1989 Ferrari 328 GTS

The Ferrari 328 first appeared in 1985 as the successor to the 308. It featured a normally aspirated 3.2 V8 engine and very handsome styling. It became instantly popular, Ferrari went on to produce 7,400 variants worldwide during the production run which finished late in 1989. Now regarded as a true design classic, this ultimate 270 bhp sportscar of the day reached 0 - 60 in 5.5 seconds and went to a top speed of 166mph.

We have the pleasure of offering, what must surely be, one of the most original examples available of this gracefully ageing classic in GTS (Targa top) format. Having covered only 22,000 miles from new, this ABS model 328 is a very special car indeed. First registered on 18th August 1989, it was owned by three collectors prior to the current owner buying the car in September 2009 from Tim Walker. 9 service stamps in the service book detail the mileage of only 22,650 miles. The last cambelt service was conducted by respected marque experts Walkersport at 22,000 miles and the car will be serviced before coming to the auction.

Finished in Rosso Corsa with Crema interior, a brief walk around the vehicle suggests this 328 has been cherished by its three previous owners. The paint retains a lovely shine and the interior is in stunning condition. Supplied with its original tool kit, spare key and history file with bills and invoices, this Ferrari is a true collector's item and offers an exciting investment proposition.
