That gear stick is epic!

Haha, it needs to be sturdy: it takes a good old shove to change gears sometimes. But that's all part of the charm.

(Touch would you won't need one) But any idea how much a new roof would cost?

Not sure: mine's in A1 condition, so not a consideration. Eurospares is offering an "as new" used black one for 1250 inc. frame. Otherwise just go to a specialist for a bespoke one I guess.

Your post about the roof made me realise that I have never taken a photo of the car with the roof up. So I have just taken it out for a quick spin and took these. I rarely drive it with the roof up, but it's always garaged that way to keep it secure and prevent the fabric and the rear window from creasing.

It obviously doesn't look as good with the roof up, but I think that Pininfarina made a pretty good job with the design, by retaining the "flying buttresses" feature of the coupé and other Ferraris of that era.

I keep thinking about these for the same reason - need to be able to get the kids in. Was thinking 308 GT4 but there looks like there is no rear leg room in that car. Is this any better? I gave secretly always liked them! Not bothered it’s not quick if you can take it to the red line and the noise is there too. Agree Cabriolet form is best

Yes plenty of room for kids in the back (ours are tall 11 and 13 year olds). Obviously head room is no issue in a cabriolet, but may be in the coupe. You can even get adults in the back of the cabrio if you wish. Much “roomier” than my Evora, which is already borderline for the boys, and impossible for adults.
