgeous restoration.

We guess that it might be difficult if not impossible to find a better 275 GTB/2 with a similar low original mileage in the same preserved condition. The colour combination of Celeste with Rosso scuro is breathtaking and unbelievable beautiful. We have to say that we had dozens of great 275 GTB's in the last 35 years but this is definitely one of the best we ever had.
