Ferrari 308 GTS

This is an early Ferrari 308 GTS, the targa-topped version of Pininfarina's small-capacity V8 car. It has the carburetted 2.9-litre engine with four twin-choke Webers, quoted on the page at 255 bhp, and a five-speed manual gearbox.

It shows 7,295 miles on the odometer, but the history is more involved. The previous keeper bought it in 2004 at 26,050 miles and owned it for 21 years. The speedometer was replaced shortly after he bought it, and the dealer puts the combined reading of the two units at 33,345. MoT certificates going back 37 years are said to support the mileage, along with a stack of service invoices from Verdi Supercars and DK Engineering.

The car has recently been repainted in Rosso Corsa, and the Crema interior leather has been refreshed. A cambelt service has also been carried out. Early-car extras include a deep front spoiler, a roof spoiler, 16-inch alloys and a quad Ansa exhaust. The paint is not original.
