Ferrari GB Ltd has announced the launch of a new Ferrari Approved programme which offers peace of mind and reassurance for customers who are purchasing a Ferrari up to nine years old.

Ferrari GB Ltd has announced the launch of a new Ferrari Approved programme which offers peace of mind and reassurance for customers purchasing a Ferrari up to 9 years old. With the support of a warranty underwritten by Ferrari, and the most comprehensive technical inspection in the industry, Ferrari Approved is a testament to the company’s confidence in the enduring appeal of cars which proudly wear the Prancing Horse.

With an average of less than 900 pre-owned Ferrari cars sold through the Official Ferrari Dealer Network in the UK each year over the past 10 years, a Ferrari Approved car remains as exclusive as the day it was delivered to its first owner.

The programme is available through any of the 15 Official Ferrari Dealers in the UK and offers considerable benefits to customers for ultimate peace of mind:

- 190 point comprehensive and detailed technical inspection
- Only Ferrari Genuine Parts are used to repair or replace defective items
- An independent verification check to certify the car’s identity, mileage and ownership history
- Verification the car is not subject to any outstanding finance agreement
- A Ferrari Service History Check to verify the car has been appropriately maintained by Ferrari
- A minimum of 12-months Ferrari factory based warranty
- A minimum of 12-months Ferrari Roadside Assistance

The programme’s comprehensive 190 point technical inspection and factory-backed warranty are designed to offer similar standards of vehicle preparation for customers buying a pre-owned Ferrari as those buying a new one.

Cars available in the programme include icons from both the V8 and V12 ranges: V8 range: 360 Modena – from 1999, 360 Spider – from 2000, Challenge Stradale – from 2003, F430 – from 2005 and F430 Spider – from 2005. V12 range: 550 Maranello – from 1999, 550 Barchetta Pininfarina – from 2000, 575M Maranello – from 2002, Superamerica – from 2005, 599 GTB Fiorano – from 2006, 456M GT/GTA – from 1999 and 612 Scaglietti – from 2004.

The range of Ferrari Approved cars available can be viewed via the www.ferrari.co.uk/approved website, with full details of each car available for sale through the Official Ferrari Dealer Network. The website features the most comprehensive and up-to-date list of Ferrari Approved Used Cars available in the network, with personalised search criteria to refine the search by preferred colour, mileage, transmission and price range.
