Not much choice - maybe Bob Houghton - otherwise you really could do worse than talk to Carrs if previous praise is anything to go by - especially if its a modern car that needs access to diagnostics

Last time I spoke to Bob Houghtons they couldn't service anything past 430 as thery didn't have the SD3. That was over a year ago though and they said they were looking into getting one.
Not their business really modern Ferraris. The classic stuff they do is amazing.

Whilst a main dealer Carrs Ferrari in Exeter tend to be very reasonable on older Ferrari's. They even come and collect my 430 Scuderia which helps keep the mileage down lol

More of a focus on classics, but they have worked on 456, Mondial, 246 etc
