Description
Supplied new by UK market importer Maranello Concessionaires for their dealer H. R Owen in London, Chassis 22555 (order F/ 219) was a RHD Verde Pino (106-G-30) car specified with Beige (VM3218) hide, Corda carpets and Air Conditioning. Delivered on April 24th 1978 to the CEO of the Kuwait Investment Office, the original retail price of the car including options came to £13, 146.
In 1983, the car was subject to a full body repaint to Rosso Chiaro. This matching numbers car benefits from a comprehensive service history with supporting documentation confirming the cars provenance. 22555 has just returned to us from a cambelt service by marque specialist SMDG Performance with work totalling £6, 500 along with 4x Pirelli tyres . Prior to this in 2018, the car benefitted from a mechanical restoration by Clydesdale Classic Cars with work totalling just shy of £30, 000.
With the odometer now reading just under 33, 000 miles, offering this exquisite car for sale provides the perfect opportunity to return 22555 back to its original factory hue. We are therefore able to offer the car both in Rosso Chiaro or Verde Pino depending on the new custodians preference.
308’s have historically been overlooked from an investment perspective when compared to their immediate predecessor the Dino 246 and successor, the 288 GTO. This however creates an incredible buying opportunity for the investor and collector looking for the next Ferrari to find fame.
