About this car

The Dino 246 GTS is the targa-topped version of Ferrari's mid-engined V6 sports car, and this is one of only 235 right-hand-drive cars built for the UK. It is a matching-numbers example, with engine and chassis numbers both recorded as 05876.

It left the factory in Azure Blue with a Marrone Chiaro leather interior, and was repainted red in 1983. Options include Daytona-style seats, electric windows and Cromodora wheels, with standard wheel arches. The car comes with its original books and jack.

It shows 57,086 miles and has had one keeper since May 1993. The page lists a detailed service and MOT record from 1976 onwards, including engine and gearbox work in the 1990s and 2000s and periods on SORN. The dealer describes it as in good usable condition rather than concours, and it is sold as seen with no warranty.

Ferrari published only a dry weight and a 0–100 km/h time, so weight and 0–60 are null. Production ran to about 1,274 cars but it was not a numbered limited edition, so units are null.).
