Just saw this car was priced at 90k There is a Cayman GT4 for that price at Romans International, you should look for it ! For the same budget and for daily driving I would look for GT-R or R8 V10
I own the 430 and it has been reliable. I did not get red. I found a great Silverstone Gray color. It’s the best bang for the buck if you want a reasonably affordable Ferrari.
Buy porsche turbo it's amazing daily plus it pull hard and I never see a youtuber drive one that Will make you spécial plzz at least give it a try and if you can get turbo S that gona be perfect ^^
And you know, that ferrari isn't good daily? It is really funny. You probably never even sat in Ferrari, but you know it is not good daily. There are many examples that it can be driven daily. For example it is proved by DailyDrivenExotics. So don't say something until you try.
xXxFuRxXx lol you don't even know me hahah im not gona tell you what I own or that I have been in a ferrari but im gona tell you this im from UAE soo guess by your self cheers mate ^^
I know you are thinking about a corvette but maybe a Dodge Viper would be a good thing to consider despite sharing the same complexities as the corvette
You might want to check out another RUclipsr Daniel Hurlbert who has lots of DIY and info on this car. Also, I don't think you will need to worry about reliability, but Daniel knows a lot about that car. You can ask him, he will always answer. Only real thing will be maintenance items and wear and tear. It seems like a great car. Check maintenance history and get a pre purchase inspection. Good luck. Heidi
Seeing a 15 plate r8 v10 spider for 86k with 8 k on and a 14plate 991 turbo on 14k miles for 93k both pretty new and German so reliable super fast cars.you know it makes sense Archie 👊🏻
When you speak of a certain price bracket you must also take into account the running cost of different cars. An R8 might be the same price as an Second hand Ferrari or Maserati but it is considerably cheaper to run. My brother has an Maserati GT which he bought for a good price but a basic service costs over £900 not even to mention the cost of brake pets and disks once they need replacement.
I just bought an 08 F430 Spider in Rosso Corsa. It’s unbelievably nice and fun to drive. Daily drive? No way in hell. You want to keep the excitement, drive it on the weekend with less traffic. You don’t want to be on and off that clutch in crappy traffic. That’s no fun.
Kept on thinking your windscreen is cracked then I realised I've broken my iPad :( It's very you but no daily. What ever you buy, no chav camo wraps 👍🏽
Ferraris are cool looking but they don't make good daily cars. Most Ferraris tend to have a lot of reliability problems (like catching fire and various break downs). The other issues with daily driving a Ferrari is they only hold their resale value if they aren't driven much at all. I think the Corvette would be a better choice given that it's going to be cheaper to start with. The Corvettes also tend to be pretty reliable and they don't loose tons of money in resale value due to miles driven. Also how many Corvettes to you see in the UK? It's a car that would stand out in a good way in the UK as not everyone has one.
I feel the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS 3.8 2dr or the Porsche 911 3.8 991 Carrera 4 GTS PDK AWD 2dr would be perfect there's a baby blue one and red one on auto trader might be a bit out of your price range but they look amazing.
Test Drive The RS7 Performance and with 89k you could get a brand new one, beats this car in every category including 0-60 and comfort also has 4 doors
i noticed that the paddle shift is on the steering column not on the steering wheel like your amg a45 .. ive got gla45 ...whats better...i can see why you liked the 45 ..i love mine awsome....if you like 2 doors amg gts
Test drove an f430 spider before and it was a special experience, think an r8 v10 for far less money would be a better car overall Ferrari is a rich mans toy but an r8 v10 could be afforded by majority of people who are good at saving......people spend r8 money on mid spec 5 series bmw's
As much as I like that Ferrari (and all Ferrari's for that matter), as a daily, that would depend on if you can afford the potential maintenance. I am by no means a mechanic, but I understand some of those older models need the engine dropped to change a belt and other very expensive maintenance items. Items that, if you are going to daily the car will make the car significantly more expensive to run. Looking forward to your other options.
If you're worried about depreciation don't get the Ferrari with the F1 gearbox, the F430 was the last of the manuals, that will appreciate. Also get a Renault Clio Sport or VW Golf GTI for 2500 pounds as a daily beater, you don't want to daily a Ferrari F430.
Good test drive, good content well done. The age of the car will be a bit of an issue if you use it as a daily driver but if you only use it for your channel then go for it, as you say the depreciation is going to be smaller on what will be a classic Ferrari.
Archie, PLEASE buy a Mercedes Benz SLS AMG (non Black Edition). It is really an amazing car that can actually be daily driven. It also sounds amazing... and if you can afford it, the model with the gullwing doors would be awesome even tho the convertible is great too.
Hmmmm only 25% depreciation on a 12 year old car that's not a true classic ? ...Mayfair prices ..you can find a better car/ price combo Archie good luck :)
You should have tested this car last, not first, its an amazing car. Also, you should have had the opportunity to drive it outside London to really feel it on country roads (too bad you didn't).
Noo archie!! Buy a 2017 GTR only 70k and u can save 20k! Plus this ferrari is an 2005 car! As u said its outdated! Gtr is so beautiful, 4 seats, big trunk, comfortable seats, daily driver, fast as hell, NOT OUTDATED!😜 i would love to see a 2017 GTR
Bad option for a daily car, its not in the daily sport cars era, it has a very high fuel consumption that increase a lot driving in the city... however I think its one of the most beautiful engine noises in the world.
I wouldn't buy tbh. If you have to use it daily, you're going to put a lot of miles on it and that would affect depreciation. I would go for something newer but still used so that depreciation won't hit too hard.
Archie the F430 is not for you ,the maintenance is absurd it takes it out of your price range so basically people that buy this year Ferrari do it to fill up a spot in a car collection or it was there dream car or they couldn't afford a new one and will sell it within 6 months .... in my eyes a perfect car for a young kid like you that wants to stay in the supercar circle really narrows it down to a GTR or Z06 the GTR is perfect for a person that wants to modify the hell out of and really personalize it and you can stay with the 100 grand mark if you buy used same with the vette but I see the vette for an older buyer
Archie you could buy my Ferrari 430 and also take part in the Mille Miglia Tribute in it - it's way way better spec than this and full carbon interior and later year
Archie great videos and ur doing great 👍 but when doing b roll it needs some work so I recommend asking for help like from Sam or seb or like watching some video tutorials online will help out a lot but the content is great just a little constructive criticism
Get a low mile R8 V10+. Depreciation bump has already happened and you will get more bang for your buck then any other car. Reliability won't even be an issue. Ferrari are notoriously questionable on reliability especially "older" models. And a R8 would be a great daily.
Paddles not moving with the wheel is the weirdest thing with this car. Want a reliable daily driver, get a 911. 400+ hp and the interior is nicer and servicing is so much cheaper. I love the idea of the Cavallino but it's stupid money to own one.
List of potential cars
2009 Lamborghini Gallardo
2007 Ferrari f430
2013 Audi R8
1996 Hyundai Accent
Alex Metaxa you forgot the Prius
Alex Metaxa you forgot the Prius
Alex Metaxa top notch banter👌🏼
Alex Metaxa Hyundai is the best car on your list. Could you imagine a RUclipsr being able to afford one of them 😂
Alex Metaxa y Hyundai
Ferrari crew. Rah rah rah. Especially that colour combo 👀
TGE TV Nah nah nah. Not a good daily. Porsche crew for the win!
TGE TV tge lend him one of your many new motors from Geneva 😂
TGE TV "TGE SPEC" my lambs
TGE TV WHAT YOU SAYIN AGAIN RAHHH😂
TGE spec
Just saw this car was priced at 90k
There is a Cayman GT4 for that price at Romans International, you should look for it !
For the same budget and for daily driving I would look for GT-R or R8 V10
Guillaume Combe I would go for the GT4, no doubt!
GT4 all day for me also
Seeing as it ticks all the boxes Archie mentioned in this video, I would have to agree
GT4 doesn't have a unique drive train, but hell of a chassis/balance, plus it is a manual.
Guillaume Combe did you saw the frunk of the r8? You can't go to a rod trip in that
If you do get it, paint it Blu Hera, and put 360CS wheels on it. That + a valveless exhaust system and you've got yourself quite the machine.
Natural Aspirated Ferrari's are going to be instant legends! But that semi-gearbox will give u a hardtime... daily...
I own the 430 and it has been reliable. I did not get red. I found a great Silverstone Gray color. It’s the best bang for the buck if you want a reasonably affordable Ferrari.
These are great cars. Don't own one, but have driven several. and at least 3 friends have one. hope you bought it.
Archie, if you want savage performance and reliability then you have to go for one of these:
- LCI R8 V10 with S-Tronic gearbox
-997 Turbo S
2:55 "it's cool to see the engine". It is ESSENTIAL to see the engine so that you notice when it catches fire...
Try used 2016 R8 V10 Plus. It's in your budget. The only problem is the lack of space for luggage in road trips.
Concentrate on getting your racing career back on track 1st. Then enjoy the rewards later.
Buy porsche turbo it's amazing daily plus it pull hard and I never see a youtuber drive one that Will make you spécial plzz at least give it a try and if you can get turbo S that gona be perfect ^^
Medamine Majid but ferraribis a ferrari. He would be insane not to choose the ferrari
jaja well ferrari it's good but not as daily car and he said he Will daily this so the 911 turbo it's the best sport car for that ^^
And you know, that ferrari isn't good daily? It is really funny. You probably never even sat in Ferrari, but you know it is not good daily. There are many examples that it can be driven daily. For example it is proved by DailyDrivenExotics. So don't say something until you try.
xXxFuRxXx lol you don't even know me hahah im not gona tell you what I own or that I have been in a ferrari but im gona tell you this im from UAE soo guess by your self cheers mate ^^
Medamine Majid you wont tell me because it is so obvious. You just copy what everyone like you says.
I know you are thinking about a corvette but maybe a Dodge Viper would be a good thing to consider despite sharing the same complexities as the corvette

F430 Spider, Manual, Nero Daytona, Crema interior, Daytona style seats
430s are going to skyrocket in value!
Seeing a 15 plate r8 v10 spider for 86k with 8 k on and a 14plate 991 turbo on 14k miles for 93k both pretty new and German so reliable super fast cars.you know it makes sense Archie 👊🏻
HUGE LOVE for the last manual ferrari
Ferrari does look and sound very nice but reliability could be an issue,how about Porshe GT4 or 911 turbo?
1:24 New option now available in all Ferrari car " Smoke Detector " xD
If ur looking for a daily why not a Porsche panamera 4S or something within that spectrum? Fast and practical
When you speak of a certain price bracket you must also take into account the running cost of different cars.

The Ferrari 430 is amazing, especially manual!!
you can get larger paddles that cover more of your steering wheel turning radius
This is the one! Supercar, elegance with stellar lines.
I just bought an 08 F430 Spider in Rosso Corsa. It’s unbelievably nice and fun to drive. Daily drive? No way in hell. You want to keep the excitement, drive it on the weekend with less traffic. You don’t want to be on and off that clutch in crappy traffic. That’s no fun.
Kept on thinking your windscreen is cracked then I realised I've broken my iPad :(
It's very you but no daily.
What ever you buy, no chav camo wraps 👍🏽
Nice! I found one I’m thinking about buying. I think your vid made my mind up!!
Regarding reliability you could talk to Superspeeders' Rob Ferretti. He has two 430 and loaded a video recently regarding maintenance costs.
i think u should get the r8 v10 plus, v12 vantage s, lotus evora 400r, or any Porsche
Hey Archie, I am really curious how this compares to the V12 550 Maranello you have in the family! Any thoughts? Thanks

My favorite ferrari, love the style.
you have to go for a gallardo becouse its not that old tons of power good sounding v10 and you can get it for a good price now
430 is one of the best looking modern Ferrari's ... but as a daily driver ... too risky
i noticed that the paddle shift is on the steering column not on the steering wheel like your amg a45 .. ive got gla45 ...whats better...i can see why you liked the 45 ..i love mine awsome....if you like 2 doors amg gts
2013-2015 Audi R8 V10 with the S-Tronic is the perfect daily supercar!!!!
Test drove an f430 spider before and it was a special experience, think an r8 v10 for far less money would be a better car overall
Ferrari is a rich mans toy but an r8 v10 could be afforded by majority of people who are good at saving......people spend r8 money on mid spec 5 series bmw's

wow. best combo. certainly worth considering!
a cayman gt4 would be a good shout would be a better daily driver and is almost new but depricciation wouldnt be too bad
What's the difference between a 430 F1 and an F430? There isn't is there? On autotrader there is a choice of "Ferrari 430" or "Ferrari F430"
YESSSS ARCHIE THIS HAS TO BE YOUR NEXT CAR IT SOUNDS VERY GOOD IT LOOKS AMAZING AND ITS AN FERRARI ❤
Archie, PLEASE buy a Mercedes Benz SLS AMG (non Black Edition). It is really an amazing car that can actually be daily driven. It also sounds amazing... and if you can afford it, the model with the gullwing doors would be awesome even tho the convertible is great too.
Lovely cars, was on my shortlist when I last went shopping.
You don't need to look anymore! That spec 👌🏽
i would recomend a F-type SVR or a 911 turbo
Get this and then get the Kriessieg exhaust! I guarantee you will be blown away by the F1 SOUND
nice video and a lovely car.. greets from holland!
Hmmmm only 25% depreciation on a 12 year old car that's not a true classic ? ...Mayfair prices ..you can find a better car/ price combo Archie good luck :)
How about a Aston Martin V12 Vantage??
02hol thats the one
You should have tested this car last, not first, its an amazing car. Also, you should have had the opportunity to drive it outside London to really feel it on country roads (too bad you didn't).
A 612 is good value and a good daily plus pretty unique
MC05 WJZ at the start we see the number plate in full screen so why do you try and hide it for the rest of the video? bit odd.
How come you don't use your Twitter, Archie?
You say daily driver with lots of miles; does that means you will trade the A45?
Noo archie!! Buy a 2017 GTR only 70k and u can save 20k! Plus this ferrari is an 2005 car! As u said its outdated! Gtr is so beautiful, 4 seats, big trunk, comfortable seats, daily driver, fast as hell, NOT OUTDATED!😜 i would love to see a 2017 GTR
Is this a replacement for the A-Class or the Ferrari he has??
Enjoyed this Archie
Very cool spec and nice car indeed. Make it yours!
Bad option for a daily car, its not in the daily sport cars era, it has a very high fuel consumption that increase a lot driving in the city... however I think its one of the most beautiful engine noises in the world.
Mate 430's aren't going down - for the last few years they've been going up!
amg gts,audi r8 or 911 turbo s.....if you want reliability and fun
that car it's crazy!!!!
Hola what about a older GT3 when it depreciates
Great video, great car, and no click bate! :)
It's a Ferrari so are you sure that's the correct mileage on it? 😂😂
I found an SLS Black Series currently for sale at 183k.
Finally a decent car, true sport cars come from Italy.
I wish my dad was rich enough to call me Archibald
You should get this car, add a new exhaust, detail it, wrap it, drive it to continental Europe for a road trip, then flip it for a new one.
awesome car Archie. I would go with a slightly newer one though
YES BUY IT
What do you think about a porsche gt3 ?
I wouldn't buy tbh. If you have to use it daily, you're going to put a lot of miles on it and that would affect depreciation. I would go for something newer but still used so that depreciation won't hit too hard.

I love that car very much but there is one problem to much money and it's outdated but I do think a gtr is still available as an option
Kevin Wade Crasno
Sounds pretty cool!
Did you test the Alfa Romeo Giulia QV?
Hard choice - nice car
Look at the 599 for a ferarri at that price, so much car for the money
I thought they were discontinued in favour of the Italia 458
That gap between the wheels and arches tho..
His vids are the best any ways get the Ferrari
Dude I really like watching your videos, fab content, but you need to work on the editing, constant popping between cuts is just annoying.
Maserati Granturismo MC Stradale! The sound of that car, my lord...
Very nice spec!
Get a low mile R8 V10+. Depreciation bump has already happened and you will get more bang for your buck then any other car. Reliability won't even be an issue. Ferrari are notoriously questionable on reliability especially "older" models. And a R8 would be a great daily.
Consider a M5....or M6?? That Ferrari is quite cool, mate!
Paddles not moving with the wheel is the weirdest thing with this car. Want a reliable daily driver, get a 911. 400+ hp and the interior is nicer and servicing is so much cheaper. I love the idea of the Cavallino but it's stupid money to own one.
please go for this
hang on...how many cars you got? the A45 and the Fezza (can't remember which one, someone remind me)...am I missing anything?
Vandan Popat Ferrari is a 550 but not Archie's it's a family owned car
Aha. So his only car is the A45? What else is in the Hamilton garage? Sorry I am a little new to this channel
Just get R8 V10 its under 100k basically new
Won´t it fell alot in price when you but miles on it? And as an old car, old media system
