UK non red 328's

Of course Australia is a bit far but there are some car dealer who imported/exorted car with UK. Could be one way.

 

Probably not a good idea. Prices there still seem to be on a high. Not sure about 3x8s, but I noticed a 550 and 575F1, both around 40,000 miles, both asking nearly £140K - about £30K or more over what they would be asking here in the UK.

 

152 GTS went new to Australia, according to the factory figures published; and no GTB.
The Australian GTSs are the Right Hand Drive version of the US market car: among their differences with the standard "euro" model, they have the F105 "040" engine, that is, with catalysator (= their VIN is therefore ZFFXA, not ZFFWA); none did receive ABS, even the cars with the "later" suspension.
The UK-delivered 328s built for that market are the RHD version of the standard euro market model: no catalysator.

If you are after something specific then I’d be calling all the good indies to let them know you are looking and what you are looking for. They will have little black books of people they know who might not currently have their car advertised but might sell.

You will also get on their list so if they don’t have or know anybody at the moment you will be the first they call.

Always worth a few phone calls.

 

Hi Jonathan

Would you please have a colour breakdown of 308 GTB ,i believe 211 Steel UK RHD imported, plus 156 Vetro.

How many left on the road?

Thanks for anything you may be able to share.

 

The same applies as my earlier answer to John. It is work in progress and I don't want to post just yet.

 

Late to this party, having just picked up a Lancia 8.32 I am intrigued by 1980's Ferrari V8s.

Rather than expensively re-spraying a 308/328 to get away from red would it be worth considering a wrap?

They are really good these days, come in any Ferrari colour you like and have a protective function.

Then when/if you come to sell the car you have the option of leaving the wrap on or returning to the famous "re-sale red".

 

About no Red cars, I check my data concerning Australian 328 ( RHD ZFFXA ). Of course I don't know all of them but until today, Aussie no Red 328 should be rarest compare with the others type ( Euro, US etc .. ).

I have only 8 cars no Red ! Some should be a re-sale Red but I "know" only very few Nero, Blu and one Argento Aussie 328. All others are Rosso Corsa. Any Giallo, Bianco, Grigio etc..

Does anybody have others informations about this?

 

Also Australian 328s will have km speedos versus UK ones with miles?

 

Perhaps you could check that one? I have no horse in this race and no affiliation with the seller; plan for your Due Diligence...(the wheels are non-standard, but could be a plus if the original rims are included in the sale)
I'm a bit intrigued by the name he gives for the color, as "Blu Sebring" never was available for 328, so the paint label has to be checked...should the car be in the very rare "Blu medio Met", then the combination of color and leather color could be unique...(it looks rather like "Blu Chiaro" to my eye, but they are not always easy to distinguish on pictures)

I came across this thread curious as to the 550's colour stats as I just bought a red/crema one (which I gather might be even be in the minority when it comes to 550's..?) I wasn't expecting the update 5 years later..! Would be interesting to hear more about the five year search and, seeing the colour change that is to come!

 

Just see back this old thread. @dudlow please tell us more about this GTS ? Work is finish today ?

 

thats going to look stunning; love blue chiaro (my old 348 was in that colour)
