With a starting price in the US of about $400,000 the Ferrari Purosangue isn’t exactly cheap. Yet not all of them are just garage queens, like this example in London which is filthy thanks to it serving as a daily driver. To see the exotic crossover get fully detailed in the included video is rather cathartic.

To say the Purosangue has been controversial would be to make a gross understatement. Long before its reveal, rumors of the first crossover made by Ferrari rippled through the automotive industry like wildfire, dividing the Maranello faithful and eliciting approval and jeers from those with no allegiance to the brand.
Some believe the Purosangue cheapens Ferrari because it’s not in the sporting spirit of the automaker. Others feel it sticks to that spirit enough to be justified, especially with a raucous V12 and active suspension system.
The reality is Ferrari had to eventually make its own crossover as every other premium brand in the world has been offering them. This trend arguably started with the Porsche Cayenne, which saved the company from financial ruin and has been a runaway hit since it debuted.
But it’s taken time for ultra-luxury automakers to jump on the bandwagon. Now, you can get a crossover from Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini, etc. Ferrari had to bow to the tremendous pressure as its faithful customers demanded a crossover.
One might wonder why crossovers have become so popular in the past several years or so? Part of that has to do with about 50 percent of the world’s population. Women especially love premium crossovers because they can take the kids out shopping or to sports games and still enjoy driving something that isn’t a minivan or just a regular old crossover.
Clearly, the owner of this Ferrari Purosangue thoroughly enjoys driving it. Considering the financial might this person has at their command, they could likely drive just about anything they want, so there must be some good reasons why they choose to drive the Prancing Horse’s crossover.
Fully detailed, we have to say this Ferrari looks impressive and watching the process is oddly relaxing.
