Years back I restored an 860 GT, and this book was a tremendous resource.  It contains both a nicely developed history of the marque as well as must-have information for restorations and tuning.  An absolute must for any bevel-heads out there.  Not limited to bevel-driven models, the book also covers belt-driven and II twins.  Small tear in upper left as seen in pic.  Pages have mellowed slightly with age but are otherwise excellent as is the hard cover.  Non-smoker.

Ferrari plans to sell fewer cars in 2013

Wed, 08 May 2013

Ferrari boss Luca di Montezemolo has announced an unusual plan for the Prancing Horse: to sell fewer cars in 2013 than the 7000 it delivered in 2012. Speaking in Maranello, di Montezemolo stated that 'this is a far-sighted decision to strengthen our brand equity, from what I learned from Enzo Ferrari… We must resist people who say the competition will benefit from us making fewer cars… When others penetrate our markets, we are happy to meet this challenge.' Is Ferrari mad to chase fewer sales? It is not the first time that Ferrari has decided to limit supply: 'In 2003 we did the same,' explains Montezemolo.

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Hyundai is at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show with the Grand Santa Fe debut, the refreshed ix35 and the upgraded i20 WRC. The Geneva Motor Show is probably the most important car show on the planet, and car makers like to have big reveals here. But Hyundai are a bit muted this year, with no big launches planned, although they do have two ‘new’ models on show and a bit of rally glitz too.
