Financing an F40
Eighties cars are now firmly collectable, and the best examples trade well above tidy ones. Lenders look closely at mileage, service history and whether a car is original or modified.
The F40 was built 1987 to 1992 in Italy and is recorded with a twin-turbocharged tipo f120a/f120d 90° v8 , styled by Leonardo Fioravanti; Pietro Camardella. Those details matter to a lender only insofar as they support a valuation: what is being funded is a specific car with a specific history, not a model line.
A company usually takes hire purchase or lease purchase on a car like this. A certified high net worth buyer borrows under the exemption. An owner who already has the F40 in the garage can raise money against it instead. In each case the lender wants an independent valuation, evidence of condition and a clear view of how the borrowing is repaid.

Questions
Can my company buy a Ferrari F40 on finance?
Yes. A limited company or LLP can buy on hire purchase or lease purchase, with the agreement in the company name. It is not regulated consumer credit, whatever the amount. How the car is treated for tax depends on how the business uses it, so speak to your accountant.
Is an F40 too old to finance?
Age on its own is rarely the obstacle. Specialist lenders assess the car, its provenance and an independent valuation rather than applying a cut-off year, so a 1987 to 1992 car can often be financed, subject to status and lender criteria.
Can I raise money against an F40 I already own?
Often, yes, and the car normally stays with you. The lender takes security over it, and how much can be raised depends on the valuation and on how readily that model sells. We arrange this for companies and for certified high net worth owners.
I want an F40 for personal use. Can you help?
That would be regulated consumer credit, which requires FCA authorisation we do not hold. Send the enquiry anyway: it is handled through one of our regulated partners, and we tell you which firm before anyone contacts you.
