Ferrari 550 Maranello

This is THE review I've been itching to write, and as one of my friends here has recently reported on the Lamborghini, I'm taking my turn !!! Ferrari is one of the most evocative names in the world, but their cars are more refined in appearance, you have to be a very "in your face" person to drive a Lamborghini. A Ferrari is speed and elegance epitomised and embodies the ethos of it's founder Enzo Ferrari. Ferrari in this country is looked after by Ferrari U.K. (Maranello Concessionaires Ltd.) The web site is www.Ferrari.co.uk, and is well worth a visit by all car enthusiasts. The U.K. company was founded by Colonel R.J. "Ronnie" ...  Read the complete review

Maranello is not only the name of the very latest Ferrari model. Maranello, at the foot of the Apennines, can also be considered at the Mecca of those passionate about cars, the Holy Land of all Ferrari lovers.

The 550 Maranello is not the most expensive or valuable Ferrari. As an individual model it has no history andunlike so many others of the marqueno race victories.It looks understated. The Maranello is neither the most powerful or fastest road Ferrari either. Nor does it sound the best. Butto usit's the best. For a supercarthere's excellent leg and headroom and the driving position is perfect. The glorious gearstick even moves when and where you want it - a rarity in the more powerful Ferraris. There's also a large luggage shelf and good boot space. There's certainly nothing wrong with the handlingthanks to clever electronics - ...  Read the complete review
