HISTORY/DOCUMENTATION
This Ferrari F 430 was delivered new by Ferrari VIP Service GmbH in Leipzig, Germany. The car has always remained in Germany, has been dealer maintained and has an exceptionally low mileage of 15,226 kilometres. This mileage is also evident from the completed service booklet that comes with the car. The original warranty certificates, manuals and instruction, service and dealer booklets are also included with the car. These are neatly stored in the stylish brown leather dashboard folder. Maintenance invoices and registration papers are also included with the car. As this model was built in 2009/2010, it is one of the last production years. As a result, the car has been further developed and upgraded compared to older models.

EXTERIOR
The Ferrari is finished in the stylish colour ‘Daytona Black’ (colour code 508). This colour is quite rare on the F 430 and contrasts beautifully with the bright yellow brake calipers and the distinctive ‘Scuderia’ Ferrari shields on the front wings of the car. The paintwork of the car is still original and in very good condition. The lighting and windows are also neat: everything points to the low mileage. The beautiful and optional ‘Challenge’ 19" alloy wheels are also in excellent condition with no damage. A fantastic extra on this car is the rear diffuser, which is made of carbon fibre. Pininfarina's design is still praised for its timeless design and details that nod to other legendary models, such as the mirrors referring to the Testarossa, the rear lights to the Enzo Ferrari and the large air intakes in the front bumper to racing cars from the 1960s.

INTERIOR
The interior is in excellent condition and even smells like new! It is finished in “Nero Black” with leather upholstery. Although the F 430 is a fast sports car, the interior provides the occupants with more than enough comfort. Think air conditioning and an alarm system. The interior also features attractive and valuable options: a radio/CD player with a Bluetooth system (new price £2,387), electrically adjustable seats (new price £3,601) and rear parking sensors. There is also an automatic fold-out navigation screen and a Bose surround sound system. The interior has a sporty finish with carbon trim parts on the dashboard and door sills. The automatic 6-speed gearbox can be operated using paddles on the steering wheel. The steering wheel also features a striking start button and a rotary knob that can be used to adjust the car's dynamics (manettino), something that Ferrari first introduced on the F430.

TECHNICAL
Behind the front seats is the 4.3-litre V8 engine (F136), which was completely newly developed at the time. With 490 hp (at 8500 RPM), its performance is still impressive: the car, weighing approximately 1,500 kg, sprints to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds and has a top speed of no less than 315 km/h. The brake discs are ceramic, which ensures significantly improved braking performance (even at high temperatures), a longer service life and weight savings. The Ferrari drives and shifts gears perfectly, of course, and provides a fantastic driving experience. Even the engine compartment (visible under the glass bonnet) still looks like new. The rims are fitted with Pirelli P-Zero tyres, which are still in good condition. The car has been dealer-maintained and has had servicing at the following mileage intervals:
- 3,586 km (2012)
- 7,692 km (2015)
- 9,796 km (2017)
- 13,206 km (2024)

GENERAL
The Ferrari F 430 was introduced in 2004 as the successor to the 360 Modena. With a completely new engine, a completely new design and significantly improved performance, it was a radically changed car and a great success for Ferrari. The aerodynamics were improved by no less than 50%. The chassis and many body parts are made of aluminium. The car has an advanced electronic differential. Thanks to Pininfarina's timeless design, it is still a very popular model among car enthusiasts. The F 430 was also available as a Spider and in a few limited and sportier models. In 2009/2010, the model was succeeded by the 458 Italia.
