Warranty for Ferrari/ Lambo

[Ej74]

This may well have been covered else where in the forum, I have a few questions :

1. What is the cost of extending the Ferrari/ Lambo warranty beyond the standard term offered
2. I assume the warranty requirements including some sort of vehicle check and standard fitment of parts only
3. I know this is a "how long is a piece of string" type question...but what is the average life expentancy of the carbon brake setup on the Carbon brakes on a F430 ? and cost of pads/ disc's I have been told it is circa 10k ?
4. Cost of a clutch chane on a Lambo Gallardo ?


I am trying decide on the relative pro's and con's between a 06 plate F430 / 06 plate Lambo Gallardo / 07/06 Aston Martin V8 Vantage


Thanks in advance

As far as i know Ferrari will warranty a car that is up to 9 years old, or a certain millage (not quite sure what it is). It involves a check, you take the car into them and they run the check to find out if anything is wrong. I'm not sure how they act to non-standard parts. As you said they would probably want them removed, but i guess it depends what it is.
As for the cost, it all depends on how long the car has been out of warranty etc, i think it would be approximately £2-3k per year. I would assume Lamborghini have the same/similar policy.

As for which car to choose, you should go test them all and see what you prefer. I think you may find the Aston too slow in comparison to the Ferrari and the Lambo. I've had my Gallardo for 4 years this summer and it is brilliant, puts a smile on my face every time i look at it.

I hope that helps and if you have any questions feel free to email me.

As far as I know, you can't extend the Lambo warranty.............

Lamborghini don't offer an extended warranty at the moment but they are working on it. Expect something official later this year.

Clutch change approx £3k - £3.5K at dealer.

Hope that's of some use!
