F355 values are only held back by the extra costs of maintenance because of the engine out services

[@phila3884]

The F355 was always my choice over the F360. Maybe on paper the inferior car, but looks better, sounds better.

[@jameskalas16]

Fun fact for you.... I refurbished the wheels on the yellow 575 around 10 years a go when I worked at BMW. I wonder if the leather tool kit and original bill of sale are still in the car. It was amazing opening that up to find Eric Claptons signature.... then Chris Evans’ too!!

[@jan-hendrikbussmann4644]

I love these videos. So many cars, so many facts and details to learn in such a short time. That 25 minutes went over like nothing. Also, great job on the camera work on such a walkaround. It looks so professional, all camera movements are well thought out and smooth. It's a joy to watch!

Chris Evans didn’t get round to painting that one white then before knackering up Top Gear 😆

[@jan-hendrikbussmann4644]

I was wondering about that a bit. Is this Chris Evans such a celebrity in the UK? I was just thinking when the name came up, ah, the guy that made Top Gear so annoying. Don't want his car, gonna keep my old shitbox.

[@Dwelijan]

Yeah, he actually starts with my favourite car of the auction. Grigio Alloy is such a stunning colour on the 360. And this Crema interior! Beautiful

[@mallemand1]

Without a doubt my favorite videos on KZbin. Harry and car auctions, match made in heaven

[@jeffharper6259]

Not comparing Harry to Jay Leno as I respect them both, but Harry seems reluctant to speak about how a properly maintained, high-mileage supercar is preferable to a museum piece or trailer queen with low miles or kilometers. Mr. Leno on the other hand is very open about the need to drive (and properly maintain) these automotive pieces of art and he does so at every opportunity. Great video as always Mr. Metcalf.

[@gregmorgan8350]

Interesting video would be Harry and Jay having a beer together and talking cars

[@howarddavies136]

The low mileage on these cars is criminal. They should be seen and heard and enjoyed, not hidden away.

[@readmycomment3157]

They are often one of 5 or 10 cars owned, its not that they aren't used, but there's only so much time lol

Those first 8 or 9 cars with amazing specifications and they have barely been driven, makes me wonder why you’d bother to buy a high performance car if you aren’t going to bother driving it.

[@rscholey85]

Many see cars as art, just because they don’t drive them doesn’t mean they don’t like them, just like saying why drive a 200mph car on the road when you can’t use it’s performance, why watch a vid on cars that your never going to drive ... you could go on and on 😂

[@mick2d2]

[@InspirationSessions]

Too many people buy cars as investments is why

[@llamamanism]

The logic of servicing a car regularly for 20 years that’s not driven is just nuts to me. Replacing unworn tyres, clean filters being changed, tuning an engine that has not changed from a year ago, I don’t understand it

[@richardmortimer8147]

That 206 SP recreation is absolutely lovely. That is my pick. So unusual, and a bargain compared to the other Dinos! (By the way: de Havilland are doing a replica of the 206 SP. Don't know what engine they put in it. That is a fibreglass body. Since the turn-key Dino 246 replica is £35k, I reckon it will be between £45k and £50k. If you want an aluminium replica, there is an Australian comply called Tansley that do one)!

[@JasonMilner]

Ooh - that 612 Scaglietti is a bargain! They never photographed well, but in the metal I always thought they looked fantastic. So classy, & for less than the price of a Cayman.

[@MultiTopgearfan]

The tan interior in that 348 is the most delicious thing I’ve seen today.

[@williamc9578]

Dinos and that Daytona, loveliness.

[@SilentRacer911]

The Testarossa with the seatbelt, I believe in 88/89, it started where the manufacturer had a choice, either airbag, or that seatbelt. Then in 93/94, you HAD TO have an airbag. And yes, the wheels came chrome from factory if you spec’d them like that

[@stirlingbridgen7793]

Isn't it sad that these fantastic Ferraris were built to be driven, but spend their lives in a garage doing no miles whats so ever???

Harry, I would really like for you to interview the lovely chap who converts robotized manuals, I believe it will be the future for many of the SMG/F1/Sportshift equipped cars. Manuals are pretty rare, and if you find the right spec but it is equipped with an automated manual transmission it would be nice to know if you can correct that "issue".

[@canucklehead0]

Be still, my beating heart but, oh my Lord that Bronze coloured Dino!!! What an absolutely stunning piece of machinery! I remember seeing one in Vancouver as a little kid and have been enthralled by the 246's as well as the DeTomaso Pantera's from the same period. I was a curious 7 year old in 1973-4 and have always been in love with cars, my Dad had an early 60's Triumph TR-3a and I remember going to A & W car nights with him in Edmonton with that car. I know I simply couldn't afford this Dino and have it shipped to Alberta, but if I ever win a large enough Lottery it will find a special place in my custom built garage and shop! lol

I love it ever since, I think it's a better Design than the 430, the proportions look so much better and the wheels are the right size, while the 430 Wheels always look to small, obviously cause the car got bigger.

Getting some 1990's Japanese sportscar vibes from the 575 front half, mainly GTO/GT3000. 206 SP is a great example of matching yellow with red successfully. Incredible Daytona curves. 512BB is the way you do two-tone in my book. Like a trip to an arts and design museum this was, thank you.

I worked with a guy (1988 - 1990) who had a 512 BB. He had a few other interesting cars as well. He'd sometimes drive his BB to work. Beautiful thing. He said that it was a bit primitive e.g. if you had the driver's quarter-light window open and you turned the steering wheel, you'd skin your knuckles. But still a lovely car. The CEO of one of our client companies at the time often drove his Testarossa to work. I lusted after that. The CEO spent some time in jail a year or so later. Interesting times.
