Lot details Registration No: GTB 9V Chassis No: ZFFWA19C000075958 Mot Expiry: April 2005
The Ferrari 308 was superseded in 1986 by the mechanically similar, though larger-engined 328. The 308 engine's capacity had been increased to nearly 3.2-litres by increasing both bore and stroke, which, with a higher compression ratio, raised power to 270bhp at 7000rpm, decreased 0-60mph time to 5.5 seconds and boosted top speed to 160mph.
This right-hand drive 328 GTB, which first left the Italian works in 1988, is really special, not only for having been in receipt of full main dealer service history at such leading establishments as Maranello Concessionaires, H R Owen, Nigel Mansell and JCT 600, but also because the two-door coupe has done a claimed to be genuine low mileage. When entered for this sale, there were only 10,820 miles displayed on the odometer, the last full service, which included a cambelts change, only having been carried out in January 2002 at 9537 miles.
Current condition of the Pininfarina-styled bodywork, both panels and underneath, is described as excellent as are paintwork in marque traditional Rosso Corsa, interior in Crema leather and alloy wheels, which have new tyres. With such low mileage, it is hardly surprising that both 3185cc eight-cylinder engine and five-speed manual transmission are reportedly in such excellent mechanical condition, whilst all electrical equipment is said to be working well.
The specification of this fixed head is certainly comprehensive, consisting of colour-coded roof spoiler, Pioneer stereo and electrically-operated aerial, Ferrari-fitted immobiliser and fitted cover. The GTB 9V registration, which is included, is also highly appropriate for this model, of course, whilst the current MOT is valid until April.
All successful bids must be paid in full by midday the day after the auction at the latest.
