Lapo Elkann Ferrari 400i

This picture got posted yesterday on Facebook. Thought it was a nice one to add to the blog.
For those that does not know him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapo_Elkann

Not sure if this car belongs to the Agnelli dynasty. As far as I'm aware Gianni Agnelli did not had a 400 in his collection. Which however would have fitted him nicely as it does come with an automatic gearbox. Due to a car accident in his younger years his right leg got shattered on 7 places and as such automatics had his preference. Here a unique photo of him in his one off 130 estate. And yes, it's the same automatic gearlever as used in the 400.

I just did some double checking and according to the European F400 club Gianni did had a 412. But no further details are revealed, ie no color details, VIN or type of gearbox.

Iconic Blue and Red Ferrari today with me.

Ferrari 400 Magazine Articles

Over the past few days I have been organizing my magazine articles which are available in the download folder. Over time this archive has been growing steadily. Especially with help from those kind people who have been making donations lately - thank you once again! (you know who you are - and I can reveal it's only a very few). Buying these can become quite an expensive exercise as often the shipping costs comes with ridiculous prices. So I buy only the ones which I consider reasonable and affordable. By now it has become quite a collection and as said it was time to structure them a bit more. So I came up with a new naming convention to store them. I simply used the ISO standard as used for the Internet country codes, followed by the year, magazine name and model.

Example: AU_1977_Modern-Motor_365

By doing so you can easily scroll through the download folder to find the magazines and the related articles. I compiled the table below which includes an extra column for the published date. The green entries are the ones which are currently available in my archive. The red entries are known ones which are still missing. I welcome any type of contribution for this list. If you do happen to have a magazine with a missing article please let me know or better; provide me a scan (including the front cover).

I will add this blog on the side bar - labelled "magazine", so you can easily look it up for future reference.

Happy 400 reading everyone!
