Our Verdict
This 2016 Ferrari California offers strong value for money with an unblemished MOT history and low mileage, making it a reliable choice for enthusiasts.
Prioritise verifying the vehicle's service history to confirm regular maintenance, particularly for the 3.855L V8 engine. The 2022 oil leak warning should be rechecked by a specialist to ensure it was fully resolved. Negotiate based on its low mileage and pristine MOT record, but be prepared for premium pricing typical of Ferrari models. Insist on a pre-purchase inspection by an authorised dealer to confirm mechanical integrity.

Common Problems: FERRARI CALIFORNIA
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Battery Voltage-Related Electrical Faults(Moderate)
Like many modern Ferraris, the California becomes noisy electronically when battery voltage drops. Cars that sit unused can throw a wide range of false warnings or behave inconsistently until the power supply is sorted.
- Retractable Hardtop and Roof Latch Faults(Moderate)
The folding roof is a major selling point but adds complexity. Hydraulic issues, sensor faults, or latch problems can leave the roof slow to operate or stuck mid-cycle.
- MagneRide Damper Seepage and Front Suspension Wear(Moderate)
These GT cars carry more weight over the front axle than Ferrari's mid-engined models, so worn bushes, tired links, or leaking dampers are not unusual on UK roads.
