An early single-mirror (“Monospecchio”) Testarossa in red, showing just 15,000 miles and offered with a genuinely special ownership story. Key information • Early 1986 Testarossa in the sought-after single-mirror (“Monospecchio”) specification • Finished in red with 15,000 recorded miles • Five-speed manual gearbox • Offered with notable provenance — previously owned by a member of a championship-winning Formula One team, per the vendor's account Model overview Launched at the 1984 Paris Motor Show, the Testarossa took its name (“red head”) from the red-painted cam covers of its 4.9-litre flat-twelve, which produced around 390hp. Pininfarina's dramatically wide body—with those unmistakable side strakes feeding air to the side-mounted radiators—made it one of the defining supercar shapes of the 1980s. The earliest cars, built through to around 1986, are distinguished by a single, high-mounted door mirror and are known to enthusiasts as “Monospecchio” examples—now among the most collectable of all Testarossas.
