I bought this Ferrari in 2004 on a 04 plate.
I orderded it in Ferrari red and had tan leather and satellite-navigation fitted for going up the motorway every day.
The car has almost done 70,000 miles and it hasn't gone wrong, except for the bulb in the boot light, which has blown.
I paid £167,000 for it. I have done 190mph before down an English road which I'm not explaining because I might be in trouble. Buy one - they're absolutely awesome.
My friend's friend owns a Ferrari 575M. I got to drive it and it is truly awesome. They say your first time in a Ferrari is a very special time, and it truly is.
The interior quality is superb. Obviously the running costs are very harsh, but then, if you can buy a Ferrari you don't care about the cost of petrol. I think it is brilliant. Would I buy one? Well, it's close - for me, its main rival is the Lamborghini Gallardo.
I don't know why, but I would prefer this to a Lamborghini Diablo, as you get so much more for your money.
I once owned an 04 GT (the version with the stupidly heavy clutch - a built in gym for your left leg). I've driven both editions since and must say…
I bought my TT 2 years ago, second hand (99 model)with 40k on the clock. Since then it has done 40 more. Service costs have been £250 a time. Timing…
