The newest Ferrari and Maserati service centre in Europe has opened in Wimbledon. Joe Macari Servicing is a new 20,000 sqft, state-of-the-art workshop.

The new centre hosted a glittering launch party on Thursday, attended by many of the capital's celebrity Ferrari owners, including Frank Lampard and Frankie Dettori, with guests surrounded by a stunning collection of Ferrari and Maserati road and race cars.

The development will house a team of factory-trained technicians, working across thirteen service bays, including a Ferrari hi-tech diagnostic bay. It’s the first stand-alone service and repair centre to be awarded official Ferrari and Maserati status in the UK.

Massimo Fedeli, Managing Director of Ferrari GB said: ‘Ferrari offers customers the most exclusive driving experience in the world, backed by the best customer service possible. We are delighted to welcome Joe Macari as an official Ferrari service centre offering the highest standards to our clients.’

Joe Macari, Managing Director, is thrilled to have realised his ambitious plans: 'Like most lads, owning a Ferrari was my ultimate boyhood dream. Once I became a dealer, I began to develop a very clear idea of what the ultimate Ferrari workshop should look like and it's hugely rewarding to see my vision become reality as an official Ferrari service centre.’

Macari opened his Wandsworth performance car showroom in 2000. The 40-year-old is also an enthusiastic racing driver, who will compete this year alongside Red Bull Racing's Technical Director, Adrian Newey, in the Le Mans 24 Hour race in a Ferrari F430 GT2 as well as contesting the FIA GT Championship with Birmingham-based businessman, Ben Aucott, in a Maserati MC12.

I PRAY this year I get to see one or even go out in one, never seen my dream car (or heard it)
Although I seriously cannot complain for all the other cars I've been lucky enough to go in
