    Its a shame 964 and Carrera 3.2s are so overpriced now as one of those would be perfect for Simon, their drivers cars .

    Your comments only apply to the 365/400/412 engine. Sorry but this was a compromised design from the outset, the result of FIAT cost cutting and marketing's need for a low bonnet line.

    Water pumps for all other V12's are robust and elegant engineering, also easy to service.

    You can thank Magnus Walker for that. 964's in particular are the basis for "backdate" cars like the Singer LWS. There are plenty of imitators here too.

    In years to come, unmolested 964's will become rare and even more valuable.

    I was talking about Simon's 365. NFI about the others.

    Going through some old pics, and found some of my GT4. I'll see if I can scan them.

    Easy to fix, just ban the waxed moustache, Nurburgring stickers and Martini stripes and values will halve.

    I found it amusing in that the images with the supercars, in ascending order of performance came ascending order of vulgarity.

    It seems inconceivable to me the 288 has morphed into the truly hideous La Ferrari. (And the rest of the current offerings). Do they have to look like that?

    It was also hilarious to see the Daytona and 512 BBi (which were considered large by the standards of the time) absolutely dwarfed by the 488.
