The Appeal

The California may have revisited one of Ferrari’s best-loved historic names, but it was really a car that pointed the way to the firm’s future. It was the first front-engined V8, first to be equipped with the lightning-fast DCT dual-clutch system and the first to feature a clever retractable hard top. These innovations all make the California one of the most usable and engaging Ferraris of recent times. These immersive cars are perfect for indulgent weekend drives or longer trans-continental runs.

Finished in rare and attractive Rosso Fiorano, a more subtle alternative to Rosso Corsa, matched with a lovely cream Cuio interior with embossed Daytona seats, this 2010 California is in very good order and has covered just 41,000 miles from new. The service book shows 10 stamps, all except the most recent by Ferrari main dealers. The last service was in February 2025, since when the car has covered few miles. The current MOT runs to January 2027 with no advisories.

Supplied with car cover, handbooks and a recently detailed engine bay, this is a very nicely specified example of these usable supercars.

The vendor says:

“Serviced on 8th Feb 2025 and all seems in good order. No modifications. I love the engine roar when I take it out for a run on the local A roads. It's great fun to drive.”

Hello! I bought the car around 15 months back. All docs are in the photos so what is missing is missing. I had a friend look over the car but certainly wasn’t a major check
