Description

We are selling this fast Ferrari 308 GTB on behalf of the customer in iconic ‘Giallo’

The 308 GTB (Gran Turismo Berlinetta) is an ideal, classic and reliable sports car, a milestone for Ferrari and the best-selling model of its time, not only because of its fame from the TV series ‘Magnum’. It also served as the entry-level model.

Built from 1975 to 1985, it features a 3.0-liter mid-mounted engine with 8 cylinders in a stylish Pininfarina design. The bodies of models from 1977 onward, including the model offered by us, were built from steel, after the first examples had been made of fiberglass.

This 308 GTB offered here, in the rare and iconic ‘Modena Giallo’, was initially delivered to Austria before making its way into the hands of members of the Dutch Ferrari Club in Holland. It came to Germany in 2016, was driven regularly and underwent a comprehensive overhaul with timing belt replacement in spring 2025. During this process, the defective original engine was also replaced with a reconditioned GTS engine (without dry-sump lubrication). It now presents itself with 4 twin Weber carburetors and a superb sound thanks to a stainless-steel sports exhaust system.

The 308 GTB is a cheerful, spirited vehicle that offers a light and unadulterated driving experience.
