Trader Dreamer: Ferrari 512TR

So I've gone a second Sunday without a Trader Dreamer, but to make up for it, here’s one about a true automotive hero. These days if you want a full on lary V12 supercar you must surely go to Lamborghini or Pagani. Yes Ferrari make the fully competitive 599, but it’s engine location gives it the appearance of a GT rather than Supercar. In this day and age it’s harder than ever to make a case for a V12 Supercar that’s so big you need a runway to fully explore its abilities, but if there’s one period of time where these vehicles were at home it was the excess of the 1980s.

Missed Opportunity: Finnish Edition

 Finnish as in Finland the country that is. A country that makes itself known to me through two great industries; Valmet, who have made everything from assault rifles to Saabs, and Nokia, a company that brought mobile phones to the masses. For once I’m not going to write about cars, prepare for a phone blog.
