What in Gods name is; N687 UPC? Not seen one before, don't really want to see one again quite frankly. Not too keen on the red tail-pipe inners on the blue Dino either. Otherwise, some nice queens there.

That Ian is a 512M, super rare, only 36 in rhd, not the prettiest Ferrari ever your right. A lot of the classics have the red tail pipe inners. Yep they are queens but i could not care as they are all pretty stunning.

Been thinking for sometime now about painting my larini inner pipes red to match the callipers, even after 2 years and 17K miles they are still as shiny as when new, i think they will look cool(did i say that ) and personalised,tho garage queens my cars are definately not



regards loz

The red pipes are something Ansa did with their classic exhausts. The Steve McQueen Lusso has them also and was the reason I did the same to my Larini's. They're a pig to keep clean, but look rather smart I think, but maybe that's just me.

Good news

The Ferrari Club UK have asked if they would like to include my photo's in their seasonal magazine. Obviously i said yes. Very happy with that, pics will be in the Winter issue.

Hi Andy, the Larini's come unpainted and they don't offer it as an option. I got Matt (D2 Detail) at Shiltech to do it for me matching to the Ansa red oxide colour. They need some titivation now as the exhaust heat has melted the protective lacquer (the Larini's run REALLY hot), but this is an easy fix. I do think it suites the fluted pipes of the Larini's, but I wouldn't do it to the stock pipes because they're not fluted on the 4200, and are collared on the GS. Horses for courses I guess..

Here's the Ansa's on Steve's glorious Lusso...

No less that you deserve and have put in the effort to achieve Adam. Keep up the good work; who knows where it might lead...........
