If you mean this one:
https://www.amarisupercars.com/stock/details/2014-...

It has been 315k for several months, one of the cheapest around but they don't seem able to sell it whereas similar cars have been selling for 350-400k at Ferrari dealers.

So there is either some questionable history on this car or a strong dislike for Amari ?

Yes I’ve been thinking the same
it looks to be a high spec carbon car and harness just minus that stripe

It also caught my eye, but the value being some way off in comparison I’ve dismissed it.

If it’s too good to be true & all that!

Buy the car, not the seller although in my experience Amari couldn't have done enough for me when I was looking. Car looks amazing in the photos and the service history looks good, perhaps people simply want main dealer facilities such as Factory warranty?

It does look incredible in the pictures
Being a 2014 car with 10k miles and no stripe is the £315k not realistic and around what it should be tho?

I have no idea on values so I'm no help.

I think you’ve just nailed it for me. That main dealer warranty does give added confidence.

If Amari are willing they could send the car to a dealer for warranty inspection and I think a warranty can then be applied or can be three months later. Maybe something worth enquiring about.

2yr warranty on a Speciale I am guessing is what about £7000 ?

That’s pretty much what I did Gibbo.

Also when I bought my 458 from a specialist, I phoned up the main dealer that had been servicing it and asked about the history - it should all be recorded on their system. They told me it was a great car and they knew it well. That might give you a bit more confidence. But I would strongly suggest diving deep into its history and get a full Ferrari inspection first.

Hi guys,

The car has had a full 190 point check with a Ferrari dealer before we purchased it, welcome to have another done before any purchase, a service carried out late last year, which came with a clean VHC,

Feel free to call us,
