Me, currently struggling to afford to save for a Civic: I better give this a look 😂
My lumina is making noise time for an upgrade 😂🤪
I’m watching this just in case I fall into a pit of money.
I went from a civic to a 2009 ferrari f430 coupe black on tan! U can do it
This was brilliant. Owned mine now for 5 years. Still brings a smile to the face every time you go for a drive.
one thing i've realized as a mechanic it's not actually that bad to own & fix ferrari's. you see owners channels say "i got my ferrari serviced cost 8 grand for timing belts & spark plugs...", first thought is big money to fix them.. then you find out spark plugs are still only 15-20 bucks each, timing belts are a few hundred just a bit more than any other car etc. If those big bills are mostly from high rate labour, than doing it yourself makes them feasible to pay the high purchase price to get one.
Exactly any car becomes expensive if u pay someone else to do the labour.
Excellent video, Ian B is very watchable unfortunately the same can’t be said of our compère who makes a painful job of appearing to be interested.
Excellent review and advice. I had my 2004 360 Modena F1 for 13years now. Simply fantastic and a reliable car. Always an occasion driving the 360. I will probably keep my 360 till I can’t physically drive it!
How much was spent on maintenance and repairs?
One good check on the F1 system is that when you open the door the pump should only run for a few seconds. If it runs for a long time it means the pressure accumulator isn't holding pressure; the pump should be just doing a quick top-up. On the dry sump system, it's not just temperature that changes the level on the stick. When the engine stops, oil drains out of the tank into the bottom of the engine. When you start it and run it up the pumps suck the oil back out of the pan and into the tank. So checking it when the engine hot is more about it having run for long enough to let the pump do its work.
What an article for someone thinking of buying a 360. Looked at a vid earlier that scared the life out of me. This one has calmed me and put me back on track to maybe treat myself when my retirement comes in a couple of years. Thanks guys. 🙏🏼
(Edit) “calmed because Barkaways and indeed Ian, are 10 minutes from my house, I must add.
The absolute best 360 video on CZcams.
My car literally in 25k miles of ownerships needed almost nothing.. literally it was a rock solid car, aside from the belts and clutch which I did 23k miles, if I buy another, I will get a STICK
This guy is awesome! So knowledgeable. Invaluable, straightforward advice. Thank you!
It was a great education for me. I learned so many things about the 360 today. It’s such a beautiful car to look at and of course a brilliant car to drive. If you look after it it will look after you. Same applies to every vehicle out there. I must confess though that my favourite Ferrari is the 488 Pista. Keep up the good work guys! Cheers!
CC presenter’s such a Porsche fella…
Everytime he hears ”these engines are really good” he’s genuinly flabbergasted. He really believes Ferrari’s just for looks… 😄
Excellent insight and knowledge on the 355 and 360. I learned so much from his expertise. Thank you.
I've driven both. Still got a F355. You can't beat an early manual F355. All Ferrari's are special, but if you want the full character and connection to the car, a F355. No traction control, and that noise! Buy a good one and look after it.
Thanks for this guide, some useful information I didn't know about. I'm loving my 360, they're great cars.
Thanks for putting together. Such a great video. I just bought my first 360 spyder. Your video has been a wealth of information. Thanks so much!
The back to back comparison is dope !
Now this was a very informative video. That also explained the smoke issue on one of the cars I looked at. Thanks.
This is one of the most accurate and informed videos on Ferrari 360s. Nicely done.
Such a fantastic watch, as someone about to buy a 360! Thank you.
Absolutely awesome!
Thank you for such a thoughtful look at the 360
Bravo gentlemen!
Just watching the part about the suspension bush replacements, and listening to Mr Barkaway describing British roads - where we live in rural East Anglia I'd blow through a set of those bushes in a month...
Great video! Had my paintwork done at Barkaways and they were brilliant. So good hearing about all the things I have learned over 5 years of ownership.
Can tell you made a great choice! Master mechanic right here. That only comes from experience and doing it. Crazy knowledge
I even got my wife to watch this because this was awesome. Invaluable info right here for us that dream. She wants the 360 btw! Haaaa! Thank you! And she has driven a 308 and a 355.
Great guide thank you.
So thorough and so informative!
This is so nerdy-licious. I love it.
Haaaa! You said that😂
What a fountain of knowledge Ian is
If I ever have a big enough sofa with cash hiding in it, getting Barkaways to do a PPI before splashing out
Both episodes were great.
Can you do a 458 one with Ian?
This video is great, I'm looking for my first Ferrari and the 360 has always caught my eye. A ton of information and things i can look for before a proper ppi. Thanks!
Really insightful video and amazing cars 👏
Outstanding information thank you
That blue 308/328 in the back ground is sumptuous!
Excellent video again 👌
Exceptional presentation 👍.....
Please export the audio in mono ! This left/right editing is tiring
I'd rather they just did a better mixdown tbh.
This channel is absolutely mint! Selling my 98 F355 and going to refer everyone interested to the previous video.

@@sharonbraselton4302 who is that?
Loved this and the 355 video as well, do wish they had given Ian a mic though he spoke the most and then the occasional yep and interesting that was loud and clear 😂
This chap is an encyclopedia
Absolutely amazing
Love these vids. But my god you need a better camera and light. Sam from STG got his resprayed and I don't remember him having to get new lights.
These episodes are terrific and very educational. When are you going to do one on the 599 GTB? Thank you!

Intelligent questions, knowledgeable answers, beautiful car, what's not to like?
Know this is an 8 month old video but this is a great example of why stereo audio must be implemented with respect to the camera! For most of this video the voices of the presenters are coming from the opposite directions from where they're standing! This is who monaural is the standard set up for multiple presenters with clip on mics, I wouldn't be surprised if this audio mixing is tanking the video viewership because otherwise this is a stunningly informative video!
Great video
Serious question regarding checking the oil level when the engine is warm, do you simply place the dipstick in place or do you screw it down test the levels
I would love it if you could do one of these tutorials on the F430 as I’m sure you are similarly informed.
buy it
Great ! Liked it
Can you make one for the 458 “last natural aspirated V8 “
Yes! You know he knows about them! Love those
Spectacular info! Camera guy, be engaged with the discussion and film the part of the car they are talking about.
Was there a car 355/360 swap during the test drive?
I got new straps for my 360 from a guy in England who makes them .... Just fantastic quality..... Look original but much better quality than oem
Great video and very helpful to buyers, but the sound makes it hard work.
Looking forward to the F430 models and beyond

Great info video, just to note Rattarossa managed to get the lens off his scudderia project so doable with care.
Also Nothing Porsche has made ever made is a std to go buy for a comparison !
Grigio metallico spyder for me, please. Manual, if possible.
A few years back when they could be found between 60-80k I was shopping around for one. Now they are double that sadly so I can't justify it as its beyond what I can do comfortably. Such a beautiful car.
no they arent? they are still 60-80k lol, the manuals are the one that are 110k and upwards

Brilliant guide,just buy a manual coupe and half the problems are gone!
Do F430 Spider next please
I’ve been toying with one for years but can’t bring myself to leave 911s behind.
The 360s are lovely but there’s no getting away from the fact they are mega high maintenance. The balljoints/flamblocs lifespan is a joke. Then there’s the sticky buttons and other cosmetic woes. I viewed a few last summer but instead of thinking “I want one!” , I just thought “I can’t be bothered with the hassle”.
The itch just won’t go away though.
Unfortunately this is the price
@@jokwon7343
Yep and just not worth it to someone who actually uses their car.
My GT3 does everything better, bar noise. The extra running costs just don’t stack up, much as I love 360s.
@@marky9117 Not everybody likes the Volkswagon Bettle look
@@jokwon7343
Ah ok. That’s the way the conversation is going. Very original. 😄
Not everyone likes the 360’s looks. Your point is?
@@marky9117 you dont get to buy one
WOW! This guy knows his shit.
F1 360s are such a buy currently.
Just buy Sam’s. Job done 😂
Is Sam’s for sale? That would be the one to buy and is my dream spec having the sports seats and CS exhaust.
I feel like the only way to buy Sam's is to buy a challenge stradale and offer him a swap
@@MattDiffey
Ha, probably.
I didn’t know if his had appeared for sale somewhere. I think he’ll let it go this year. You can tell from how he was talking.
After witnessing how he puts new greasy tyres in the new GT3 without protecting the interior... Not so sure, mate.
@@marky9117 id say he has already shifted some of his cars with the Gt3 buy. It will be interesting to see if the 360 was one of them.
Separating the headlights isnt that complicated actually…I will be doing mine
Might I suggest spending a bit more on an audio engineer for these, you could have made the audio experience so much more enjoyable with better mixing as well as cutting off the mic that didn't need to be active. I didn't really need to hear every nose/throat clear or coffee slurp.
Guys please help.. should I trade my R8 for a 360??
I have to say, there were a few inaccuracies like the rads in a 360! They’re in the front matey! Behind the grilles you looked at in the first 60 seconds!
The early spiders made in 99’ um NO the spider followed two years after the Modena’s 1999 release so early spiders are a 2001 age!
Sorry, just need to be more accurate if your trying to help buyers…

Or Advice even... ;)
still good to buy??
Yea find one online for 75-80K drive for few years and barley loose anything on resale value.
@@lows6427 f1 mission also good? Manual is too expensive now haha
To me the 360 is a real low point in Ferrari design. The 355 and 348 both looked great, small and perfectly formed. The following 430 was OK, and the 458 absolutely beautiful. The 360's front looks 'soft', almost boat-like, and the headlights look like a cheap afterthought.
Yes that’s true so hopefully the prices go down from us talking about it! I still want a 360 tho, just for that reason
absolutely agree ! 355 , 430 , 458 Nobody wants a 360 😁🫢
not just you, most everyone. They looked like crap new and are even worse today. Some of us have an eye for beauty:) No manufacturer can knock it out of the park every time, obviously. I can't think of a model I like less!
Agayn
my old car, making me regret selling it
Let Ian talk without interruptions, please.
People will put up with bad image quality but they won't put up with bad audio quality, seriously this is basic stuff
shutup you minge
Really interesting video presentation.The 360 Spyder looks beautiful with the roof canopy down, stupid with it up. However when describing the engine on a 360 as "bombproof" then go on to describe all the faults and things that go wrong....A gearbox that's good for 20,000 miles? But only if you understand how to use it?. All Ferraris are money pits, no question about it.

Just tint the lights, it looks good they're kinda ugly anyhow
The interviewer is a distraction .... Otherwise great video
Owned multiple 360 and 430. Expect bills of around the £10,000 mark if you buy a bad one. Get a reputable specialist (not a dealer) to check it before you buy one. The 360 and 430 can be absolute money pits. Elsewhere I listed a host of issues. The CZcamsr deleted it. Welcome to the Ferrari industry. No one wants you to know the truth about these cars. There are good ones about, but there are plenty of bad ones. Why? They can cost a ton of money to sort. It isn't rocket science.
(if people want any free info about these cars happy to DM)
I'd love to chat, I'm thinking of buying a 360 spider....
I’m looking at a f612 any feedback?
Oh and a better microphone. If an amateur channel can manage it I think collecting cars can....
Sorry put it next to a 488 and does age, massively....!
Don’t….
Buyers Guide - Don’t! Only buy now if this is the only thing in your life you’ve ever wanted.! The vehicle isn’t going to be financed, and you have no intention of ever selling it. Otherwise, this will be the worst financial decision you ever make.
No, the worst financial decision would be the way most people go, buy a new car keep a few years lose tens of thousands in depreciation then do it all again😆, 360 for me😎
Dumbest comment on here. For way too many reasons to list....
F355 sounds much better than 360.
Or just buy a McLaren that's not heavy as lead with no torque 🤷
I loved Ferrari before the internet. Now I know they are shit for reliability and would never own one.
The real honest buying advice: don't buy a Ferrari unless you don't mind $20k repair bills on the regular.
Totally wrong.
@@matthewpizzi8263, you're right. I should have said $25K.
@@THESocialJusticeWarrior that's just not true. I have owned mine for 10 years and haven't spent that much on it. And I don't work on it myself.
l know these drive great but why is the engineering of whole such rubbish maintainance wise ?? why is toyota better this way for the money??
Here's my advice, don't.
The F1 gearbox is junk. Engine needs to come out for service. It's just a badly designed car.
Why didn't he floor it in the 360? They sound great as well when the valves open
