I doubt it. I hope not. I feel like the GT3 will be a short term car but the 360 is a keeper. Unless as you say someone made him a offer that he couldn’t turn down…
Props for doing what 99% of owners wouldn’t do. Not only driving the car as it should be driven but bringing it back to showroom condition every service. That’s intense. For what it’s worth, I think you’ll regret selling that thing. Terrific content as usual.
Sam, my thoughts for what its worth - You are getting your GT3 very soon and there will be content with that as as you have said you have a very busy start to the new Year, so I think once you are driving other cars for a while this will renew your engagement and passion for your 360. But the biggest thing is this past year you have done so much with it and created so many amazing and unique memories like the Mille Melia and the photos above the clouds in the Canaries. I am sure of one thing... if you sell it you will regret it. Keep up the continuously "bar-setting" channel its is one of the very very best out there these days for honest, original and superbly produced content. all the best for Christmas and 2023, Ben
You talk about the CS so much that it’s clearly something you need. You’ve loved that car and used it to the max but that empty feeling is the realisation it’s not the pinnacle for you anymore. Easy to say, harder to admit and almost impossible to action. I don’t envy you!
I think it’s very much that, you’ve used it amazingly well you’ve also done a lot of what you said you’d do. All the plans you made you’ve done. We as humans need milestones and plans and maybe now that you’ve done all of that you feel like you don’t have much of a use for it now? Either way it’s your decision, I hope you don’t sell it but regardless we’ve really enjoyed the videos and memories you’ve made with it.
Sam, through you, the 360 is like our own now. Anything happens to it and we're all worried. Was so glad to see it doing well, and wow! PPF for the win! Giving you and the 360 a thumbs up and waiting for great content once again as we move into the new year
AV engineering treat you so well, i just wish they'd pay that same attention to normal people too. I messaged them asking about some stuff id want do to with my dads f430, and they just completely ignore my messages
On top of the £20k of servicing and maintenance and about £15k of depreciation mentioned, what about the full respray and a few grand spent on the interior and sticky buttons - strikes me as about £20+15+10+5=£45k to cover those Ferrari miles.
This thing has deffo already been sold, if not this video is essentially the ‘walk around’ this is an amazing example of a car so well worth buying. Times clearly up for the 360 - Tony will be pleased!
This is still one of the cleanest F360 examples that I’ve seen. I love this spec. Such a great car. Sam has clearly looked after her. Great content as always. 🤙🏽
I really don't think you should sell it, even though it might be tempting for a CS. On the other hand, 992 GT3, 360 CS and F Pace SVR would be an amazing 3 car garage.
100% impressed with that PPF Sam, it definitely looked as if there was damage to the sill and bumper on your car. All the best for Christmas and the New Year.
@@fredericoespinoza I didn't say PPF was bad, I was just wondering if spending £1000 on PPF or whatever it costs was more than getting a few scratches polished out...
@@thecremeegg just my personal decision but the paint on my F355 is original and the PPF I fitted not only protects the value of that original paint but adds value on resale.

I believe thats the white 360CS that was originally delivered to a customer in Puerto Rico! It's been years since I've seen that car, crazy to see it now in the UK!
Sam never sell the 360 cause through you it stays in our hearts now and seeing it leave would be definitely a very very sad day and an end of a iconic journey of you and the car so pleaseee don't sell itt💔
I personally know exactly what you feel. I cherished a car I bought myself for 10 years, I spent so much on making it my own and thought I'd have it forever. Then in the last year, I noticed it wasn't giving me the same feeling... It went from making me feel like it to just being a metal box that was fun. I ended up selling it. I've sometimes regretted it. But always kept the new ower details just in case
Same here, I was in the comments to see if I’d heard that correctly - it equates to about £15k if I’m working it out correctly and I seem to remember the car was about £80k
Love listening to Alders talk about looking after Sam’s Ferrari, it is great to see someone passionate about providing great service. Also I bet Sam’s found a CS and is going to surprise us in the new year
PPF is great stuff. I have my Mustang completely covered and got a hit on the passenger and driver doors this week. Neither door has lost any paint, even thought the PPF has been ripped. To see it work so well on your own car, is a revelation and I reacted the same way you did, Sam.
Funnily enough, the guys in Brisbane that look after it for me are the same guys that did your sponsor stickers for Drive The World. I was at the workshop when you were filming your collection.
@@SH-ly1uy Sure does as my car is also ceramic coated 😜. Also, I’m not stupid enough to turn the TC off unless I’m on a race track or controlled closed road.
Heres a thought... What about keeping yours, Upgrading the suspension to the latest and greatest that KW has to offer, Upgrade all the bushings, Put some AP Racing road brakes on it and retrim the interior to exactly what you want and just enjoy the car forever and a day. You use it on the road, are you really going to get more out of a Challenge Stradale other than the ability to say, "I own a challenge stradale!" than you are making your 360 exactly how you want? Also... Could always supercharge it.....!!!!
As someone who until recently owned a manual 360 Modena (Argento silver) with CS exhaust, which then sold it to purchase a CS (yellow, no stripe), I'd say: DON'T DO IT!!!! The CS is a special car, but absolutely NOT an everyday car. I then sold the CS recently as I didn't have the enjoyment in it as I did in my manual Modena. Just my 2 cents.
Not bad Sam, repairs and depreciation on my Ferrari F355 was £2,50 per mile and I used it or it would have been a LOT more. 2-3k miles a year for this would suit you and its worth keeping. its great content, keep it coming.
@J Scott or a 600 mile drive to Rotterdam (that we did) cost £1,500+ petrol at 18mpg and the Targa top leaked in the rain all the way :-( looked cool though :-)
Had expel PPF, left my are in a multi story (first mistake) and a young lady had swung there car into the space next to mine and her bumper ran down my left front quarter and door panel! Lifting all the PPF and black marks... she left a note to say sorry. I genuinely thought the side of the care needed a respray. Anyway, removed the PPF and there wasn't a single blemish. Mind the PPF cost £550 to replace but it saved the paint!
Once you see how good the GT3 is on European road trips, I can’t see you paying to keep the 360 sitting in a garage. £1.40 a mile, plus finance costs, fuel, tyres, & storage costs on top.
do basic stuff change oil every 10k cost - oil and filter thats all ! and if engine gos kaput after somes years , (which it may not)get a second hand replacement i think this may work out much cheaper
I don’t think there’s any point in selling the 360 unless you have the funds to comfortably buy a Stradale or a Scuderia, something along those lines. If not, just keep it.
Great update video! One part of me says don't sell it you would be daft too, the other says you would have the ability to experience ownership of various other lovely marques however one thing is for sure.... if you sold it you would regret it. Keep up the great work Sam love all the content!
Keep it for what it's worth and what you have done, keep it. Sensible running costs relative to buying a new sports car and losing a chunk over 5 years
He's already got a sportcar on order with good resale value (GT3 AND pts)... This will not Lost more than the Ferrari costs over those years, value won't go so much over and extended warranty for the Porsche is a non Brainer.
Fair play Sam, you loved it, you bought it and you used it to create some incredible and irreplaceable memories. Thanks for bringing us all along for the journey. 👍
Seems to me he suggest that 1-3k a year equals a similar amount of maintenance as 5k a year. So might as well drive it. I have a 6 year old Boxster that has cost me 15kAUD in maintenance for comparison (in 4 years at 3k miles a year) obviously cost less at the outset but it shows that old cars have modern maintenance costs… as an aside do you need to do anything next? Can you not be happy with it as it s?
done 43,000 miles in my golf r in 2 years and I have £60,000 in invoices for maintenance repairs and modifications so 25k in 5 years on a Ferrari don't seem that bad tbh
What are you gaining by having a challenge stradale over your 360? Are you going to be happier? Will it really make a difference day to day? Maybe live with a stradale first? Then decide if it’s really worth it? What you’ve done to this 360 has to be worth keeping. You know this car now. Think it’s a keeper? I’m 5 years along with my Arnage. Done similar maintenance. Will a twin turbo T be much better?
I sold my 2015 f-type r coupe I ordered new in my dream spec with ccb’s etc to order a 2022 f-pace svr in svo brg as I had a child - and tbh I don’t regret it at all. Only reason I kept the f-type so long is the engine. Now I get to enjoy that same engine but with added comfort and practicality of a sporty suv, and with an infotainment package vastly superior to even the patchwork system in current f-type….and now awaiting an allocation for a 992 gts manual pts coupe to enjoy with the little bloke
Really liked my facelift SVR and a bit of a bargain vs other choices imo. In the end I found it too wide for me down the lanes I drive plus the local driving mpg is pretty bad but on long runs was good so I let it go - never got used to either aspect. Still miss it and never missed a beat. Keep the 360 just shelve it for bit and the enthusiasm will return. I predict it will out stay the gt3.
Mate spotted a glorious 360 for sale and it's so tempting to swap the AM in & live the italian dream but it wouldn't be as dailyable and would stick out like a sore thumb. Also only got space for one car. Ah so so tempting though. I think you'll miss the 360 if you sell it. Nothing will have the same character, certainly nothing modern. The AM in 4 years has probably cost around 15k tbh with different bits of maintenance and annual servicing etc.
No, the simplest and best way to keep the receipts is to put them in a folder. Keep them well organised and it's always a good sign of a well cared for car.
If he was going to sell it, he missed the window. Six months ago everything peaked and now heading back to normal. That gated six speed would have been a great thing to sell before he did the restoration. Now he owns that cost and may as well drive it for a few years.
Hi just watched your latest video on the Ferrari that you’ve owned for while. Thanks for all what you do and bring content that I enjoy you. Bring it in. Can’t wait for your next video that you bring out and I can catch up on what you’ve done apart from that dish when I wish you your wife and little boy little dog a Merry Christmas and have lots of fun Christmas Day. Cheers buddy
I'm late to this video, but hopefully youve decided to move to an upgrade or fully different platform. This car is great, but time to try something else fulltime.
Great as ususal - thanks! However, what was the cost of replacing the PPF inc polish etc compared to a conventional repair for same damage (bearing in mind no PPF to pay for in first place £4k)?
£20.000 yes is hard to get the head around. Still you know and still love the car so why exchange it for something else?! The garage know the car inside and out also. It’s certainly in safe hands with them!!! An amazing car and a real head turner.
Please don't sell it! It's an amazing car! If you do decide to sell it, please get another Ferrari (may I suggest a 458 Italia 😁), this channel NEEDS a Ferrari on it.
Sam, your doubt of moving on (to a next model) is expected (as yourself did not image this when buying). After doing all the things/events (as you did in the last 5 years) and done many miles there is a time that you are starting to wonder what's next? I have had the same after driving a 328GTS for 80.000km's (in 6 years) and moved up into the F430 (spider/F1) which I own now for 10 years! Anyway it is you we are talking about and I have one very important message. I still regret selling my perfect 328! I had to decide selling it or keep it and due to lack of space (the trading-in price at that time was not as it is now) I decided to trade it in..... I hoped somebody would drive it as I did as it was a perfect example to drive. So my personal advice: keep the 360 if possible but also keep driving it as your mechanic explains in your video (11min) that garage Queens are most sold but not the best cars to drive. Your car was looked after by DK and they made your dream came trough. My 328 started also healthy into my ownership and kept 100% here in NL by same type of workshop (not dealer) . It sold within 3 days due to the condition and good maintenance after the trade-in (and is still at the same owner to this day). The milage was high (98.000km's) but due to good maintenance not a problem. This is what I see throughout the market, dealers/people are scared by high milage as in fact those cars are the best to buy (if you want to drive them). jm2c.
I'm impressed how well you look after that car. Its refreshing to see and certainly a peach for the next owner if there is one. But you have owned it for 1/4 of its life, why not carry that on
It is easy to make assumptions about cars. The 360 manual is one of the all time great drivers cars. On paper others may appear to have more but the 'event' of actually driving them is just not the same. I have spent time driving Ferrari models from this era. 360, 430, 575, 599, the F8 and Roma. The 360 manual just feels more alive and involving. The others are lovely impressive cars but the 360 manual is different, it feels special. If he sells it, its because of running out of new content to create. A business decision unfortunately.
You will regret selling it. Because there is no substitute or get a Challenge but still you'll miss it. Because you have experienced so much with it. Speaking out of experience.
It must be the best looked after 360 with that many miles, great job. About the costs, I am genuinely interested, was it 20K or 25K? And was that AV engineering only or including those buttons etc done by DK engineering and the completely new built up paint work? Also, I would think you get some discounts, fair play, but did you calculate what you paid or what it would be without discounts?
If you go by the numbers then over the 5 years its £20000 at AV engineering for the maintenance and servicing so breaking it down £20000 / 25000 miles is 0.80p a mile. Then they mentioned deprecation being an additional 0.60p per mile so that is 0.60 x 25000 miles so £15,000 so if you add that up it is £20000+£15000 = £35,000. It averages out at £7000 per year for the 5 years of ownership. The buttons, paint work and film is all additional costs on top of the above maintenance, servicing and deprecation.
@J Scott You are right exactly my thoughts, 35K money will just about outright buy a sporty hatchback these days. Although 25k miles worth of fuel in a 360 will be a few quid as well.
Like you Sam old chap I find the F Pace monster rather appealing. Unloved or not considered by many but it has a great deal going for it. A better choice of wheels and interior colours would be nice but worth considering.
It’s always cracks me up how TH-cam content creators create stories to tell how they have fun cars that the normal people will never have the chance to own with a nice rotation. Video goes to show why owning a 360 and keeping it mint condition is not financially smart, unless you’re very wealthy.
If you don't look back at your car, when you leave it parked up, it's become part of the norm of life. It's not a marriage, it's a bit of metal at the end of the day. I know I had multiple dream cars growing up, so I'd say get after fulfilling the dreams you had as a kid.
Why don't you just make the changes necessary to turn it into a challenge stradale? You can make a new series out of it and also get the car of your dreams. I'm no Ferrari expert so it may be easier said than done, but, I feel like it'll be interesting and may spark your love again for the car.
Happy for a CS upgrade until the shot at 10:43. Insane insane looking car. Best Modena out there. Although would be great to see a moon mileage CS! Cheers!

My theory is the 360 has already gone. Sam received an offer he couldn't refuse especially with the GT3 on the way.
I doubt it. I hope not. I feel like the GT3 will be a short term car but the 360 is a keeper. Unless as you say someone made him a offer that he couldn’t turn down…
Yeah. He’s prepping for sale!
Sam has been and always goes on about the challenge since the beginning, so if he had a chance to get one why in the world would he not sell the 360?
I think he already sold it and that white one is secretly the replacement
That would be cool. That white one is awesome.

That white 360 CS looks amazing! I think the SVR swap makes perfect sense as well as the CS hunt. Cheers Sam!

done 43,000 miles in my golf r in 2 years and I have £60,000 in invoices for maintenance repairs and modifications so 25k in 5 years on a Ferrari don't seem that bad tbh
What are you gaining by having a challenge stradale over your 360? Are you going to be happier? Will it really make a difference day to day? Maybe live with a stradale first? Then decide if it’s really worth it? What you’ve done to this 360 has to be worth keeping. You know this car now. Think it’s a keeper? I’m 5 years along with my Arnage. Done similar maintenance. Will a twin turbo T be much better?
I have no idea what that Jag has to do with a Le Mans race car, apart form the name.
I sold my 2015 f-type r coupe I ordered new in my dream spec with ccb’s etc to order a 2022 f-pace svr in svo brg as I had a child - and tbh I don’t regret it at all. Only reason I kept the f-type so long is the engine. Now I get to enjoy that same engine but with added comfort and practicality of a sporty suv, and with an infotainment package vastly superior to even the patchwork system in current f-type….and now awaiting an allocation for a 992 gts manual pts coupe to enjoy with the little bloke
I was at Le Mans for the formation finish, they could really have gone a lot more bonkers on the colour scheme for the jag
Don't do it man. You'll always miss the clickity clack and that valve open scream.
he should get a Golf R
It's crazy when 5000 miles a year is considered a huge amount, and the amount of money you need to spend to keep it running at those "high" mileages.
Jag should've done the project 8 shades of purple and gold
Personally I think you should sell the 360. You've done a lot with it and something new would be exciting for you. Also it costs a lot to maintain
Really liked my facelift SVR and a bit of a bargain vs other choices imo. In the end I found it too wide for me down the lanes I drive plus the local driving mpg is pretty bad but on long runs was good so I let it go - never got used to either aspect. Still miss it and never missed a beat. Keep the 360 just shelve it for bit and the enthusiasm will return. I predict it will out stay the gt3.
add on a grand for new ppf
Mate spotted a glorious 360 for sale and it's so tempting to swap the AM in & live the italian dream but it wouldn't be as dailyable and would stick out like a sore thumb. Also only got space for one car. Ah so so tempting though. I think you'll miss the 360 if you sell it. Nothing will have the same character, certainly nothing modern. The AM in 4 years has probably cost around 15k tbh with different bits of maintenance and annual servicing etc.
Yeh that definitely felt like a farewell video.
No, the simplest and best way to keep the receipts is to put them in a folder. Keep them well organised and it's always a good sign of a well cared for car.
That doesn’t bring in vital sponsorship money though does it?
If he was going to sell it, he missed the window. Six months ago everything peaked and now heading back to normal. That gated six speed would have been a great thing to sell before he did the restoration. Now he owns that cost and may as well drive it for a few years.
Hi just watched your latest video on the Ferrari that you’ve owned for while. Thanks for all what you do and bring content that I enjoy you. Bring it in. Can’t wait for your next video that you bring out and I can catch up on what you’ve done apart from that dish when I wish you your wife and little boy little dog a Merry Christmas and have lots of fun Christmas Day. Cheers buddy
I'm late to this video, but hopefully youve decided to move to an upgrade or fully different platform. This car is great, but time to try something else fulltime.
Hey Sam. You still got the Rs6 around?
Great as ususal - thanks! However, what was the cost of replacing the PPF inc polish etc compared to a conventional repair for same damage (bearing in mind no PPF to pay for in first place £4k)?
Wonderful overview of true ownership, thanks for the honesty Sam.
Depreciation? Here in the US, these manny trans Ferraris are appreciating greatly!
£20.000 yes is hard to get the head around. Still you know and still love the car so why exchange it for something else?!
The garage know the car inside and out also. It’s certainly in safe hands with them!!! An amazing car and a real head turner.
Phew, I thought it was going the way of the 911T! Lots of adventures and then goodbye. BTW, love that SVR
And what about the synthetic fuel? What happened?
Nothing… as in the car ran perfectly. Didn’t affect anything. Aldous noticed no change. Nor did I. Will be doing more on this topic in the new year
@@seenthroughglass Oh I'm glad that everything went well.
Please don't sell it! It's an amazing car! If you do decide to sell it, please get another Ferrari (may I suggest a 458 Italia 😁), this channel NEEDS a Ferrari on it.
Hi Sam, it would be very interesting to see a back-to-back between your fully sorted manual 360 and the Emira...
i probably paid about 5k on a 10k bmw for precisely 5yr ownership and 30k miles driven. 25k on a Ferrari doesn't seem too bad.
Sam, your doubt of moving on (to a next model) is expected (as yourself did not image this when buying).
After doing all the things/events (as you did in the last 5 years) and done many miles there is a time that you are starting to wonder what's next? I have had the same after driving a 328GTS for 80.000km's (in 6 years) and moved up into the F430 (spider/F1) which I own now for 10 years!
Anyway it is you we are talking about and I have one very important message. I still regret selling my perfect 328! I had to decide selling it or keep it and due to lack of space (the trading-in price at that time was not as it is now) I decided to trade it in.....
I hoped somebody would drive it as I did as it was a perfect example to drive.
So my personal advice: keep the 360 if possible but also keep driving it as your mechanic explains in your video (11min) that garage Queens are most sold but not the best cars to drive. Your car was looked after by DK and they made your dream came trough. My 328 started also healthy into my ownership and kept 100% here in NL by same type of workshop (not dealer) . It sold within 3 days due to the condition and good maintenance after the trade-in (and is still at the same owner to this day). The milage was high (98.000km's) but due to good maintenance not a problem. This is what I see throughout the market, dealers/people are scared by high milage as in fact those cars are the best to buy (if you want to drive them). jm2c.
Glad to see the outcome, feared it might have been going to fund the fast VW Beetle :)
I'm impressed how well you look after that car. Its refreshing to see and certainly a peach for the next owner if there is one. But you have owned it for 1/4 of its life, why not carry that on
Just wiping away that 'damage' was so satisfying.
I thought I recognised the location at the start of this video! Kingston. As Tony said on BTG… you’re Surrey now 😂
It is easy to make assumptions about cars. The 360 manual is one of the all time great drivers cars.
On paper others may appear to have more but the 'event' of actually driving them is just not the same.
I have spent time driving Ferrari models from this era. 360, 430, 575, 599, the F8 and Roma. The 360 manual just feels more alive and involving. The others are lovely impressive cars but the 360 manual is different, it feels special.
If he sells it, its because of running out of new content to create. A business decision unfortunately.
Great job by the ppf , how much did it cost to replace the ppf bits you took off ?
You will regret selling it. Because there is no substitute or get a Challenge but still you'll miss it. Because you have experienced so much with it. Speaking out of experience.
Sam, I'd be interested in your car if you want to find a new home for it. I used to have a modified 360 and have been Jonesin for another....
Int cars brilliant! They take you where you want to go.
(Little Fast Show reference there)
It must be the best looked after 360 with that many miles, great job.
About the costs, I am genuinely interested, was it 20K or 25K? And was that AV engineering only or including those buttons etc done by DK engineering and the completely new built up paint work? Also, I would think you get some discounts, fair play, but did you calculate what you paid or what it would be without discounts?
If you go by the numbers then over the 5 years its £20000 at AV engineering for the maintenance and servicing so breaking it down £20000 / 25000 miles is 0.80p a mile. Then they mentioned deprecation being an additional 0.60p per mile so that is 0.60 x 25000 miles so £15,000 so if you add that up it is £20000+£15000 = £35,000. It averages out at £7000 per year for the 5 years of ownership.
The buttons, paint work and film is all additional costs on top of the above maintenance, servicing and deprecation.
@J Scott You are right exactly my thoughts, 35K money will just about outright buy a sporty hatchback these days.
Although 25k miles worth of fuel in a 360 will be a few quid as well.
Like you Sam old chap I find the F Pace monster rather appealing. Unloved or not considered by many but it has a great deal going for it. A better choice of wheels and interior colours would be nice but worth considering.
That 360CS is a Stunner!!!🤍
Where is the RS6????
If you can smell the CS then go for it. It will be worth way more in the future. That would be a great car to keep indeed :)
It’s always cracks me up how TH-cam content creators create stories to tell how they have fun cars that the normal people will never have the chance to own with a nice rotation.
Video goes to show why owning a 360 and keeping it mint condition is not financially smart, unless you’re very wealthy.
If you don't look back at your car, when you leave it parked up, it's become part of the norm of life. It's not a marriage, it's a bit of metal at the end of the day.
I know I had multiple dream cars growing up, so I'd say get after fulfilling the dreams you had as a kid.
The ONLY thing that should replace the 360 is a Challenge Stradale!
The question now is how much does it costs to replace PPF……
Why don't you just make the changes necessary to turn it into a challenge stradale? You can make a new series out of it and also get the car of your dreams. I'm no Ferrari expert so it may be easier said than done, but, I feel like it'll be interesting and may spark your love again for the car.
You might not be wrong!
Happy for a CS upgrade until the shot at 10:43. Insane insane looking car. Best Modena out there. Although would be great to see a moon mileage CS! Cheers!
Love the longer videos!
