Ferrari 308 GT4 Series 2 | 1978

Startpreis CHF 48'000.00

Originally introduced at the 1973 Paris Salon under the name Dino 308 GT4, the name "Dino" was retained until the end of 1976 when it was changed to Ferrari due to popular demand. During the construction period of the model, there was only one major European market model visual change, and this was in the shape of the radiator grille, and location of driving lamps. These are generally unofficially referred to as Series 1, and Series 2 models, with Series 1 cars having a narrower deeper rectangular grille, with the driving lights outboard of it, whilst Series 2 cars had a full width grille with the driving lights behind it at the extremities. This was the first Ferrari to be fitted with a 8 cylinder engine as a standard. The robust, high-revving engine was used in various other Ferrari’s for many years afterwards. This original Swiss delivered Ferrari 308 GT4 was sold new in 1978, a few years later the car moved to a garage-owner and Ferrari-enthusiast in Central Switzerland where it was lovingly cared for and regularly driven by its owner until the summer of 2024 with only 75,526 kilometers covered in total. The vehicle comes with a complete set of maintenance booklets and invoices, providing a well-documented history.
