Great read, thanks! Did you loan them a Ferrari in return though? ![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)

So you prefer the mid-engine, turbo'd car? Hardly a surprise considering your collection.. you may have a type!
My order of preference (with limited/zero time in them) would be: 812 Competizione, F12, 296 GTS, 812.
Side note: how can the 812 be the flagship when another standard car, the 296, has more BHP?
Hope that doesn't t all come across as too negative, I enjoy your reviews.![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)

Mid engine.....definitely. Turbo....not necessarily given I would still put the F50 at the top of the list of all the cars I have ever owned.IanF wrote: ↑Thu Sep 21, 2023 12:02 am So you prefer the mid-engine, turbo'd car? Hardly a surprise considering your collection.. you may have a type!![]()
