Worth knowing
What these cars actually need.
On the older V8s the cam belt service is the big one, and on some models it genuinely is an engine-out job. We’ll tell you honestly which yours is, what the interval should be given how the car is actually used, and what it costs before anything comes apart.
Clutch wear on an F1 car is measurable, not a guess. We read it, tell you the number, and tell you how long you realistically have. Replacing a clutch that has life left in it is a common and expensive piece of advice elsewhere.
Most Ferraris cover few miles, and sitting causes its own problems — fluids, fuel, tyres, batteries and seals. If a car has been parked for a season or more, we recommission it in the right order rather than simply servicing it and handing it back.
The alternative
Dealer-level work, without the dealership.
The nearest Ferrari dealer is a drive and a wait. We’re independent, in Belmont, and you talk to the technician who worked on your car rather than a service advisor reading from a screen.
Routine maintenance here often comes in at about half what a dealer charges. Same fluids, same specifications, same documentation \u2014 you are simply not paying for the showroom.
Most services and brake jobs are a day or two. Where a part has to come from overseas we say so before the car comes apart, not after.
Federal law protects this, and we document every job so it can be proved. Your service history stays complete and the car stays saleable.
Where we are
Ferrari service across the Peninsula.
Owners bring cars to us from across the San Mateo Peninsula — San Mateo, Burlingame, Hillsborough, Atherton, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Woodside, Redwood City and San Carlos — and from further up the 280 when the alternative is a dealership appointment weeks out. We’re on Old County Road in Belmont, minutes from both freeways.

FAQ
What Ferrari owners ask us.
Will servicing my Ferrari here affect the factory warranty?
No. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act a manufacturer cannot void your warranty simply because an independent shop carried out the maintenance. We service to factory intervals, use the correct parts and fluids, and document every job so your service history stands up.
How does the cost compare with the dealer?
Routine maintenance on a Ferrari is often around half what a dealer charges, and sometimes less. Same fluids, same specifications, same documentation — the difference is that you are not funding a showroom and a service advisor.
How long will you have the car?
Most scheduled services and brake jobs are a day or two rather than the week or more a dealership often needs. Where a part has to come from overseas we will tell you that up front rather than after the car is apart.
Do you use genuine parts?
Genuine or OE-equivalent as standard, and we will tell you which we are proposing and why. Where a quality aftermarket option genuinely makes sense we will offer it as a choice rather than substituting it quietly.
Can you inspect a Ferrari before I buy it?
Yes, and it is money well spent on these cars. We put it on a lift, read the fault history, check the service record against what the car actually shows, and tell you plainly what you would be taking on.
