The CURSE of My $1M (!!!) Ferrari Purosangue!

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 พ.ค. 2024
  • I can't believe this has happened again! My Ferrari Purosangue has been cursed during this Euro tour, but it's time to drive all the way from Monaco to The Shmuseum. Along the way, we need to talk about the current insane values of the Ferrari Purosangue and the offers I've received!
    We've been on the road for two weeks, and it's been a fortnight filled with cancellations, delays, holdups, problems and not one puncture, but now a second as well! After picking up a nail in Belgium which we luckily were able to resolve with a new tyre at Maranello Motors Ferrari Koln, I never thought we might get a second on the same trip, but thankfully this one is easily repaired and a trip to Le Pneu by Stars MC just outside of Monaco is the solution we needed to get the drive underway.
    After setting off from the South of France, the route takes us up the Autoroutes to a night stop in Lyon, before continuing onwards via a checkpoint at the Eiffel Tower in Paris. It's then onwards to the Eurotunnel crossing under The English Channel and back home to The Shmuseum. Along the way, we can talk about what's happened with the market value for the Ferrari Purosangue; of course a car in very high demand but with exceptionally few cars already delivered - and those only offered to customers who like myself are passionate about the brand and have no interest in selling them.

    I think one of the most impressive things Tim ever does with his cars, isn't all the miles, or refusing to sell for massive profits, or the crazy colour schemes, it's that he willingly takes them to not only deal with Parisian drivers, but he also willingly takes them around the Arc de Triomphe roundabout!

      @@BMH1965 There are ways around that though, it's been done plenty of times. Obviously, doing so can make it harder for you to get Ferrari's in the future, especially the limited/special ones, so it probably wouldn't be a smart move on Tims part. However, it's certainly possible to sell cars like these for the massively inflated amounts they go for when in high demand.

    Tim..This is what you do best….travel reporting and showing us just what it is like to own and drive cars few will ever own. It is totally correct to drive yours..a 2 mile garage ornament is not a car but only a possession. Yours has miles and history which I don’t think will dent its value long term…it might even enhance it! Have a wonderful Christmas and keep driving…I’m looking forward to the Roma Spyder….that is just about the only new one I could aspire to….then the insurers would laugh at the idea!

    Glad you found the E-Movis tag helpful, I found it worked sometimes or not, and it took ages to raise the barrier, at least twice I had to reverse out and approach a different barrier with resultant swear words from other car users, and I notice you just waved the sensor about rather than affix it to the windscreen. It spoiled my holiday, approaching dozens of tollbooths with dread in case it didn't work. I'm not sure it's cheaper either.

    I know another of the lucky ones that has a first allocation Purosangue. He has had a number of Ferraris as well as a few other high end supercars and he says this is an absolutely fascinating automobile. To date, his most favorite car he has owned because it fits seamlessly into every road car desire category he could have in a car he could literally drive everyday. Personally I think it’s uniquely beautiful in pretty much every way. Ferrari smacked it out of the park with this car for sure. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

    I made a similar trip in a rented Audi A5 TDI 3.0 and it seemed just as nice as driving that Ferrari. The four-wheel drive really stuck to the road driving from Switzerland to the French Alps.
    Frankly, once you're on the Autoroute, I don't see what difference the badge on the nose of the car makes.

    Ya kno, you can buy a good kit for £20 and you can do it yourself? It’s pretty straightforward, take a pair of pliers, take out whatever is in it, ream out the hole with the ream tool and make it slightly bigger and rough up the rubber, then use the other tool in the kit to install the plug with some rubber cement on it and then trim the plug. It could keep you on the road and will last til you get back to the UK…
    Or you pay a tire shop £40-50 to do it and they use a patch by taking the tire off the rim and seal inside. Just a thought

    I don't have a good feeling about the Ferrari prices. No matter which model, from the 360 to the LaFerrari, they've all gone up. This is a clear sign of a bubble, but I have no idea when it will burst.
    1 million for an SUV is just too much, especially because the predecessors FF and GTC4Lusso were not really successful, there was no oversticker and Shmee bought them used instead of new.
    I trust Manny Khoshbin. He canceled his SF90 allocation because they wanted to sell him numerous other cars like the Purosangue. He doesn't currently have a Ferrari in his collection, even though his son is called Enzo. I know other collections who have every car from Porsche to Pagani except Ferrari.
    I had the same feeling at Ferrari Munich. Unbelievably unsympathetic. I wanted to find out about the 296 GTB, which I can't afford at the moment, but maybe in 1-2 years. Then I decided I'd rather burn the money than give it to these morons and ordered an M3 xDrive on the same day and have had a lot of fun ever since. Next goal Lamborghini.

Tyre replaced on Saturday and all tyres checked as part of the Tyre Shops usual practice.

But shmee is one of the few that allign with the expectation ferrari has for its customers. He also moved up in status by owning 3 brand new ferraris + the roma + the fxx.
      Just wait a few years and puresangues will be as common as a lambogini urus or a g63 (if ferrari is able or willing to fullfill customer demand). Prices will go down. I am also pretty sure that ferrari will make an entry level puro.
