The Background
The Ferrari 308 GTB was made famous by Tom Selleck in his role as Magnum PI, some 10 years or so later the 308 was given a performance upgrade and the 328 GTB and GTS was born.
The targa model has the removable hard top and also received a number of body styling updates but thankfully kept the trademark hidden front lights and side scoops.
It’s regarded as a very usable classic and still commands good money due to only 1548 being made worldwide.
This particular example was sold new in the USA (hence LHD) in 1988. The first owner then sold it to its second owner in 1997. It changed hands again stateside in 2015. This owner then took the car to Guernsey in the Channel Islands where it was eventually purchased by the current owner.
In the paperwork are all of the necessary documents supporting the car's history , its service history and also its shipping/customs documentation from import including any import checks that were carried out.
The interior comes in the beige/biscuit coloured leather and is truly stunning. The Rosso red exterior and this interior has to be the ultimate Ferrari colour combination.
The Momo steering wheel is in great condition and you can see how everything is set up in the cockpit to face the driver. The stainless gaited gear selector is practically a work of art.
The exterior finished in Ferrari Rosso red is in fine condition with no damage to report. There is the odd minor stone chip but overall it's in very nice condition with the plastics, removable hard top, scoops and plastic trim including the rear spoiler are in fine fettle. The hard top is stowable behind the seats and the leather bag is provided.
The 16” wheels are in as perfect condition as you can get and really set it off, a classic 80s look.
The private registration number does not come with the car. The car has now been issued with an appropriate age-related registration number by DVLA - E342 WEX.
Mechanically the car has covered just 43, 825 miles and has been well maintained over that time. It starts , stops and sounds fantastic and has plenty of get up and go, just like a Ferrari should.
The car has some history in the file and has not seen or required a rebuild of any kind according to the history.
The Ferrari 328 GTS is basically an 80s icon, I mean just look at it. It has all the necessary angles to make waves in the 80s and no doubt featured on many a young persons wall as a poster pin up.
Today , built in low numbers they are still a sought after model as they are known for being on the more reliable end of the thoroughbred scale, and let’s face it everything 80s is back in fashion nowadays.
Low mileage, the right colour combo, killer style and lets not forget its drives as well as it looks, what more could you want in a classic sports car with the famous prancing horse on the badge.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
