Ferrari is in a unique position when it comes to the variety of powertrains it can install in its cars, especially when it comes to the number of cylinders, and the position and orientation of the engine and gearbox.
However, depending on your age, you are likely to have your own set of preferences as to where a Ferrari engine is best positioned. Many of us who love cars particularly Ferraris - are usually interested only in the firm's sportscars, or racing cars. But in truth, it was the 'daily drivers' and more useable cars that kept Ferrari in a positive financial position and allowed Enzo Ferrari to pursue his motor-racing dreams.
This specific car resides in Knysna and its owner is a retired corporate leader. However, the conventional meaning of the word 'retired' is not really applicable to him. Apart from managing his car collection (this being his only Ferrari), his daily schedule includes educating his staff on all aspects of cars, their maintenance and restoration. As manager and a member of several clubs and organisations in the area, it gives him a unique in-depth awareness of this car's history.
