Enzo Ferrari founded the brand in 1939 to build race cars, and later debuted its first road car - the 125 Sport, in 1945. Ferrari has always been closely associated with motorsports as the brand’s present in the most prestigious race series such as Formula 1 and Le Mans. But when it comes to road cars, Ferrari has a long list of iconic hero cars that found their way to our bedroom walls.
Some unforgettable models include the 250 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, 458 Italia, 288 GTO, Testarossa, Dino, Daytona, F340, LaFerrari, etc. Attached with sizeable price tags, the decision to buy a Ferrari is arguably a bigger one than choosing which model to buy. Unless you need an SUV, then it’s just the Purosangue with a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine! Having spent nearly 100 years as one of the leading supercar manufacturers in the world, Ferrari is still head and shoulders above their rivals in various areas.
Used Ferraris can be bargain supercars, but prices are never affordable. There exists no such thing as a cheap Ferrari, especially when you take a second look at the running and upkeep costs. If you are ready to splurge on a used Ferrari, chances are it might be one of the best decisions in your life.
Ferrari mostly makes high-performance supercars with intricate carbon fibre and light yet durable chassis, making them safe. Ferraris also come equipped with standard safety features like airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control, carbon-ceramic brakes, electronic driver aids for road and track, etc.
Fuel-efficiency and Ferrari are never mentioned in the same line. This is because Ferrari cars come with high-capacity engines that develop outrageous power and torque figures. So, fuel economy takes a hit. Expect anywhere between 10 mpg and 15 mpg for Ferrari supercars in terms of fuel efficiency.
Ferrari’s most affordable popular models are priced from £40,000. For this price, you will find used examples of 360 Modenas mostly, with manual or the semi-automatic gearbox. The open-top California is priced around the £55,000 mark while more expensive models cost north of £100,000.
Yes, Ferrari has a strong lineup of hybrid models. These include the SF90 Stradale/Spider and the 296 GTB/GTS. Ferrari is yet to launch an all-electric car, but most new Ferrari models come equipped with advanced powertrain solutions.
Generally, Ferrari cars have a mixed reputation for reliability. Maintenance is key to these cars and a well maintained and looked after Ferrari will be reliable. Older Ferrari models from late 90s and the early 2000s suffered from reliability issues but the newer models tend to be more reliable.
When purchasing a used Ferrari, it is important to check everything from engine to chassis to interior. Since it is a supercar with a lot of complex engineering, it is crucial to make sure the car is in its best shape. Repairs and parts will be exorbitant and often parts will be as expensive as a used cheap Ferrari. But we get it. It is not easy to find anyone trustworthy to get supercar inspected. That is where our experts at AA Vehicle Inspection help you inspect a used Ferrari car thoroughly to identify all problems, even hidden ones, so you can have a smooth and trouble-free experience.
