Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano road testMost people just send us a car. Ferrari sent us a car, a genuine collaudatore (that’s Italian for test driver), several sets of tyres and an entire pit crew. Like we wouldn’t have been impressed anyway…

The KnowledgeThe usual rash of deliberate mistakes, the odd bit of out-of-date information, all mixed up in a light, digestible listings format. We’re taking collective responsibility for this in 2007, so every one of us urges you to send corrections to henryc@evo.co.uk
