For over 50 years, Maranello Concessionaires and Ferrari have grown together in the UK. Today trading as Maranello Classic Parts, we are the only official Ferrari classic parts distributor in the world and have the most Ferrari parts in one place.
Our link with Ferrari can be traced back to the days when Britain's first Formula One World Champion, Mike Hawthorn, struck a deal with Enzo Ferrari to sell road cars in the UK. After Hawthorn's tragic death, Colonel Ronnie Hoare stepped in and from 1960 the relationship with Ferrari was born. Maranello became Ferrari's UK distributor through his, at the time, Bournemouth-based Maranello Concessionaires.
Seven years later he moved the operation to a former Vauxhall dealership and Shell filling station; the famous art deco Tower Garage on the outskirts of Egham. Designed by Rix and Rix and built in the Jubilee Year of 1935, the site soon became a Ferrari landmark. The colonel sold to TKM in 1987 and Inchcape took the reins in 1991. By then this fast-expanding business was split into three – sales, service and parts – all based around Egham and neighbouring Thorpe.
After Sytner Group took over from Inchcape, a true enthusiast company – now headed by Roger Penske – was once again at the helm of Maranello Concessionaires. From Hawthorn and Hoare to the present day, the standards, principles and visions of Maranello Concessionaires remain undimmed and unchanged.
Maranello Concessionaires now trade as Maranello Classic Parts and operate from a world-class 100,000 sq.ft. purpose built parts centre in Egham, Surrey, UK.
Today, our vast inventory includes in excess of 40,000 lines and is worth a retail price of over £46 million. Managing the inventory database of 285,000+ parts is no mean feat, meaning that we’ve employed the use of a state-of-the-art IT system that holds detailed information of each and every part.

In fact, our direct relationship with Ferrari allows us to guarantee the same quality assurance and accountability as the brand proper.
