Description
Offered from an impressive private collection of classic motor cars, this 1983 Ferrari 308 GTBi is among the most recognisable and charismatic V8 models to emerge from Maranello. Presented in timeless Rosso Corsa with contrasting black coachwork, this left-hand drive, American-specification example perfectly captures the spirit and style that defined Ferrari's 1980s era.
Penned by Pininfarina, the 308's crisp, angular lines remain as striking today as when first introduced. As the fixed-roof Berlinetta variant, the GTBi offers the pure, uninterrupted silhouette that many enthusiasts regard as the most elegant expression of the 308 design, combining structural rigidity with classic mid-engined proportions. Few designs of the period have aged with such poise, and the 308's instantly recognisable shape continues to hold a special place in the marque's history. The cabin is trimmed in black leather, offering a purposeful yet elegant environment in keeping with Ferrari's driver-focused philosophy. Classic Veglia instrumentation sits ahead of the driver, complemented by the iconic gated manual gear lever and a three-spoke steering wheel. Together, these elements deliver an authentic analogue driving experience — tactile, mechanical and deeply engaging — qualities increasingly rare in modern performance cars.
Showing 31,763 miles, this example has recently benefited from approximately £5,000 of maintenance carried out by respected Ferrari specialists DCT Scuderia, ensuring it presents in fine mechanical health. The fuel-injected 2.9-litre V8 produces the distinctive note and spirited performance for which the 308 series is celebrated, while the balanced chassis and communicative steering make it as rewarding on today's roads as it was four decades ago. Increasingly sought after, the Ferrari 308 GTBi represents an exciting opportunity to acquire a true icon of 1980s Italian motoring, offered in a highly desirable colour combination and from a significant collection.
