My 512TR

[JPLandolt]

Hello,
i am João Landolt, 32years old, from Porto, Portugal.
Bought my 512TR in 2008 from a Belgium owner.
It is currently in the shop for a complete service (service, paint job, putting original steering wheel, knobs, mats, etc...).
These are some old pic of it.

welcome - lovely car. I think those have really aged well

[JPLandolt]

Thank you.
I have owned before a 996 carrera 2 and a maserati 3200gt.
I have driven some ferraris (355, 550, 430scuderia...) and this is, by far, my favorite. The level of connection with the driver, the sound (tubi racing installed), the road presence, all make it amazing.

Nice Ferrari, had a 512tr for 5 years, was epic. Do miss it.

Lovely! I've always wanted a 512 TR. Has to be next on my list I think

Very nice.
They're great cars alright. I bought mine a few years back intending to move it on after a year or so but I still have it and it still makes me smile every time I open the garage.
Great car for a proper road trip - enjoy.

hopefully, this one will only be traded for a F40 one day.
i have done a 1200kms trip in it and it is amazingly comfortable.

Saw this one today at the Silverstone Ferrari event, looked stunning.

Never seen a Giallo 512tr before.

João sightly offtopic; how is the Ferrari Community in Portugal? How are the second hand prices
compared to other countries? Portugal was severely hit by the crisis, did it affect the second hand market?

cheers

Bacchus, to me, it is quite strange. Portuguese tend to valorize more the newer and neglect the older.

To me the prices seem to be ok (compared to Germany or Belgium).
