2015 FERRARI CALIFORNIA T

KEY FACTS

• A fine example of the potent Italian sports car, boasting a very high specification and presented in excellent overall condition.
• Under the bonnet is the 3.9-litre twin-turbocharged ‘Tipo F154 BB’ V8, which sends 552bhp to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission with paddle shift.
• The odometer displays just 18,461 miles from new, which is fully supported by the car’s maintenance history.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• This California T was specified in the elegant hue of Bianco Avus, with a Nero leather and Alcantara-trimmed interior accented by white stitching.
• The car was ordered with approximately £43,000 of optional extras, including the carbon-fibre ‘Driver Zone’ steering wheel with LED shift lights, the carbon-fibre interior trim pack, sports exhaust system, Scuderia wing shields, and carbon-ceramic brakes with yellow callipers.
• Other equipment includes dual-zone climate control, satellite navigation and heated and electrically adjustable seats.
• It rides on a set of 20-inch forged alloy wheels with diamond-cut faces, which are in great shape, though the lacquer has lifted on two of the front passenger-side wheel’s spokes.
• The car will be accompanied by its two keys and its stamped service book.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• The Bianco Avus paintwork is believed to be entirely original and is in excellent overall condition, with a few minor stone chips on the lower section of the front bumper, in line with its low mileage.
• Inside, the cabin presents particularly well, and while there is creasing on the front seat bolsters and light wear on the driver’s seat’s outer bolster, this is commensurate with the car’s use.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical faults.
• The car’s last MOT test was conducted on 16 June 2021 at 16,578 miles, resulting in a clean, first-time pass.

SERVICE HISTORY

• The vendor will provide full details of this California T’s maintenance history in due course; however its most recent maintenance included an engine oil, oil filter and ancillary belt change.
• Prior to this, the engine oil, oil filter and pollen filter were changed in November 2017, and the engine oil, oil filter and brake fluid were also renewed in January 2017.
• The seller also notes that both rear wheel bearings have just been changed at a cost of approximately £4,000.
• The car is still covered by the balance of the original seven-year service programme.

SUMMARY

This Ferrari California T is a fantastic convertible grand tourer, which offers impressive performance and a highly refined driving experience. Specified in a timeless colour scheme and equipped with £43,000 of optional extras, this example should make a fine companion for warm-weather drives, when its next owner can lower its retractable hardtop roof and bask in the sound of its twin-turbocharged V8.
