Tangled web?

I am thinking about buying a Ferrari 360 Spider (2004) to drive about 3,000 miles per annum. The car has done 12,000 miles from new and in very good condition. Are there any pitfalls with this model that I should be aware of?

Don't buy unless it has recently been checked over by a specialist such as DK Engineering and unless it has recently had its cambelts replaced.
