    When I was your age I had fun in Ferrari’s too. We all had 308GT4’s back then. Meeting up at Castle Combe for a fun track day. Talking to the older guys with their V12’s. We’d go on more Ferrari track days then. And the same crowd went for weekends away. Almost every weekend we were out in our cars. I think some of the same happens a bit now. I met up with some owners when I dropped into Caffeine & Machine a few times last summer. I’m 77 but my Ferrari is still at the heart of my social life. Mine is a 1988 Mondial 3.2 QV coupe. I just renewed the bushes and rebuilt the Koni’s so it’s very lively now. Pity you missed the pleasure a Mondial gives. They are used in Historic Racing, which says a lot!

      The way things are made and the automotive sector in particular, has undergone a series of big changes in the way things are done. The technical steps are relatively similar but the way the flow is arranged, operated and now kept surgically clean has changed beyond all reconfiguration.
      Ferrari started making cars at industry level 2.0 and they are now at 4.0…
      Upgrading to 5.0 is their current challenge.

    Interesting dash situation in the 550. The car is obviously a 550, has a 550 steering wheel, 575 gauge cluster, the three upper gauges on a 550 are missing..no need to have them I guess because they are on the 575 gauges. Anyway, I wonder what the deal is, maybe some sort of test mule when they were changing things over?

    The Ferraris of today only exist because of the Ferraris of yesterday, and one thing this video couldn’t possibly show is how special each of these cars were in their own era, i.e. how they stood above their rivals back in the day.
    Back in the mid 1970s people were still pottering about in 50bhp VW Beetles and the like, the 308 with it’s 240bhp must have felt like the equivalent of an SF90 versus a MK8 Golf does today!
    Doing a bs k to back test of a Bertie v 308 would really show that stark difference….an idea for a future video perhaps…context is everything!

      @seenthroughglass you never mentioned the seating arrangement.
      You simply said Daytona was last front engined v12 gt until the 456gt - and that's not true
