My god there’s someone out there who’s more of a geek than I am about cars.....brilliant video loved every minute congratulations

Can you guys do a F50 buyers guide next?

I would now be carefully checking that back spoiler if I had the funds to buy it 😉

Great video Tom. I'll never be able to afford one bar a lottery win but so informative. I was lucky to have a factory tour in Maranello in early summer 1988 or 1989 when I was 14/15 (can't remember exactly - it was pre 348 defo) and remember seeing the F40s in the factory alongside 328s, Mondials, TRs and 412s. I still have a postcard from Brenda Vernor confirming my invite, I wrote to her directly having read an interview with her in CAR magazine. She also sent me a brochure signed by Piero Lardi Ferrari. How different it was pre internet!

This is, without any doubt, the best video on a Ferrari F40 in the entire world wide web! Congratulations from Switzerland 🇨🇭

I really do enjoy these talks you do tom. Please keep them coming.

As an aside: those are some *really* squeeky shoes.

i was doing research on F40's recently and this video helped quite a lot.

Slow piano music goes exquisitely with rubber squeak. But now I know enough on matter that I will propably never own.

Am I the only person that winces every time Tom scrapes the folders across the rear with of the car in the beginning?

Really enjoy your content, please keep more coming Tom. So refreshing to see great content time & time again.

Absolutely loved watching this. One of the best videos I have seen in a long time, especially a car with so much history. Kudos!

As a fellow F40 enthusiast with the same obsession with the car, I can't thank you enough for the insights. But my perfect car is not just an F40, its the F40 LM Stradale or F40 GTE Stradale which isn't possible...

Really fascinating Tom,thank you. Look forward to more Tom talks episodes,your presentation style works perfectly in these videos,just like being told information from a good friend.

Hi Tom, Thank you for a such an informative great video. Your knowledge on the F40 is clearly second to none and your passion shows through completely. Its nice to see a dealer offer some "free advice" on such great cars. Love you last comment regarding "Cheque in the post as well!" ;-)

thanks for the info keep the reviews and documentation coming of what makes a great car !

I must say that this video is brilliant. So original in its content and presentation. 1st Class all the way👏👏👏🇦🇺

Tom - This was incredible. Fascinating insight, so grateful for sharing. Guy

Thanks Tom. Glued... I’m fairly local, if I popped by one day would be great to meet you and have a look round....

Another awesome video, I feel educated, absolutely love these videos Tom 👏👏👏

A great video, thank you very much. Your knowledge and enjoyment for these cars really comes through. Please keep posting!

Brilliant video again . Really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise of dealing with the Ferrari F40.

Legit video, worth watching for S.Moss story alone. Wealth of knowledge of course, with touch of snobbery towards US spec cars. While those might be somewhat inferior to Euro models in many aspects, they hold their charm in other areas: lack of ugly fog lights on rear bumper, better integration of air vents etc. Fuel tanks are whole separate topic.

Thank you for sharing your expertise and insight!!

Great incite into what to look for. Thanks for you sharing your vast knowledge.

Every question, every concern I've ever had about an F40 for the last 10 years.. you've answered it! Thank you!

Brilliant video Tom, please keep this channel going it’s fantastic! 🚘

Would love to have one, but the luxury car tax in Australia is a killer. The F40 & McLaren F1 are my two dream cars.

I can remember when Keith from the Prodigy traded in his F40 about 20 years ago. It was up for 150k for a year or two. The salesman had to air out the car as it stunk of marijuana. You could hear him and his buddy in a 993 GT2 from about 2 miles away when they came for servicing. Wonderful days before investors started buying them - you had a chance of seeing or hearing them on the road or track days. Better yet, there was a chance of buying one then.

Hi Tom, Thank you for a such great video

Brilliant and very informative. Now I only need to win the Euro Millions Lottery!

Brilliant content thank you so much for sharing your hard earned knowledge 👍👍👍👍

Thanks for that information,I know what to look out for now,after I win the lotto..

Fantastic video, thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion!

Tom have you ever encountered an F40 with the carbon fiber (hub) steering wheel? I believe this may have been a pre production feature but have never seen one in the flesh as it were only in old factory videos.

Fascinating, and entertaining - thanks for this. With the number of F40s built, I can now see how a picture can be built up as to what makes the 'right' kind of car. With fewer example models such as the 288GTO (my favourite car since it was introduced) it must be more down to individual scrutineering? BTW, Johnathon must've been raging with you leaning on and resting the books on the spoiler...

Tom I loved every second of this video. Really Awesome tips. If possible can you please do a same guide video with a McLaren F1?

Wow. Tom, you may be the most passionate car person I've ever come across. I was lucky enough to get a ride at speed around my favorite track in an F40 decades ago. I loved these cars before that day and loved them much more after that day. This video is by far the best F40 video I have ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to share your passion with us.

Mate please! This is the second video where you’re dragging a binder across the back of the car just like in the blue Ferrari Daytona video. I realize it’s probably barely affecting the finish and could be polished back to perfection but why not just lay the documents out on a desk or somewhere other than the actual £1.5m car 🤦🏻‍♂️

Thanks Tom, Thanks. This was so nice to see!

Great really interesting video, one of a kind knowledge!

I didn’t want that video to end. Absolutely brilliant. I’m the same age as the F40 and I’ve loved it for as long as I can remember. Although I’ve never actually seen one, it will always be a dream of mine. Thank you for this video, Tom. Great work👌🏼

Wow absolutely fascinating Tom, your knowledge is amazing !

I wish i could buy an early Ferrari F40 with weave, wind up windows, non-cat with adjustable suspension. Right hand drive car.

My absolute dream car since a boy. When my numbers come up Tom, you will be my first phone call!

I'm another dreamer but it would be my first purchase if my lottery numbers came up, till then I have to make do with my scale model that's been on display everywhere I've lived since 1988. I do find it sad that these cars are seen as a commodity, an investment like buying shares or something when I'm sure enzo and all the designers that created the f40 thought of it as a machine to be driven and enjoyed and if a 30 year old car has 1500 miles on it it certainly hasn't been enjoyed very often. It seems like a waste to me.

Outstanding! Thank you for sharing your passion.

Best video on KZfaq So interesting and so wicked to really really geek out on Ferrari’s Absolutely loved it keep them coming!!!

Awesome video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Well done Tom. Fascinating video. Very insightful look at an iconic car.

Great video Tom, can’t thank you enough for sharing your fantastic knowledge of these cars. I’m sure your credibility has shot through the roof and will give you many new customers. I look forward to meeting you one day when I’m in the market for a classic Ferrari. Regards Rob

Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it.

A true professional at work. Thank you for sharing.

very clear & enjoyable.

Fantastic video! Tank you for sharing this!

Thomas. Sir. Pardon me, but you must realize that we all wish to know the details about why you were put-off buying the "1,100. KM" F40 that you spoke of. Take your time and put out another 30min + video about the F40 topic to explain it to us. Thank you in advance for the content.

Seriously I could look at the car all day long. This together with the Carrera GT and McLaren F1 are my ultimate cars to have.

Amazing vid - outstanding knowledge - no surprise to me but shows you are a world leader in these vehicles. Guess you might be regretting the squeaky shoes tho ;)

Really enjoyed this, your knowledge and enthusiasm is infectious

Hello Tom,,, fantastic describe i noticed that the vin-code does not match the body nr.. is there a reason for that ?? 340 vs 569 ?

Great content Tom. Classy, sophisticated, and excellent presentation. The cars are spectacular and true works of mechanial art. Keep them coming. Your videos are enthusiast based and well received here in NY. All the best.

Thank you for this video. One day i will own this beautiful car. Its been my dream car since i was a boy. Still aiming to afford it one day.

I was about to pick up a couple of these, I'm glad I found this video.

Thank you Tom for such an amazing video. The F40 has been my halo car ever since I saw little spy shots of prototypes in the car magazines. No internet back in those days. Being an engineer I always obsess over the details. But when I see one up close, the beauty overwhelms me and I can't focus. I can't imagine if the opportunity comes that I can afford one. I would jump on the first one I see for sale! Passion just takes over logic. Will hopefully be reaching out to you when that time comes.

Really not sure how 67 people disliked this incredibly interesting history and knowledge. Keep em coming son!

Super helpful. I’ll pop out and pick one up this weekend.

Thanks Man! Really appreciated sharing competence! Sharing competence is a demosnstration of competence itself and it will be ever be yours.

This guy literally embarrasses the Ferrari main dealers in terms of his reputation selling these kind of Ferrari’s, and I hear this feedback from the main dealers themselves! literally the best in the business...keep it going Tom..

Tom, thanks the video. As a classic car/cheap Ferrari owner, personally it was great to watch your video but at the end of day if I could reach to an F40 at today’s prices I would still buy one from someone like yourself who knows them inside out, it wouldn’t be worth the risk being an investment. Love to visit one day, I’m based in Bournemouth so not too far, you’d make my day!

great video tom,im currently in the market for an F40 and this video has been invaluable

Very interesting info - great job

Beautiful Video

First time listener, that was a great video, really enjoyed it love Delaware information.

Great video! Thank You!!

Lifelong F40 fan, thanks for the extra insight.

Great video Tom, would love to hear your knowledge of the Brunei f40's.

Glad I found this right before buying my F40

Intellectually presented and explained in a naturally friendly way, but with strategic retention of pivotal detail. Can’t give everything away, eh? A few less “you know” words wouldn’t be a bad thing. Mix Tom with Tyrrell’s Classic Workshop and we’ve a winner.

Just subscribed. The saying "You get what you pay for", couldn't be more true if you're dealing with this man. Knowledge can be learnt, but this level of experience, level of detail, and pure passion is very rare. When you're looking to buy one of these incredible cars, the experience has to match if not surpass your expectations. Tom is obviously a man that delivers. Not a big social media guy, but just had to comment on this.

Love these video .very interesting information

Hi Tom were all the Ferrari 288 GTO's the same spec ?

Another great video 👍

Thanks Tom … my dream car since October 1987 (the first time I saw it live on the Car Show in Portugal) I was just 11 years old … still trying to find a way to one day buy one and give you my check 🤞

Many thanks loved it

Very interesting. Thank you.

Excellent vidéo! Is it a damage on the wheel at 09:05 ?

One brilliant video and I am one of those who did not know about the body panel numbers. Thanks.

Awesome video!

That was Fantastic ! I learnt alot ! I bought one in 97 :)

Many thanks Tom, very interesting new information about my favorite Ferrari although I am a Ferrari collector and tifoso for more than 35 years. Keep on going with your great work and you said it right that experience you cannot learn. Take care. 🇮🇹🏎

When I was a teen I bought a 1/18 die cast Bburago Ferrari F40. When you opened the front there was a spare wheel and tire. I've noticed that all the real F40's for sale don't seem to have a spare wheel in the front even though there is plenty of space for one. Does anyone know why? I've been a big fan of the F40 since it came out. Hopefully some day I hope to be able to afford one. Thanks.

Can’t believe you’re putting stuff on the car and leaning on it

Great video,please do one on the 308GTB that you have in stock.Very informative and enjoyable.Thankyou.

Thank you Tom. The F40 is the best car ever made. Incredible machine and timeless design .

Thank you for your kindness, very informative. The F40 is one if the greatest car. But, which one should i buy if i want to drive it at least 3000km a year in your opinion?

Thank you Tom !!! 😃

Superb insight. Very interesting history.

Very intersting video, usefull for my next buy ( when lottery will be on my side! ) I have a question, something you didn't talk about but i never seen before, the Plexiglass of the rear lid / trunk / boot , it is not standard one , neither the prototype one, can you talk about it ? show pictures ?

Thanks !

Amazing knowledge & great entertainment!
