@@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.

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...

The autos weren't great but manuals were always available. Only 24 RHD manual 412s were ever made - mine is one of them. It appeared in Fast Lane mag when new and they loved it!

Gorgeous Ferrari! Harry we need a glorious Road Trip please, the ones that ONLY you can put up with 🥳🥳👏🏻

[@phils2180]

Wow! Hard to believe the 2+2 was £2k more than the Daytona, one of the nicest looking Ferraris ever IMO. Must've been down purely to build costs, air con, PS, more luxurious interior etc. The difference in value now is staggering!! If you don't include the almost identical, later 400 models the 2+2 is rarer but without being unkind it doesn't really look anything special unlike the instantly recognisable Daytona and of course the Espada, it just looks "different" as opposed to stunning. Of the two featured, the Espada please! Great video👍.

[@Timmayytoo]

I have always been a fan of the 365 - still a handsome shape.

[@stevenrobertson7643]

Great video, Harry. The engines are actually not the same in the 365 GT4 2+2 and the Daytona despite the same internal dimensions and 4 cams etc. Of course, as well as having the dry mump and downdraft bigger Webers, the Daytona has a transaxle whereas the 365 GT4 2+2 has a front mounted gearbox attached to the engine. Wheelbase = 2700mm on the 365 GT4 2+2 and 2400 mm on the Daytona. The 365 GT4 2+2 is more mechanically alike its predecessor, the 365 GTC 4 which is also a 2+2, but less roomy in the back with a 2500 mm wheelbase.

That Ferrari looks amazing. The Espada still looks weird. I reckon Harry made the wrong choice

This is one review for the ages. Wonderful to see these back to back reviews. Wonder if 412 would offer a bit more performance to match the Espada?

[@peterv3642]

As a 412 owner, I reckon it would close the gap. Love mine

[@chrispenn715]

25 years ago these Ferraris and Lamborghini's would turn up at auction for less than £10k - ok so they were often autos and a bit scruffy - still wish I'd bought one.....

[@chrispenn715]

@Uncle Gilbert well I had a Rolls Royce at the time which cost £10k at the time - but was cheaper to maintain..... :-)

[@schiltz371]

having the steering on the wrong side of those Italian cars takes at least 20k off the value

[@RoverWaters]

TRUE

[@neilturner6749]

Nope it adds considerable value. The UK market is now one of the worlds richest and there were never enough RHD examples of this vintage exotica built to satisfy modern demand for classics

With these old vintage Porsches and Ferraris it's all about the looks. Daytona costs so much because it's an icon which that Miami Vice replica made even more famous. You can buy three or even four Porsche 996's for the price of ONE good low mileage 964 or 993 Carrera example. 996 is faster and more advanced but it's all about the looks... compared to air cooled 996 is just the red headed not-so-handsome stepchild. Same with this Ferrari. It's not that good looking. Cheers. Interesting video again.

[@palbrekke9455]

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 :)

[@neilturner6749]

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).

[@giuseppegiacomoni7058]

Harry? Compression ratio's are widely misunderstood? Porsche 911's were running 6.75:1 A lower compression ratio makes for a more reliable engine! A high compression ratio gives better fuel economy and its not about power? Power from having a high compression ratio works with the exhaust system in helping it scavenge the cylinder and in creating sufficient back pressure. Don't make the mistake everyone does in confusing High Compression Ratio with Flame Travel? Pass this onto Ken Tyrell and see what he says?

[@scoobers90]

You can get in the ballpark of the Daytona’s feel and power with the 2+2. But when you get out and look back, you aren’t looking at a Daytona. That’s what makes the Daytona a legend.

[@chesswizard31]

Exactly, the 2+2/400s don't look half as cool.

[@darrenjones3681]

Yes totally agree especially the Daytona Spyder, with the top down, that is even more gorgeous and is around 3 times the value of a Gtb4 today.

[@rosewood1]

I owned a good 400i a very fast car indeed. Up to about 60 mph or 100k the suspension was very firm the car was nice to drive around. However beyond 60 mph the engine howled the suspension smoothed out and it really flew. Great handling. The Espada I found was disappointing and not nice to drive long distance. Looked great but no where the quality of the Ferrari but that could have been the different cars I was comparing. My Ferrari was very good. The only thing I disliked about the Ferrari was the Magneti Marreli CDI ignition setup. You could not buy new modules and they controlled RPM limits. Great review Harry to compare 2 magnificent true classics.

[@paulmartinwoods]

Espada, beautiful, elegant, interior, engine, what a stunning car!!

[@jfv65]

I loved the Marzal concept car from day 1, after that the Espada never really did it for me. However nice it actually is.

[@chrisloukes424]

Nice one Harry. Always loved the drop-dead gorgeous profile of these Ferrari 365 GT4 2+2. Perhaps you could do a revisit with a 400 Auto? I'd love to hear your thoughts...

[@jonnoMoto]

Out of those 2, the espada. I can't help but see an sd1 when looking at the 365. Also prefer the soundtrack

[@benzinapaul7416]

Lambo did pinch the front end styling of the 365/400 for the Urus though....
