Nice colour combo for a front engined V12, check the windows as they tend to leave a gap when shut after a while. This can be fixed by drilling another hole of one of the components, but this can only bo done a few times. Also check the cam seals as they have a habit of weeping.

I would say that a complete service history is a must for a 456 as they can be very expensive to fix. Exhaust and bonnet are very expensive to replace. A good engine which if looked after will last a long time.

Try Mike Wheeler at Rardleys too as he seems to sell most 456's down London way.

Oh yes, I forgot, I think that Verdi's get a pretty good write up from most.
