That doesn't surprise me Gene. The Ferrari is an over rated mechanical nightmare. Unfortunately I worked on a few Ferraris back in the late 80 to early 90, Its defiantly turned me off from ever buying one. The most disappointment was my first drive in a GTB 308, cool looking car in the day but with the performance of a Holden grey motor.

However there are a few Euro's we forget because when we mention Euro cars everyone automatically thinks German, Swedish & Italian. There are a few forgotten vehicles out there. A lot of them I wouldn't buy but you would have to admire them for their advancements back in the day. Unfortunately when they were fitted with Lucas electronics it made them a bit temperamental.
