Well jeez... you can't just leave us hanging. Tell us about it. Likes, dislikes, experiences, anecdotes, pictures... anything. For the love of Dino, throw us a bone!
It's not every day that you run across an owner of one of the greatest, all time, automotive beauties. Tell us, were there warts? Knock knees? Maybe a hammertoe?
I too had a Dino 246GT - first registered May 1974 hence one of the very last.
As I said elsewhere: everything you read about them is true.
Not only is it really beautiful but it's a fabulous drive too. Everything just seemed to gel together to provide an experience which I've never quite felt elsewhere, despite having driven other Ferraris and Lamborghinis.
It wasn't specially fast, particularly by today's standards, but the way it delivered what power it had, the noise, the handling, the practicality was all wonderful. No frills either - just a chassis, an engine, a driving seat and wheel envoloped by a swoopy body - a pure driving machine, despite what BMW might claim!
The only real downside (apart from the price of servicing and spares) was its propensity to rust - big time.
Most have been rebuilt these days so have probably been properly rust-proofed. And if you get a good one, it's the car of a lifetime (unless it's earth-shattering performance you want from your Ferrari, but with only 195 bhp that's not what you'll get..)
Recommended wholeheartedly, but the price of them these days precludes me every having another one sadly.
