I thought the old E36 318Ti Compacts would be slipping a bit by now. So I thought six, maybe six-five for a metallic blue 99T with 38,000 miles, no alloys and a few scratches.

  Ferrari is to offer its next-generation of apprentices more training on Maranello’s classic models. School-leavers aged 16 to 19 will be given more in-depth training on classic car technology to help ensure they’re well-equipped to help keep the marque’s rich heritage on the road. Training will be given on ballast resistor ignition systems and magneto ignition systems both single and twin.  Students will also learn about dynamo charging systems, twin points distributor set ups, as well as setting up multiple carburettors and mechnical fuel injection. And, as you’d expect from a course on classic Ferraris, there will be plenty of hands-on learning with straight cut dog mesh gearboxes.
