*Italian-market model
*Engine rebuilt in 2015
*Just 160 built


Italy's vehicle taxation class offered more favourable rates to smaller-engined cars and Ferrari rose to the challenge with its 2-litre version of the 308GTB and GTS, which used the 308's V8 engine but with a reduced bore. This 1981 example was imported towards the end of 2014 having up until then spent its life in Italy. In early 2015 the engine was removed and re-built, work including fitting a new cambelt and changing the gearbox oil and later in the year the steering rack was rebuilt. Today this unusual 1980s Ferrari remains in good original condition, with good order bodywork and paint, a very tidy engine bay and a very good all-black interior.
