This Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole was first registered on 15 August 1985 and is in very good overall condition. The car comes with extensive documentation, including numerous invoices, as well as a valuation report from Classic Data with a grade of 2. With H-registration, a moderate mileage of around 94,000 kilometres and a classic manual gearbox, this example offers an authentic 1980s Ferrari driving experience. The offer is complemented by a second set of wheels and an additional set of sports seats.
The Ferrari 308 is one of the most iconic sports cars from Maranello and became a fixture in the compact mid-engine sports car segment in the late 1970s and 1980s. The ‘Quattrovalvole’ version, introduced in the early 1980s, represented a technical advancement in which the V8 engine was fitted with four valves per cylinder to boost performance and efficiency.
With an output of around 250 hp from a displacement of just under three litres, the 308 GTS Quattrovalvole embodies a balanced blend of everyday practicality and classic Ferrari character. The open Targa concept (“GTS”) complements these qualities with a particularly emotional driving experience. In terms of design, the model is often attributed to Pininfarina, with its clean lines and compact proportions still considered style-defining to this day.
The vehicle is painted in metallic grey, a rather understated yet contemporary colour choice for this model. No information is currently available regarding a possible repaint or the original colour. The exterior condition is described as very good, which is supported by the existing valuation report.
No detailed descriptions of the interior are available, but an additional set of sports seats is included in the scope of delivery. Overall, based on the condition rating, a well-maintained appearance can be assumed.
The Ferrari is powered by a V8 engine with a displacement of 2,926 cm³ and an output of 177 kW (250 hp). Power is transmitted via a classic manual gearbox, which contributes significantly to the analogue driving experience. The technical condition is described as very good; specific details regarding recent maintenance work are not currently available.
The mileage is approximately 94,000 kilometres. The vehicle has an H registration and a comprehensive history with numerous invoices, suggesting it has been continuously maintained. Further details regarding the ownership history or provenance are currently unknown.
A valuation report from Classic Data with a condition rating of 2 is available. In addition, there is an extensive collection of invoices. The next MOT is valid until May 2027. A second set of wheels with rims is also included in the offer.
This Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole combines many of the characteristics that make this model so sought-after by collectors: classic lines, a rev-happy V8, pure driving pleasure and a well-documented history. The combination of its well-maintained condition, H registration and available documentation makes this example particularly interesting.
For enthusiasts seeking an authentic 1980s Ferrari, this 308 GTS offers a compelling foundation – both for enjoyable drives and as part of a classic sports car collection.
The 308 GTS is one of those Ferraris that you don’t just drive, but experience. The open roof, the sound of the V8 and the mechanical directness create a connection that modern sports cars often lack. In this version, it feels pleasantly unpretentious – and that is precisely why it feels particularly authentic.
