I've always appreciated it and never understood the hate it gets. It was a bit of a departure for Leonardo Fioravanti design wise but still elegant and understated. It was also the last car Enzo drove. The Leonardo Fioravanti era of Ferrari is my favorite era as that is what I grew up with. I don't even hate the Mondial as you're supposed to as a Farrari fan. Granted, it's my least favorite of his designs but he hit it out of the park with every other car he designed.

@@adamski101 Silver on black number plates were illegal on cars in the UK form Jan '73, so middle of L reg. The law was mistakenly changed recently so that any car over 40 years old could have them, then it was changed almost back so that only 1979 or earlier can but not 1980 onwards. However having grown up around cars from early 70's on, they still look completely wrong on anything after 73. Yellow and white first appeared in 1967, so 67 to the end of 72 look right with either. If you have any classic car that is near standard looking, then surely it should look like it did when it was new, and to me and most people i know, that includes the number plates since they have to be fitted.

I've always loved this underrated Ferrari, its styling is superb and is such good value as you say. I've had direct experience of this car way back in the late 70s when my elder brother had one (he was in advertising). It was in a lovely light metallic blue with blue leather interior. He turned up at my parents place with it one day where I was still living in my late teens, and threw the keys to me and said take it for a drive. He had a lot of faith in his little brother as he didn't accompany me! I was alone in this stunning car and swanned around the suburb, the whole time with my right foot trembling on the accelerator pedal, due I guess to a whole number of reasons... To a young driver who owned a beaten up Mini, it was quite an experience.

No, the Espada isn't more beautiful - in fact I'm not sure that it's beautiful at all. The 365 is poised and elegant - Melania Trump in automotive form - whereas the Espada is a kooky Kamala Harris. You're right about value for money though; if you can't run to a Daytona / 275GTB / 330LMB etc, then the 365 ticks all the classic '60s boxes - front-engined V12, 4-cams, 6 Webers, knock-off alloys with triple-eared spinners etc. Just fit a wood-rimmed wheel - (of the right sort, obviously - there is a special place in hell for clowns who despoil nice cars with "Moto Shita" steering-wheels...) - and you have a beautiful, if rather thirsty, means of getting to Goodwood. (This much I'm happy to share - Melania's number I keep to myself....)

Very happy to see this Video , My first Dealership job was with Scuderia Veloce in Sydney in the early 1970s and we sold Ferrari Volvo and Porsche , I love the Espada i have 4 diecast models of it, such an fabulous looking machine I had an opportunity in 1981 to buy one BUT the engine had been damaged, hit the sump on something , in hindsight i wish i had bought it BUT , Thanks Harry Love these videos brings back memories when i was 21.

Was the Ferrari actually running properly? Hard to make out on the video but didn't quite seem on song, especially at higher revs.

Thanks Harry. Judging by the relative camera movement, the Ferrari delivers a significantly smoother ride as the trade-off for the heavier weight, plusher seating, and softer performance. Just before Covid came along, I was lucky enough to spend several hours with the Ferrari's designer, Leonardo Fioravanti (who also designed the Daytona and the Dino, and who had regular contact with Enzo Ferrari), and his brief direct from Enzo was to 'Build me a car to take to the opera', and from your comments, he very much met that brief.

My mum had a boyfriend (sugar daddy!) with an Espada. Red with gold Campagnolo Knock-offs. I adored that car and still have a soft spot for Espadas.

Harry. Loved this. Got one for you. Have 1980 930 / love it - but went for a ride in a Ferrari 308gt4 recently. A sorted one. Suspension re done and breaks etc- and engine as it should and I was blow away. Would love for you to do a review on the only Lambo designed Ferrari. It was so balanced. Someone said Lauda set suspension geometry. Anyway keep up great material.

14:07 Wow imagine being able to hold the loud pedal to the floor for 15 seconds in a modern Ferrari. You'd be doing 170mph. A lot to be said for having less power and more time to enjoy accelerating.

Bit disappointed about the lack of performance from the 365, seems like it was not building up revs as fast as I would expect. Wonder if it is this particular example.

I’d say the opposite! Performance was similar to a modern day BMW 320 Diesel. The example in the video sounded particularly energetic and crisp, certainly better than any I’ve even driven, which may be why they’re asking top money for it...

It probably needs tuning, running a bit too rich or lean. Maybe the carbs need a rebuild. Iain Tyrrell would likely know the cause.

@neilturner67493 жыл бұрын
Nope, they really were as sluggish as hell ! Ferrari’s quoted power output was a huge exaggeration. The one in the video sounded like a particularly strong rebuilt example with a lovely crisp engine note that’s virtually impossible to retain with so many carbs and cylinders to keep in tune.

Both are so wunderfull examples of 70s high end GTs. This is, for me, the most elegant and beautiful Ferrari design (also the 400/412). On the other side, the Espada is so spectacular and beautiful... Both have magnificent engines - but the Lambo sounds much healthier. (but I think, Mr. Tyrrell can help, in this case. But another thing: this is a fantastic video! Seeing both cars on this road - what a look. Sometimes it looks like the pictures in the CAR magazine come to live - so perfect. You both did a great job! Thank you so much!

Actually, considering their respective values, I think the real question is, “Both of these, or a Daytona?” They are very different cars, of course. I’ve been fortunate enough to drive all three. The Daytona is more my kind of car, but I would easily choose the Espada over the various iterations of 2+2 365/400 Ferraris.

Thank you for another great video, Harry (and Charlie)! The 365 seemed suprisingly lethargic and didn't pick up revs as quickly as expected. With the hesitation on first acceleration, too, one might suspect the engine hasn't been perfectly tuned? Would have loved to hear your friend Iain Tyrrell's opinion of that particular example - and see/hear if he couldn't make it perform slightly better :)
@neilturner67493 жыл бұрын
You’re not familiar with these then. It wasn’t perfect, but the one in the video seemed particularly strong and crisp-pulling compared to how they usually are. You can perfectly tune them, but within a week it’s all out of synch again. Same issue happens if the weather changes. The engine is a nightmare to maintain and real-world performance is about the same as a 2 litre diesel Mondeo (0-60 in 8.5 secs and top speed 130).
