We are not still in the 80s guys (well I am, but that's another story) - Ferrari's build quality has improved vastly since the 355 (though there are F1 gearbox issues with 355 and 360), and the latest generation is a solid build.

This, along with Ferrari's new car warranty, and the news of the 4 year used car warranty for cars less than 9 years old, means owning a recent F car is far cheaper than it used to be compared to older models.

But when things do go wrong, if you have not got a warranty you can find a good independent dealer who charges less labo(u)r rates than the main dealers.

Owning an F car can be a good thing...
