Hi. I might in the near future be buying a house in Spain. I wonder if anyone could share their experiences with Ferrari dealers i Spain ? Any experience with the service/repairs of Ferraris in Mallorca ? If there is a workshop in Mallorca that is. Any info would be highly appreciated. Thanks. Anders
Hi Anders, a very warm welcome here at ferrarichat.com Its an awesome great community of Ferari drivers & lovers. Where does you come from? Do you live in Mallorca? I`m sure Julio and his friends from Spain can help you. Enjoy your passion & drive. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Welcome to this forum Anders, yes the official distributor of Ferrari, Testarossa Cars SA, has a dealership in Balear Islands. What I do not know is if they have a garage. Call them I am sure that they speak German, they should... almot 50% of the island is German property. This is the info of the 2 Ferrari dealers that I have found there, both in Palma de Mallorca: TESTAROSSA CARS, S.A. Paseo Marítimo nº 37 07012 - Palma de Mallorca Telephone: 971 22 09 41 MEDIAUTO, S.A. Gran Vía Asima nº 4 Pol. Ind. Son Castelló 07009 - Palma de Mallorca Telephone: 971 02 20 22 Fax: 971 02 20 44 I hope this helps. - Julio
Thanks Julio. This was great help. Will give them a call when I get down to Mallorca. Thanks again. /Anders

Yes those are some, there are some more too, but not in Mallorca. I might misunderstood the question. In my opinion the best one in Madrid, Maranello Rosso. Here is a link to the Spain Ferrari services in very nice page from a Ferrari fan in Spain, Fede Ferrari Col.leccio It also part of a Ferrari Web Ring, and there are some interesting pages there. - Julio.
Julio, no there was no misunderstanding. The question was just about Spain. I was the one who started to ask for more infos about my dream-island Mallorca. I still appreciate any infos about Ferrari / Mallorca. Yes, like I mentioned in a few other threads; we are realy serious looking forward to move within the next few years to Mallorca (incl. our store & family). Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Why Mallorca! I mean it is nice, but for a Ferrari fan is going to get a bit boring. I mean you will be at the other end of the Island before you hit 160 km/h. And to get other rides you will have to put the car in a boat to go to France, Spain or Italy. Hmmm, although Corsica will be pretty close, nice mountain roads there. Marbella has a pretty similar weather, a little bit sunnier, a significant German comunity, and you have the whole Iberian Peninsula to drive. - Just an opinion.
Julio, we have been looking around the whole world since several years to find a real-estate for the future. We don`t want to live any longer in Germany....lots of reason and too much too list. We have searched over Greece, Italy, Spain, France, Swiss and also in the USA /California. We love the Spain way of live, the food (especially sea-food) and Mallorca --NOT Ballermann-- is an awesome great location and place to live. We have many friends (from the music industry/business) over there who are living in Mallorca since a few years. Its pretty close to Germany; just 1 hour trip and sure I will take my Ferrari with me. I see no problem to ship the Ferrari for a trip with the ferry to Spain or France. Its the way of live, sun and of course business I can run there. I hate those cold, cloudy, rainy, snowy days in Winter. I love the feeling of mostly summer like Mallorca...and a little bit winter also. Look over here in Germany: Everybody seems to be in a rush the whole day....no reason! Everybody is running around with a depressiv face and no smiling. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Jesus, any recommendations are very welcome. Please feel free to advice us some great places to LIVE, we are serious searching for the right place & real estate to live. Infos, City, Rentals and any www.???? are very welcome. Thanks in advance Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
i agree with jesus. best thing is we drive down together and you'll see all these nice places...there are so many!
Mhmmmmm Trevi, YOU should know me?!? Serious? I´m on the jump, its no problem to me and the weather here sucks so badly....why not? I would like to fly down and rent a car; to be honest I don`t drive with the testa on snow, ice and salt streets. I have realy time enough - I have canceled my Los Angeles business trip for this week`cause the US$ drops too much down and it doesn`t worth it to travell over. So time enough, here we go?????? Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Hey Trevi, whats up buddy, I`m waiting? I already found a cheap flight: http://www.abticket.de/ Saturday, 10/01/04 Frankfurt - Malaga (just 30 minutes to Marbella) back Saturday, 17/01/04 Malaga - Frankfurt Price: uro 109,- Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
unfortunately, i have no time actually, sorry, but i have no cancelled business trips ...and, as you know, i like to spend my spare time with my ferrari and that means during the ferrari-season and not in winter time
....yes, I know Trevi. And vacation starts up for you with 6 weeks or more. It was just a serious thought in those cold days; maybe I will fly with my wife the next few weeks for a weekend trip to Marbella. Are there any places/citys in Andalusia you can recommend? Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
thanks in advance & CU tomorrow. Enjoy your evening and don`t drink too much Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Thank you so much; I`m happy for every "input". @Julio, got it thankx Now I know what to do tomorrow: I will try to figure out all those citys & surrounding and maybe will be soon there for a short weekend trip. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
http://www.lamangaspain.com/ Another interesting alternative. And in addition, you can play golf, if you wish it. Greetings Alfredo.
Thank you so much Alfredo, Julio, Trevi! I see that I know so less about Spain. There are realy more great places than just Mallorca & Marbella. I`m not in a rush and have time enough (told you the next few years) and I`m far away from a final decision after all your helpful input. Well, we will travel to some of those great places for a 3-4 days weekend trip and will see. Our first thought was of course the problem with the language...we both don`t speak any spain word. So we thought to go to Mallorca or Marbella `cause we never have had any problems speaking German or English there....I`m too old to learn one more language fluent;-) Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
The zones that we showed to you, are turisticas zones. There is all type of services for English, Germans, Norwegians, Swedish, Ect. Almost all the establishments, have somebody speaks English and German. Greetings
We also decided NOT to buy on the first day! The way we are looking for to realize our dream could be: Longtime rental for 1 year and after this time, when everything went on the right way, buying the house. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
