The 308 is one of the most significant models Ferrari has ever produced. It was pitched at a level in the market which brought the Ferrari experience within the reach of more drivers than ever before, yet was made without compromise.

It is not hard to detect the reason for its success. The Pininfarina-styled body looks as fresh today as it did when it was first shown to the public at the 1975 Paris Salon. There were cars with more power, and cars with a higher top speed, but nothing could touch the 308 under real driving conditions, and nothing could match it for charisma or enjoyment.

This Giallo Modena example with black leather upholstery offered here today is said to be in good overall condition, and is showing just 45,000kms from new. Fitted with air conditioning as an optional extra, this open top Ferrari is offered with an attractive reserve and is sure to find an enthusiastic home quickly. Not to be missed, as 308’s have recently seen a soar in values and in rarer GTS guise in Giallo yellow, this is arguably the one to have.
