  • In this episode, we find Iain back down to earth in the workshop, introducing us to the Ferrari 456 GT, a V12 2+2 Grand Tourer currently in the workshop. After a brief history lesson, it's time to get under the hood and look at recovering some of the original power of this mighty naturally-aspirated V12 that has been lost in the 25 years since new. And it would be rude not to then take it out on the road to enjoy what this car has to offer!
    Thank you once again to everyone for the overwhelming reception of these videos and for all the support of likes, subscribes and wonderful comments.

    This Chap is the closest I've ever seen to being a true "Wise Man". His narrative is conversational and deeply informative as it is riveting to listen to. You learn and retain because you're not being talked down to as if you were an imbecile- too many "car guru's", talk down to us, but not this Chap. He is self deprecatingly efficient in his discourse and thoroughly absorbing. I, like others wish he did a daily edition. Thanks again and to Harry Metcalfe for seeding this channel.

      And he is humble too. Many mechanics call themselves technicians, and when they have a workshop with $4,000,000 worth or cars they act like they have royal blood, and come off as sanctimonious pompous blowhards, and oftentimes have little info other than wikipedia stats, plus how great they are, with the emphasis on the latter. This guy reminds me of my last great mechanic who was born in 1910 and died in 1989. Since then I have been through 25 mechanics, one of whom gave back the car with no coolant (hence no overheating shown on coolant gauge, since there was no coolant to gauge), and it burned up the motor in one day. And of course he pretended like he did fill it with coolant and it was just time for that car to die of old age on that day.

    As a kid I had a Bburago model car at my grandparent's home in exactly this blue spec. and couldn't wait to play with it, whenever we visited. One day, I saw it parked on the street in the town next to our village also in this beautiful blue. Remember it, as if it was yesterday. One of the most underrated Ferraris in my POV. I always loved it. Thank you for bringing back these memories. Amazing work. Keep it up. Greetings from Austria. PS: This gated shifter ❤❤❤

Frankly, he grates on me.

      If you have a track or mountain bike the speeds adjustment is similar too. Sometimes some things stretch or get rattled a bit and needs fine adjustments so you don't grind down something and need to buy new parts or even a new bike. Things lasts forever if you care for them.

    Stockholm, Sweden: HM King Carl-Gustaf had one of these 456 in exactly the same colour as the one in this episode. HMK used to drive it himself quite often with the police in one car in front and another ahead of him. Remember him almost running me over in a crossing in the early 00's. HM Queen Silvia in the passenger seat looked quite baffled when I waved at them and smiled.

    The 456 has been on of my favourite 90's Ferrari for years. Looks absolutely gorgeous and at the same time, so underrated. They climbed up in price in recent years (as everything else) but still great value for money for that prancing horse badge. Also, 4 adults can actually fit in it and has a decent sized boot, so it's quite practical if you need more reasons to convince the missus to buy one.

    Another fantastic video from a classy fellow who respects automobiles and their history. Such a welcome change from the endless "do a burnout lolololol" videos on CZcams.
    As someone who's saddled with a heavy dose of mechanical sympathy and respect for any of my vehicles, and any others, this is a joy to watch.
    Seeing the car driven spiritedly, but not abused is a pleasure. Beautiful 456. Thanks as always, Ian!

    "we're not suggesting every body should blast round using full revs... full throttle all the time in their classic cars" no no no Mr Tyrrell I wouldn't think that of you for a minute. Lovely video thank you.

      @@bikesqump I've done all manner of silly things. I was lucky enough to have an RS2 for a while and early on the floor mat had moved up under the throttle pedal. Well I finally noticed and moved it back down flat into the footwell, SHIT ME .... that made a world of difference.

    @HermanJTS456 Před 3 lety +1

    Thanks Iain for giving the 456 some attention. I drive a M for over 12years and it is really superb. Steering, ride comfort and this V12 driveability are the best. OK, brakes are not up to today's standards, but my God ....this design is pure art. 3/4 rear is the best for me and taking it out for a spin makes my day!!!

    Ahhhh, thanks SO VERY MUCH Mr. Tyrell....!! One of my ABSOLUTE FAVES, the 456....probably from the very 'real world' aspect of affordability [to purchase, at least!] but also bcos of that illustrious and gorgeous-sounding V12!! MAGNIFICENT!!
    I DO hope to be in the driver's seat as an owner of one in the not-too-distant future; maybe when I come back to "good ol' Bighty" (I'm an ex-pat living "Down Under" for the last 40 odd years) I'll look you up for a chat and scout around? Thanks again, Sir Iain!

    It’s never going to be a problem I will ever experience, but I reckon I would feel a complete tosser driving about in a mid engined Ferrari.

    You're absolutely right. This design is underappreciated. It's so simple that it makes one wonder why someone didn't come out with it sooner. And they didn't embellish it with ugly details -- they didn't mess about. It's a beautiful, sleeper Ferrari.

    2nd time in a month to watch this video and it's like seeing this absolutely gorgeous car for the first time. Much better in blue than red.
    The finesse of Ian setting the cables, and I have seen him tune carbs by ear so you can stand a coin on end on an engine, so they open the throttle bodies the precise amount, is watching a master at work.
