Ferrari 360 Market Watch (Jun14)

01/06/2014

Before I get into the asking price analysis I thought I’d publish the results of a different set of price data.  I was recently passed CAP data for the 360 covering the last year.  It took a bit of work to convert the reports into something usable but here’s what I discovered… CAP price the … More Ferrari 360 Market Watch (Jun14)

Ferrari 360 & F430 Exhaust Valve Control Unit

14/05/2014

I decided that it would be a good idea to fit a unit so that I could control the exhaust bypass valves on my car independently of the Motronics.  The main reason I wanted to do this was so I could force open the valves when sat in heavy traffic (I live in London and it … More Ferrari 360 & F430 Exhaust Valve Control Unit

Ferrari 360 & F430 UK Export Numbers

12/05/2014

Following on from my post regarding the number of Ferrari 360 and F430 cars registered in the UK, I made a Freedom of Information requested to the DVLA.  The FOI request asked for the number of cars exported in the last 10 years split by make, model and year of export.  To my utter astonishment … More Ferrari 360 & F430 UK Export Numbers

Ferrari 360 Remote Control Luggage Compartment

11/05/2014

The way the 360 is set up, releasing the luggage compartment bonnet is a little awkward.  The key needs to be in the ignition and the switch is in the centre of the car – not so bad if you’re in the car but from outside opening up can be a chore.  There is the option … More Ferrari 360 Remote Control Luggage Compartment

Ferrari 360 & F430 UK Production Numbers

07/05/2014

Following on from my May Market Watch update I was contacted by a 360 owner who pointed out that the number of cars on our roads today was far less than reportedly imported to the UK during the 360 production run.  This prompted me to do a little more digging… Before looking at the official VOSA … More Ferrari 360 & F430 UK Production Numbers

Ferrari 360 Market Watch (May14)

01/05/2014

VOSA have released their latest statistics for vehicles registered in the UK so I thought I’d build a table of how the numbers of 360s have been changing over the last few years (the data doesn’t go beyond 2010).  The number of 360s in the UK has been steadily declining – there are now nearly … More Ferrari 360 Market Watch (May14)

Ferrari F430 Annual Service

25/04/2014

My car was due an annual service this week so I popped over to the workshop of Ed Blasi – a factory trained tech with over 20 years of experience with the marque (more info on my list of recommended companies within the Ferrari community).

Ferrari 360 Racing Exhaust

24/04/2014

The 360 was offered with the option of a “Racing” exhaust system, the code was EXA1 and it cost an additional £3,113.75.  This exhaust system was subsequently fitted to the Challenge Stradale and gives the trademark “bark” when accelerating hard.  Very few 360s were fitted with this option, however a number of franchised dealers in … More Ferrari 360 Racing Exhaust

Ferrari F430 Slow Down

19/04/2014

I received the dreaded “Slow Down” message on the dash in my F430 the other day so thought I would document some notes about the system and the method I used to fixed my error.  First of all it should be noted there are two Slow Down messages that can occur in the F430 – … More Ferrari F430 Slow Down

Ferrari 360 & F430 Front Bumper Repair

15/04/2014

A common issue with front bumpers is the tabs that hold the bumper to the under tray break.  This allows the under tray to drop, allowing moving air to push it further down and flap around.  This sequence of photos was taken on an F430 bumper but the procedure is exactly the same for a … More Ferrari 360 & F430 Front Bumper Repair
