1989 Ferrari

Launched in 1985 the 328 GTB / GTS was essentially an updated version of the 308 with the same V8 engine as its predecessor, but with an increased capacity of 3,185 cc pushed output up to 270bhp. The 328 uses the Ferrari Dino engine produced from the late 1950s to the early 2000s. It is basically the same engine design as that used in the Quattrovalvole model. The styling remained similar, though its overall profile was somewhat ‘softer’, and the car featured colour coded front and rear bumpers. By mid-1988 ABS brakes were available and these cars were fitted with convex shaped wheels, as with our example here. The last production year for the 328 GTS was September 1988 to October 1989 making this example one of the last produced for the UK. With Enzo Ferrari’s death in August 1988, many of these last cars were purchased either as a tribute or speculation in mind. Regarded today as an iconic design with coachwork by Pininfarina - the model is now being recognised as a future classic.

Delivered new 25th May 1989 by Maranello Hong Kong, yet first registered in the UK only twelve days later on 6th June 1989. At the time, the UK was in short supply of 328's and delivery mileage examples were making double list price due to a waiting list of orders.

Rosso Corsa over Crema with red carpets, optioned with aircon and body coloured aerofoil.
