Ferrari LaFerrari
The LaFerrari isn’t just stupendously good looking & insanely functional (at the same time) but can cover the ground like a rocket ship on steroids. How about 0-124 mph in less than 7 seconds & 0-186 mph in 15 seconds. So yeah perfect for a fast run to the shops & for lapping Ferrari’s Fiorano Test Circuit in 1 minute 19.7 seconds!

All views of the LaFerrari from whatever angle they are viewed pay homage to Ferrari’s history & breeding.

The Ferrari 458 Speciale (on the RH side of the photo) is a magnificent car however it wouldn’t be in my list of favourite Ferrari’s.

An asymmetrical Pirelli 345/30 ZR 20 rear tyre – an awesome specification selected for the Ferrari LaFerrari! One of my cars that I have owned, the Subaru 22B also had a similar asymmetric tyre albeit just 235/40 ZR 17 in size – this car had quite stunning road grip almost limp-it like, resulting in a phenomenal level of road grip from all 4 tyres working together with the rally focused 4 wheel drive. Asymmetrical tyres can only be changed on one side only (front to rear). With the LaFerrari none of the tyres can be interchanged! I never needed to change my tyres on the 22B as the car was purchased from new. At first I thought the handling was uninspiring & a little bit bland but once the tyres were scrubbed in the tyre performance was out of this world. More about this exceptional sports road rally car in future blogs.
