Description:
This wonderful B188 is chassis number 01, in 2001 it left the Benetton factory complete but without engine. In January 2008 a total mechanical service was carried out until August including suspension, crack test, brakes, cooling & sump systems, gearbox and electronic completely rebuilt to be race ready. In this process the engine was rebuilt at Nicholson-McLaren Engines with dyno test, it’s now ready for 1500 km of use. It raced in September 2008 the EuroBoss at SPA. All of the corresponding invoices are in the car’s file, the total amount is of 40 000 €. Though this F1 was in excellent condition a lot of attention was brought to the detailing and a very nice cosmetic work was done. It comes with a very important spares package: hubs, uprights, pinions&shafts, half shafts, transmissions, bearings, air scoops, sway bars, rockers, coolers, water pipes & lines, steering, etc… about 300 kg. The pit equipment is also included with another set of wheels, wheel nut socket, starter and the refuelling system. This is a very interesting Rory Byrne’s designed Benetton which was in its days very successful and one of the nicest Formula 1 from the end of the 80s. Now restored and in fine condition, being really a “race ready F1”, it would be a great entry in EuroBOSS or will be a lovely car for an enthusiast to be used in private testings.
