Hi
I’m looking for a company to do a good pre purchase inspection on a Ferrari 458 I’m considering buying. Ideally somewhere in/near Birmingham. Who would people recommend?
Thanks

When I bought mine privately I simply got the local main dealer (in this case Stratstone) to look at it - they basically did the same inspection they would do if you were buying the car from them - picked up a couple of minor things and I was impressed at the detail they went to. Importantly they plug it in and read the computer - few independents would have this capability. Price was reasonable too, just a couple of hours labour charge, so was around the £300 mark.

that was over 4 years ago and the car has been perfect ever since.

Thats what I did too - Birmingham Ferrari. I got the seller to pay for it, and serviced there at the same time.
