1977 Ferrari 512BB

This very Ferrari 512BB appeared on a poster to advertise its 188mph top speed. Can it still promise such thrills today? Robert Coucher drives the star of many a bedroom wall.

BARRY HAYDEN
‘I loved the fact that the Ferrari 512BB's owner bought the actual car from the poster he had on his wall as a boy. I would need considerably more space for my choice: a Bell 222A helicopter, complete with a lifesize Jan-Michael Vincent.' Barry's superb photography accompanies Robert Coucher’s Ferrari 512BB.

1992 Ferrari 512 TR vs. 1996 Ferrari 550 Maranello

They are two Ferraris at the turn of the last millennium, two grand tourers for an audience that can't do without twelve cylinders. And yet, they are so different! The Testarossa successor, the 512 TR, is a result of racing evolution, while the successor 550 Maranello follows in the lineage of the elegant 365 GTB/4 Daytona.
