Another bargain?

Guided at £220-250K ($300-340K). At these prices, I could be very tempted to get back into Dino ownership!

Nicely photographed, too.

It looks to be in good shape John. I believe the original delivered scheme was Argento Auteil 106-E-1 with nero vinyl 161 interior but Matthias may be able to confirm if this is correct.

 

that`s correct....

 

It will be interesting to see where the hammer falls. This one https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1972-ferrari-dino-246-gt-1 went for £243,500 recently. If this one goes at the same sort of level, as per the guide, that means that Dinos have dropped around £100K since the high of 2016 when £350K was around the mark. I lost about £25K on mine, but it was worth every penny for four glorious years of ownership, including the pilgrimage to Maranello in 2018 (for which, thanks again Matthias - an adventure I shall never forget).

 

The Dino market has never been stronger IMO.

 

The UK market is much stronger for the best cars John. The Collecting Cars one had quite a number of issues on it and that reflected in the lower selling price. This M series has quite a few issues as well in regards to correct finishes so it should sell at a lower figure if buyers are savvy.

 

Imported car Sept 1972 car with a 1980 V reg. Rather off putting.
