Re: Mediocre
In Response To: Mediocre ()

My opinion of Ferrari is tainted by the fact that they no longer let magazines do group tests or figure (as in time) their cars without a full complement of mechanics and technicians. All it says to me is that Ferraris aren't reliable and need to be fettled even for the short time they're being tested by magazines. Road cars don't come with a host of mechanics etc so why should test cars? I really like the 550, 575 and 456 but since then it's been all about technology being in charge and not the driver. Unfortunately for me that taints everything Ferrari does.
