I have a Lotus, and I like lots of the cars mentioned above and some of the newer supercars but when you get right down to it.....there is only one 'prancing horse'....styling, tradition,performance.....everlasting appeal. Ferrari just know how to design a classic.

I daily a 145 qv and it's totally not up to scratch with anything modern handling wise but it goes well and sounds better than any modern n/a 2.0 plus it looks cooler. If I had lottery money there's no reason you wouldn't daily an integrale. Just drive something else while it's on the ramps every few months.

I agree with you. If you own a car you have to drive it. If not then let someone else have it who will!

Just wish car tax and insurance wasn't a killer to cool cars in Ireland. So many cars that would be great to own as a fun toy at reasonable money. But the tax makes it next to impossible. Rx8's for example. Taxed as a 2.6liter and insurance next to impossible to get. But you can buy a good one for next to nothing now. Mazda rx7's are an appreciating classic now. And any that are in Ireland are they only ones you'll ever see. I was buying one in the UK a while back and when I did a vrt calculation they declared it a 60k car! Making the vrt about 9 grand!!!
