Once you factor in the 2 year Ferrari Warranty that would come with a Ferrari AUC unit, it's not that cheap. There was a pic of the service book in the advert previously, if I remember correctly, last serviced in July 2010. If it was fully FAUC prepared with the 18750 service done, I'd have been tempted.

Presumably they could send it to their group Ferrari dealership for service & warranting

The cheapest Manual 430 at a Ferrari dealer is 75k +
10k more than covers a service & a top notch detail..
These cars a very well put together & there are very few horror stories, expensive items such as clutches/brakes/etc aint covered by warranty anyway..

Yes i have test driven it and loved it. The manual is superb. The red leather is also wonderful. I was considering it and nothing about the car or service put me off.

They have recently reduced it from 74k. Get it bought after the obligatory inspection. Condition was very good to my eyes.

i have to say all this talk of a manual being worth less than an F1 is debateable....for there are very few manuals about ....and the F1 is old hat...

my money is on my 430 rosso manual spider holding its value better than an F1...

back to OP.....this leather does not look too bad in the flesh - get down there and buy it....very good value at 66

F1 on 360 was old hat. Having owned a 430 with F1 for about 8 hours now it is definitely not old hat, it is superior to the Egear that was on my 07 Gallardo and is excellent. Yes they keep getting better and better, but 430 F1 is pretty damn good.

Around a year ago (when shopping for my Gallardo) I was not bothered either way - looked at Manuals and Egears, but ended up in an Egear and after a few days I was in love with it... once you get used to it there is not a lot of going back IMHO, far superior to manual for spiritted driving wink

It looks superbe IMO. If i hadnt find my WHITE GT3RS i would have gone for this one...or the red one which sold a couple weeks ago with carbon seats and roll cage for slightly more.

Go for it!

Real men drive manuals, girls drive flappy whotsits.

Buy it, if it checks out.
