This is a unique opportunity to purchase and own one of the three Ferrari’s early factory turbo cars. 288 GTO - F40 - 208 Turbo. Not only that, but this example, with its incredible low kilometres is a totally unrestored original car with its first paint still intact. It looks more like a 3 -year-old car, not 40 years! As of January this year as this car turned 40 years old it is now classed as a historic vehicle so is now exempt from U. K. road tax. How cool is it to say that it’s a 2 litre Ferrari V8 Turbo engine fitted with an early single KKK turbo?! (Interesting fact the KKK turbo’s of that were fitted to formula cars). The suspension geometry has also been reset to John Pogson’s secret measurements. The purchase price will include the 208 Turbo fitted Schedoni luggage. This car is a once in a lifetime find, not a badly restored car with high mileage! So fastidious is the preparation on this car, John's brief was to dismantle the engine, gearbox and differential and clean all internal components including the teeth of the gears. It is a second opportunity to purchase a virtually brand-new Ferrari that is un-untampered with. Fully serviced and belted and prepared by John Pogson of Italia Autosport. There is nothing left to do but drive it! Or put it in a museum…
