    Really? I have never used the app and post almost exclusively via the web browser on my iPhone. I don’t understand the issue?? Works perfectly well??

    It seems to be the way of the world, for this generation - take something that works and replace it with something that sounds good...

    The app sucked.

    Just log in to the website on your phone or tablet. No big deal.

    So much for “maintaining old cars (including Ferraris) is so much easier than newer ones”.

    First few minutes of this is interesting.

    Most of the problems stem from lack of use.

    TR's were a low point of Ferrari build quality plus their parts support is poor - you need a lot of patience to run one. They're still a better proposition than any Lambo.

    I wish he'd stop banging on about the Countach. I want the prices to fall! Everyone should listen to Ian; he thinks they're rubbish!

    Actually what surprised me was that he’s going to Ferrari for parts.
    Everyone knows they’re overpriced rubbish and surely there are far superior aftermarket parts available.

    Exactly. And it's not our fault we both own a Countach each anyway.

    Why can't Pat just stump up the money and buy the white car in Melbourne?

    We're all tired of his ceaseless jibbering about the next crash. He'll still be banging on about it from his walking frame :D

    The crash for these cars will never happen. They’re in an asset class now not hobby class

    I saw a Countach engine ready for assembly at Carl's last week. It had porosity in the block, it was very expensive to get right. Are you sure you want to play with this stuff? It’s next level pain that a Rabbi wallet won’t fix

    Yep, many engines replaced due to that, particularly in the early years.
