  • The Ferrari 365 GT/4 2+2 shares the same size V12 engine with the Ferrari Daytona and was more the expensive Ferrari when both were on sale new back in the early Seventies. Only 525 2+2 were produced, compared to 1,284 Daytonas.
    It's closest rival back then was the Lamborghini Espada and in this video I test them back to back and try to see why this 365 GT/4 2+2 is one of the cheapest classic Ferraris available today. Thanks to The Hairpin Company for the loan of this car: www.thehairpincompany.co.uk/f...

      I've always appreciated it and never understood the hate it gets. It was a bit of a departure for Leonardo Fioravanti design wise but still elegant and understated. It was also the last car Enzo drove. The Leonardo Fioravanti era of Ferrari is my favorite era as that is what I grew up with. I don't even hate the Mondial as you're supposed to as a Farrari fan. Granted, it's my least favorite of his designs but he hit it out of the park with every other car he designed.

      @@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.

      Barely. The plate is only given a reasonably natural looking position on the Ferrari, and then only at the rear.

    Great video, but to me the Espada will always be head and shoulders above the 400, quite simply because you couldn’t mistake it for anything else. Whilst Pininfarina may have had the modern edge, it’s a really handsome car, but the Espada is way more out there and the epitome of an Italian GT of it’s time. Bertone got it bang on!

    I've always loved this underrated Ferrari, its styling is superb and is such good value as you say. I've had direct experience of this car way back in the late 70s when my elder brother had one (he was in advertising). It was in a lovely light metallic blue with blue leather interior. 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... To a young driver who owned a beaten up Mini, it was quite an experience.

      No, the Espada isn't more beautiful - in fact I'm not sure that it's beautiful at all. The 365 is poised and elegant - Melania Trump in automotive form - whereas the Espada is a kooky Kamala Harris. You're right about value for money though; if you can't run to a Daytona / 275GTB / 330LMB etc, then the 365 ticks all the classic '60s boxes - front-engined V12, 4-cams, 6 Webers, knock-off alloys with triple-eared spinners etc. Just fit a wood-rimmed wheel - (of the right sort, obviously - there is a special place in hell for clowns who despoil nice cars with "Moto Shita" steering-wheels...) - and you have a beautiful, if rather thirsty, means of getting to Goodwood. (This much I'm happy to share - Melania's number I keep to myself....)

    Hello all, especially Harry,
    Thanks for another lovely video in every way,
    As an owner of a Paolo Martin designed vehicle (transverse inline multi, two wheels) i just had to mention that it was him who gave this different, modern twist to these pininfarina designs.
    Next to the espada everything looks "normal" although the ferrari is not.
    But, i just love both designs in their own way.
    The espada is slightly tuned to miura-spec. For the money, that stayes in the Ferrari's new owners pockets i would say one should be able to tweak engine and transmission to the amount of joy as required. 😃
    Best regards from the Netherlands, nearby the german border,

    • @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).

    Of the 2 cars I prefer the looks of the Ferrari - just so clean, crisp and neat. As to whether it's a better car than the Lambo, I cannot say as I've driven neither of them. As for the Daytona, I really like how this 365 GT/4 sits somewhat below the radar of its more expensive brother. A car that would raise a smile for those in the know, but draw no attention from those who don't. Subtle, elegant and refined - I like it.
