Description

The 458 Italia was a big step forward for Ferrari from the outgoing F430 model, it very much represents the beginnings of the modern era for Ferrari and build quality was vastly improved, making this the first mid engines model usable on an everyday basis according to the journalists reviews at the time. It has now become the most desirable model for many enthusiasts incorporating as it does all of the functionality and driving niceties of the modern era whilst retaining the wonderful free revving and charismatic normally aspirated engine.This example is exactly the sort I like to have at Hairpin, an unmolested, lightly used car that presents as new and finished the great yet subtle colour combination of Grigio Titanio with Nero leather interior featuring Giallo contrast stitch to match the factory Scuderia Shields.

It was supplied when new on the 24th of March 2012 by Ferrari main agent Meridien Modena of Lyndhurst in The New Forest and since then it has covered 21,000 miles. It has a full service history, initially with the supplying dealer and more latterly with Dick Lovett Ferrari, the main dealer in Wiltshire. The last service was completed as per schedule earlier this year.The 458 remains immaculate and original in all respects and has benefitted from a full PPF covering from new. It comes with all keys, tools and books in the correct leather wallet.A text-book example of a great and very usable car that represents the finale of the mid-engined normally aspirated Ferrari.
