Here's Why The Ferrari FF Is The Ultimate £100,000 Used Car - And You Need To Buy One NOW

In today's video I am looking at what I believe could be the finest car you can buy for £100,000. Costing £250,000+ when new, and fitted with a Ferrari V12 mated to a complex but clever AWD system, is the FF really a car you can use all year round and should you consider one over a new RS6?

My FF is the car I most regret parting with. I did 20,000 very happy miles in it, including the Ferrari 70th anniversary rally. Crossing the Alps in that with 500 other Ferraris and the rozzers looking the other way courtesy of Ferrari was one of the best motoring experiences ever.

[@dansutherland70]

Oh and for load space, I once loaded it up with 3 small armchairs (in bits) 7 carry on size bags, assorted carrier bags of stuff and a road bike.

I didn't go much on my FF when I still owned one. Sure, it was practical'ish, reasonably quick and had a nice note, but it just didn't make me feel anything. My Bugatti Veyron, on the other hand? Well. Impractical? Yes. Guzzles fuel? Absolutely. Better than both Ferraris, a Lamborghini and McLaren that I've owned previously? By a country mile. This car, the Veyron, is just absolutely mind blowing.

[@ps8967]

Just took delivery of my FF to replace my f355 spider after 20 years ownership.. First trip was into wales. They are obviously totally different cars and initially I felt I was missing the raw Ferrari experience of the manual 355 and I felt a little sad, but I then set the FF into sport mode!!!! And bang The Ferrari beast came alive...totally unbelievable!!! I had to laugh out load and I could not stop smiling and I fell more in love with it as the miles clicked by. This is a true mega Ferrari that is full of Italian passion and the best thing is I can share it with my family and friends.. It is also so classy and cool, plus such a smooth GT cruiser when you want it to be.. It has to be Ferrari's best kept secret..

​@@Fee.1 well, sort of.. Back in the 90's F1 engines were limited to displacement(3.5L lowered to 3L after Senna's death) and natural aspiration, cilinder count was whatever you wanted but all teams transitioned to V10's because they were best of both worlds between a V8 and V12, with Ferrari being the last team to make the transition to V10, with 412T2(used for 1995 season) being last V12 F1 car.

So glad you drove one at last, you can still have a shot of mine if you're up in Scotland any time. I've had many cars, including about 15 Porsches (inc stuff like 993 turbo), several Maserati, M cars and the FF is the best of them all. Thanks for the honest and enthusiastic review, I think it's one of the best modern cars produced and at last becoming more appreciated.

This review further encourages me to recommend Jay Emm for the award as the best car reviewer on KZbin - if not anywhere. I couldn’t agree more with his views on the FF - I test drove one up for private sale 2 years ago and still haven’t been able to fully reconcile the number of dimensions of ecstasy that V12 offered. My life - as the saying goes - has never been the same since.. Jay Emm tells it like it is - has his own carefully elucidated opinions and as he isn’t selling anything or beholden to any manufacturers his channel is essentially one of the only places you can find a real opinion.

Hello James, thank you for this magnificent presentation of the Ferrari FF! I fully agree with you on all levels. I own an FF and I am completely fascinated by it! I had the chance to drive a lot of nice cars in my life so far - but none can match a Ferrari FF. The combination of talents is unbeatable. The money to pleasure ratio is just fantastic. Anyone who has the chance to get one of these shoudl go for it. I have a Maserati 3200 gt manual and an FF in the garage - and I am in automotive heaven! :-) Cheers.

GTC4 is for people with even higher expectations, but for me the FF will do. Both designs are very good, I just like the FF a little bit better. And as far as power and performance is concerned - more than enough, they are both way too fast! For more information, see also the FF review of Doug DeMuro on KZbin. Cheers!

Great review Jay. Without having driven either it sounds like the GTC4Lusso is to the FF what the 2017 GTR was to earlier models - easier to live with every day but less a drivers car.

Geez Jay! I don't know what to say!? That was a brilliant review and sums up exactly how I feel about my ownership, although I'm only a few months in now. When people ask me what i think about mine i think I will just point them to this video as you articulated my thoughts perfectly. When asked what I will replace it with one day I have absolutely no idea. The Lusso is, like you say, a better daily but no necessarily a better drivers car, in fact I think its too sanitised. (by comparison of course) For me, a couple of things niggle me which i am working my way through; first is those amber side repeaters, I changed mine for clear. Second is the ride height, like most Ferrari's the gap in the wheel arches is just too much. As you said, you didn't need to use the lift and that tells you everything you need to know about how high it sits. I have 2 axle lift so I will be lowering mine. Third is the noise. If I could drive around with the rear hatch open all day I would! The sound coming out the back is glorious but not enough of it gets in the cabin, So I'm hoping a Novitec fixes that. Other than that i feel its the perfect car and one I can share (as I do) with my family. I can take the kids to car meets, do the school run and euro jaunts (when we're allowed - cant wait!) Keep up the good work!

Still has a V12 up front, adequate (4.8 0-60, 193 top speed) performance if you want to keep your licence....The newer Ferraris just don't do it for me, stupendous performance : yes, silly prices: yes. Good looks: er, maybe...458 still very pretty but still TOO much money! Flogged the 355 after 10 years and much fun. Absolutely didn't buy it as an investment but paid £35K, sold for £75K...minus the odd bit of maintenance....haha, ask any 355 owner about that! Now that I'm an old fart I thought a front-engined 4-seater V12 would satisfy the craving without upsetting the wife. She actually said, ooh I like the colour (blue TDF) and found it 'quite comfortable'. Thank God for small mercies. Cheers from a (slightly sweaty) Otford, Kent.

So having watched this, it helped my decision and I’ve now bought one for £83k. Comes next week :) Fingers crossed nothing expensive breaks! Upgrading from an RS3 that got robbed. I thought about an RS4/6 but, this is a Ferrari, and the maths might work out…£23k deposit, £330 month. Keep it for 2 years before the balloon is due. Cant see it depreciating much more, just servicing and running costs as comes with warranty. Plus, Ferrari V12…

An FF for 83k? Cool story bro.

[@Taylor40667]

Not a Ferrari warranty ..?

How are you getting on with it?

[@alexmiller315]

@@mattarmstrong6298 i sold it. It was a lovely car, but i bought a lemon and ended up spending £20k on jt, including a PTU refurb. I had to get rid. If you buy one, get a pre purchase inspection by Ferrari. But as a car, it was a beautiful amazing machine. Most comfortable car ive ever had, and if you want to, you can have a lot of very rapid fun surrounded by V12. Dont ever buy a car from GVE.

What did you go to after the FF? I daily an S65 coupe and considering the next car. Thinking between $160k USD for an FF or $230k for a GT3touring.

Hi JayEmm, always love your review of Ferraris. I was watching your review of the Portofino and I briefly recall you mentioning the GTC4Lusso. To me it sounded like your pick for a Ferrari would be a GTC4Lusso. Did I misunderstand you? I am looking to buy my first Ferrari and trying to choose between the GTC4Lusso and FF. It appears lately that the FF has starting moving back up the depreciation curve getting closer to price of used GTC4Lusso. Your thoughts?

Looks better than the GTC4 Lusso. Your video just increased FF prices by 10%. Great stuff!
