    Looking at buying 05278 which is a UK-supplied RHD 246GTS in red with cream leather and I would be interested to know if anyone has any history on this car. The Dino register has it as being supplied new in Liverpool in the UK in December 1972 in Bianco Polo with blue vinyl. I am told the engine number is 0009707.

    Thanks.

    Is this not a 246 GT model E instead?

    Sorry guys, I must be going mad - of course it's a GT and not a GTS. Apologies for my typo.

    It is a 72 246GT in red with cream leather, Daytona seats and flared arches & Campagnolas (but these have been added by a previous owner). I will get the body number on Tuesday and ask the owner to re-check the engine number and then post them here.
