    Great video and guide! I own a 2015 and maintain it myself, and you covered all the major potential issues.

      That's brilliant. How did you learn? I would like to do the same myself, or at least be better at not buying bad examples.

      @@Spenny909 I've always been a DIY guy. Maintained an old 928S4 for 20 years. That thing was way more complex than the 458. Start with an oil change. There's vids showing how to do it for most cars. Just jump in and do it!

    I have a 2011 458 Italia, 54,000 km. Absolutely love the car! No issues. The only maintenance has been regular oil changes (and the brake system recall - although never had an issue there either).

  • @MrGB1999
    @MrGB1999 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The problem with many of the gearbox issues is that even the repair (as opposed to replacement) involves buying an entire pack of sensor components (even if just one sensor is bad) - and that pack is something around the £10,000 mark. Oh, and Ferrari isn't exactly great at keeping up sensor production. So at some point, finding replacement sensors will likely become an issue, too..
    The best advice with a 458 purchase is to get one with a Ferrari Power Warranty attached, or get one independently (about 3 grand - and that's AFTER Ferrari main dealer says the car is OK.. 💸💸)

    Hi mate, I have two questions. 1. I am 6"4 in your opinion would I be able to fit into this Super Car? You don't look so tall and your head is very close to the roof. 2. Can you customize a second-hand Ferarri? I was told customization is reserved for brand-new cars only.
    Your feedback would be much appreciated.
