Ferrari 488 GTB

The Ferrari 488 GTB trades at a current median of £125,139 in the UK market, having appreciated 9.8% over the past twelve months and now signalling a hold posture as the car consolidates gains in an appreciating trend.

Recent transaction activity remains thin, with only eight sales tracked over the past year from a total sample of nineteen across our broader observation window. This limited volume reflects the illiquid nature of the model at this price tier, meaning buyers and sellers should expect extended search periods and limited negotiating leverage when deals do materialize.

The 488 GTB occupies a stable modern-classic classification with moderate desirability, attracting collectors who value the model's contemporary engineering and V8 performance without the extreme scarcity of earlier Ferraris. Typical transacted examples show an average mileage of 2,980 miles, suggesting the cars are generally kept in reserve rather than driven regularly.

The three-year projection points to £155,523, representing a base case gain of 24.3%, with the five-year outlook reaching £166,935 or 33.4% appreciation. These gains reflect steady collector demand for well-preserved modern performance machinery, though the modest liquidity suggests price discovery remains gradual and uneven across the small transaction sample.
