Hi All,

I'm interested in the below F430, I'm 4-5 hours away from the dealer so I thought I'd see if anyone was familiar with this one before I take the trip to view... I've looked up the dealer and feedback seems to be very positive so that's hopefully a good sign.

Thanks

Out of touch with the 430 market, but it will be an aftermarket warranty as opposed to a 2 year factory warranty that you would get on a Ferrari approved used vehicle....manifold, ball joint,F1,soft top and water pump issues etc can be expensive to resolve, as for the dealer spoken to them a few times and they seemed ok to deal with.

It has a very patchy service history. I cant remember what else I didn't like about it. Its been up for sale for at least three months, maybe more.

Dealt with Redline a number of times - great bunch. Usually deal with Dean there. No issues at all, and have recommended many times to friends too.
That specific car - I don't have any insight, but from what I know they don't take stters into stock.

Good luck!

my experience is different, the one car i looked at (997) a few years ago was a stter, and the amount of lying bulls**t i got of the sales guy was astonishing... this could be an isolated case though of course.

I've got a nicer one that I might be persuaded to sell...
