- Ferrari Dino review and drive. As classics go, surely there exists no prettier car. Enjoy our extended drive of this timeless classic around the Blue Mountains. Also a bonus lesson from Mastro Mark on heel-and-toe, just for good measure. Please SUBSCRIBE to our channel so you can see our weekly reviews as they appear. Thanks for watching.
Really enjoyed hearing Mark's experience and guidance on how to drive this classic correctly. From start up, shifting and cool down. Priceless.
Thanks for the comment and I’m happy you found my thoughts of interest and value. Yes I really do think the Dino is the most pleasurable car I’ve driven.
Great stuff fellas and greetings from Pommeland - only the Aussies could manage to combine an informative car film with Alfred Hitchcock Murderer gloves and some lovely Australian modesty. Got rid of my 69 911T to buy a 246gt. Can't wait to get it back on the road next year. Plus no music - just a V6 !
Thanks Johnny. We know you'll love your Dino. Indeed, don't bother spending money on a nice stereo. The V6 wins that argument every time. We'll take that as a vote *for* the gloves.
Thanks Johnny, I hope your 246GT is on the road soon.
Love the colours changes at a click of a finger Stu 👍🏽
Great job guys ! Loved every miunte and 'Craig' well done for loaning the vehicle! As to the gloves Marks scoreboard speaks for itself! He can do what he wants!!!!! Well done
Absolutely
RSRSR 911 . Thanks, really enjoyed driving the Dino
I have a 246 Dino with original skinny steering wheel, you can't steer it without gloves for grip. Your car appears to have the thicker after market wheel.
bob p Thanks. The wheel is actually the correct diameter and thickness. It took a lot of research and time to find the correct one as when the car was purchased it did have a non original wheel, due to the previous owners girth. It certainly does look somewhat thicker on the video as you’ve suggested, I think this is more to do with the camera than anything else. The camera also makes me look thicker in places ! And I agree the gloves do help. I trust you’re enjoying your Dino.
Those gloves are like what Tony Curtis as Danny Wilde wore in The Pursuaders TV series
Hadn’t thought of that, thanks
All these Dino 246 driving videos on UA-cam and I still haven't seen anyone demonstrate the correct use of the cigarette lighter!
Otherwise, great video and you've captured the driving experience really well. It's definitely a car that you need to get the feel of and work with rather than trying to muscle it around, but it's remarkably effective and nicely tactile once you get the technique right.
Thanks Helmut
Amazing sound for a V6 motor. I see this Dino driving through Wahroonga village fairly often.
Hey, NSW, I love the word InCarNation 😂🎉 kudos, nice video 👍🏼
Hey, thanks!
Thanks for sharing.
The best Ferrari ever
Another great review - and makes me think I need to sharpen up my gear changes too!
Gavin, thanks. It really is fun to shift gears in this car.
Thus may sound a bit heretical, but our workshop Toyota Landcruiser HZJ75 (diesel, of course) has one of the best gear boxes of any vehicle I've driven. It's done over 300k km, the gear lever has next to no slop & gear changes when cold are as smooth as silk & fast, no graunching or clashing of gears. I can even make smooth clutchless gear changes, once on the move. The newer V8 ones are like a box of rocks in comparison.
Sounds great!
johnny martin thanks mate
If I was ever to buy a Ferrari just to have a Garage Queen, I still think the Dino is #1 on my list.
(Note: I would love to drive one, but I would never intend it to be my Daily Driver.)
Yes I think the Dino is #1 on my list too.
Great video - very well presented and informative!!
Glad you liked it!
Oyster Consulting Global. Thank you

Some fun fact firsts:
The Dino was Ferrari's first mid-engined production car, although Ferrari had been making mid-engined race cars since circa 1960.
The Dino was Ferrari's first "high volume" production car, with total numbers of 3,569 units.
The Dino first appeared in 1967 as the 206GT, with a 2 litre all aluminium V6 producing 135kW (allegedly by Ferrari's standards, but which was probably 120kW as it was the exact same engine that went into Fiat's Dino coupes & spyders) & an all aluminium body. Fiat, which by this stage had a controlling interest in Ferrari, made the engines. 152 Dino 206's were made.
In 1969, the Dino 246GT appeared with a steel body, slightly longer wheelbase & a new 143kW 2416cc V6 with the block cast for the first time for Ferrari in cast iron. This engine again was made by Fiat & also went into their updated Dino coupes & spiders, albeit detuned slightly. This engine also found it's way, in enlarged form into Fiat's 130 coupes & sedans & Lancia's world rally championship winning Stratos (as a 2.4 litre).
The Dino was the first road-going Ferrari to have rack & pinion steering.
Enzo Ferrari didn't want his name to appear on the Dino as he felt that a Ferrari shouldn't have less than 12 cylinders. That was to change when later versions of the 246GT Dino's successor, the 308 GT4 Dino sporting Ferrari's first V8 appeared after earlier versions sold in high numbers.
Lots of great info there, thanks
Enzo Ferrari said a Ferrari is not a Ferrari unless it has 12 Cylinder’s. This car just like the 308 are a total joke. Most Ferraris are built to sell totally on the once earned name, and the only genuine cars are a few in the eighties, seventies and sixties.
Your audio seriously needs improvement
Yes it was poor. Improved later when I got Rode mics.
