Should I?????????????? Was after a 1 yr old but this is obviously cheaper and is a low miler. I would extend the warranty, and it would have had the belts etc done but still its 3yrs old - whats the residuals going to be in 2 yrs from now???

How do I know if all the campaigns have been done ???

Its from Maranello btw so it will have a 1 yr warranty plus I will buy another year and keep the car for 2 yrs in total. Car has all the options on it already. My main concern is what is and isn't covered by the warranty. Coming from an audi I'm used to things going wrong (don't laugh now) and just taking it to the dealer and getting them to fix it for free. Its not the going wrong that worries me - its what I may have to pay for that is outside the warranty! Anyone have any +ve or -ve experience of this?

Guys - can you help me complile a quick checklist of things I should consider (havn't bought a car for 3 years so will probably forget something!)

1. Red Key;
2. All campaigns done;
3. Full maranello service history;
4. HPI Check;
5. Tracker fitted y/n?;
6. Are there any spares I should look for (tyre foam stuff, toolkit etc?);
7. Decent tread on tyres;
8. All electrics working - may need some assistance on this one!
9. Anything I should look for from a cold/hot start?
10. Anything else - if specific to a 3200 all the better.

Thanks guys.

I only hope the price will be right!

Why? Will the jeans get cream coloured or the seats get black?
