Making its world debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, the Ferrari FF (an acronym of Ferrari Four, signifying its seat and driven-wheel count) was a shooting brake-style, four-seater offering buyers a first: a full-size Grand Tourer with a 651bhp V12 engine and four-wheel drive.

The car was designed by Pininfarina under the direction of Ferrari's own chief designer, Flavio Manzoni. Maranello had previously dabbled with four driven wheels in the 1987 408 Integrale concept, but the V12-engined FF is the first Ferrari to make series production with such a system.

This all-wheel-drive system, patented 4RM, is said to weigh 50 per cent less than a conventional setup, helping maintain close-to-ideal weight distribution (47/53 front/rear). It works in tandem with the car's numerous electronic dynamic control systems, adjusting torque distribution between the four wheels depending on conditions and terrain. The FF also boasts a magnetorheological damping system and carbon-ceramic Brembo brakes.

Powering all four wheels for the first time is a naturally-aspirated, 6.3-litre, V12 direct-injection engine (a descendant of the V12 that featured in the Enzo) with 651bhp (at a howling 8000rpm) and 504lb ft of torque. These figures are enough to hustle the 1790kg FF (dry weight) from 0-62mph in a claimed 3.7 seconds, whilst the top speed is a distinctly supercar-esque 208mph.

The car presented here is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive 2012 Ferrari FF, in a superb colour combination with a well-considered specification. Indicating just 37,800 miles at the time of cataloguing and supported by a full and documented Ferrari service history most recently added to with a full inspection and annual service in December 2019.

The specification includes Sat Nav with Bluetooth phone prep, USB, AUX, rear entertainment, electric memory quilted red leather sports seats, front and rear parking camera with sensors, Scuderia Ferrari wing shields, privacy glass, auto lights and wipers, air conditioning, climate control and electric folding mirrors.

On offer at an appealing and sensible guide, this huge spec, practical Ferrari would make a superb high-performance daily driver.
