Hello. My love for Ferrari's goes back many years and I am sure it is similar to all the other Fchatters here! I am now in a position to purchase a 348, and I was looking to see whether there were any well kept examples for sale here? I am not decided whether I want a Spyder version or not, however I am decided on the colour, RC Red. I was also wondering whether anyone would be able to lend me a hand at the viewing stages, helping me to understand areas to look for? I am based in the UK, in the Vale of Belvoir, between Melton Mowbray and Nottingham. I think I would have purchased one before now if the Ferrari dealership hadn't said the 348 should never have been made, and basically wasn't up to much!! I does seem that those who have them seem to be running them almost problem free. Many thanks, Chris.
Chris, Why not post this question in the UK section, there are a number of 348 owners who would disagree with the dealer who told you 348's were terrible, as well as a number of people who know of 348's for sale in the UK Regards
Would that be Gray Paul who are now no longer near you?? They said the same to me but only becasue they had none and wanted me to buy one of their 328 or 355.
Hello. Yes it was Graypaul!! I am just after some honest opinions from owners 'in the know' really. I don't want to part with £30k+ and make a big mistake. Any help would be useful ... Thansk, Chris.
Chris, Try the UK section too Other than that, have you driven a 348? IMHO, if you like your driving raw and unassisted by computer/PAS etc, then it'll be your kind of car. The 348 was the last "man at one with machine" Ferrari, with nothing to dilute the experience IMHO If you want a more modern, easier to drive car, then consider a 355 or newer. Drive that too before buying as you may prefer it. Jas
