For me, anything that came after the F40 , is a tarts handbag of a car produced for footballers with too much money but no sense of style or class.


Ferraris(and similar) were only ever meant for one of two things:


Racing


or


Flashy toys for the fashionable. And like lots of fashion goods, they're not very durable or well made.


This seems to be an Italian thing.

The Italians do passion while the Germans prefer pragmatism. :)

.. and making it as complex as possible. ::)


That's unfair. You mean as complex as they can.

He is rich, he sold a window making company he had but made the money himself fair play to him, he has a famous Mondeo touring car and very special race bike I’ll ask about those next time I see him.  He asked me about refurbishing his turbos and fitting bigger billet wheels in them too🤣 like as if it not fast enough already😱😱

When I worked for Virgin ( Media) in 2000 , my manager used to poll up in a Ferrari.  Only trouble was……….it was yellow.

Not a racer then. Although it could also be because he can make his own decisions. :)
