AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

IN SUMMARY:
• Ferrari 308 GTSi from 1980, fuel-injected version sourced from the American market
• Equipped with the classic V8 engine and manual transmission
• New battery installed and original spare wheel included
• Accompanied by a certificate attesting the mileage

HISTORY/PANORAMA:
The Ferrari 308 GTS, designed by Leonardo Fioravanti for Pininfarina, is one of the most iconic and celebrated Targa-bodied sports cars from the Maranello house. The “i” variant, introduced in 1980, marked the transition from carburetors to the Bosch K-Jetronic electronic injection system to meet emission regulations, particularly for the U.S. market. This 1980 example comes from the American market and has stood idle for several years. The Book Service is not present and maintenance history is unavailable. The car is supplied with a single key.

BODYWORK/PAINT:
The bodywork is in generally good condition with signs and flaws commensurate with the vehicle’s age. At the lower edge of the front bumper lip the clear coat tends to peel away and there are a few rust spots and minor signs of use.

INTERIORS:
The cabin remains in good general condition, though some details may require attention. The leather and carpeting are in order; however, the edge of the left front seat is somewhat worn. On the dashboard there is a circular indicator that tends to come loose slightly.

MECHANICS:
The car is drivable and the transmission functions. Due to the long period of inactivity, cold starting is difficult (though it improves when warm) and a tune-up of the carburetion/injection is required.
Details on mechanical state:
• New battery just installed
• Front tires in good condition, rear tires more worn
• The odometer does not function (the speedometer works)
• Air conditioning not functioning (possible recharge needed)
• Occasional activation of the brake warning light on the instrument panel
• Original spare wheel included

DOCUMENTS:
The car does not have complete original documentation, but a certificate attesting the mileage is provided.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
