    I guess it depends. Have a 2010 Cali with 25000 miles. DD, most expensive thing is new tires and sticky switches.

    Zero problems. Love the car to just zoom around the back roads.

    Enjoy

    Steve, can you elaborate on the oil leaks in the Cali T engines? Are they covered under the New Power warranty (which seems to exclude leaks)? And what is the typical repair cost?

    What I've seen :

    Headgaskets - covered
    Valve cover gaskets - not covered

    Both would be covered by warranty extension

    Sorry only just seen the replies. So I bought the car September 2018 and think I was 4th owner. Full main dealer service history and I’ve carried on the main agent history for the two services. Had a two year warranty that expired and I forgot to renew.

    The failure happened 2 months after the warranty expired.

    Ferrari dealer can’t explain why and have just said the diff has broken up and caused metal swarf to run through the box and oil galleries etc. The parts needed to rebuild it were no longer available and the only option was an exchange gearbox at uk £20,400 just for the gearbox plus labour and that was it.

    I’ve sourced a second hand box from a low mileage accident damaged car for £8500 and they are installing it for me
