Time to purchase A 360 Spider

[italyciccia76]

Hi All

Call it mid life crisis but I prefer to refer to it a fulfilling a dream, I am now in the position where I have £55k-£60k to purchase a red 360 Spider.

I'm guessing it is unlikely that I can buy a approved ferrari from an approved ferrari dealer for this price so I assume I will need to go to a trusted dealer or private seller. Unfortunately my knowledge is limited on cars so I would prefer to use someone who is respected and I can trust so can anyone recommend some good independent dealers.

Also in terms of bargaining from the quoted price what should I be looking to achieve in terms of discount and added benefits, and what sort of car should I be looking for in terms of mileage etc.

I'm sorry if some of these have been answered previously but I would appreciate any help and guidance anyone could give.

Thanks again.

Some great advice thank you

How about insurance - should i use money supermarket etc or something else ? Had a quick look and it's about £800 from normal sources.

Also do they come fitted with trackers as standard ?

Thanks to everyone. Had a chat with Tim Walker who was excellent and also Nick cartwright who has this for sale - http://www.nickcartwright.com/carsales/showroom/vi... which looks decent IMO. Anyone seen it ?

Also do can I expect any sort of warranty ?

Thanks again

Hi guys - for some reason I am having to justify this purchase to my father. I am budgeting for £2k per year running costs is this accurate. Also can someone confirm how often the cambelt needs changing ? Thanks again
