Same as any other Ferrari of that era. Had mine over 4 years now and put 9k miles on.

Only thing I had to do was a pair of rear dampers and engine mounts. 2014 with HS.

Utterly amazing car to drive and as everyone says, buy on condition & history.

Not many for sale now from what I can see.

The gearbox can be problematic as can the roof mechanism. Can be very expensive to fix both (thousands not hundreds).

If you know who to use its pretty reasonable.

Gearbox no different to any other dct. 458 f12 sls. A friend's 3 year old roma has just had a gearbox issue.

Roof by webasto. Had a friend who's 458 roof went on spider. £1k fix.

Dct scuderia in Surrey are amazing with this generation of cars.

I can't comment specifically on the 30 but we're five years into owning a 2010 California and the experience has been nothing but positive, even after climbing out of our 360 Modena of eight years to buy it.
