Used Ferrari with an rac warranty

has anyone bought a used Ferrari from a Ferrari dealer in the uk that came with an rac warranty?
Any exclusions or claim limits to be aware of? Im epecially interested in the cover regarding FF ptu issues or dct fluid leaks? Cheers

 

Welcome - I'd have thought there would have to be a reason for an FF not to have the official warranty if it came from an official dealer ie why is it not part of the standard pre-owned programme

 

I would ask your questions directly of the dealer, in writing, and get a satisfactory response before buying. The RAC warranty at whatever level is very general and the dealer will take no responsibility once you have the car. As Jimmie says, buyer beware.

 

What dealer is that? I would have thought an FF would fall under official warranty if sold via a main dealer?

As stated above; best read the fine print and ask specific questions to the dealer. I’d also suggest you get the answers in writing...just in case!

Good luck.

 

you have confirmed my thoughts exactly..
I will get a copy of the warranty policy and claim limits in writing before going any further
Cheers

 

Plenty of FFs about at the moment and given the time of year I’d say it’s a bit more of a buyers market.

Although the main dealer I use for servicing said this November was on par with the best they have ever had!!

 

That’s what both my dealers have told me. Lots of bored people locked down, not travelling for business, not spending money on holidays, buying Ferraris. Also because of government plans to phase out sales of ICE cars. Buy while you can philosophy.
OP, I would look for a car with a warranty from Ferrari or from a good dealer. Unless yours is amazingly cheap! RAC warranty basically says, we take no responsibility for your car. And it’s not made for exotics.

am guessing this is the car being discussed

 

Why the mention of RAC warranty then since the HROwen car is 'Ferrari approved' which means official warranty ?

 

If you read the ad it specifically says 12 months RAC warrenty(talking about the grigio silverstone one at HR Owen).

 

Now says 24 month Ferrari warranty; which for a car of this age you would expect, Ferrari warrant good for cars up to 14 years old.

Just digging on the rac sight and the t&c fir the warranty are only “available upon request” so expect some limits exclusion that probably don’t match potential costs on a Ferrari.

 

It has been altered to “up to 24 months ferrari warranty” fairly recently.
I asked for a copy of the rac cover,exclusions and claim limit a few days ago but haven’t yet had a reply
