The Ferrari 208 GTB and GTS (later the GTB Turbo and GTS Turbo) are a lower displacement variant of the 308 and 328 Ferrari models, offering the thrills of its naturally aspirated brother, without the 38% VAT rate that cars with engine displacements of over 2.0 litres attracted in Italy.

This car was first registered in February 1987, and while it was delivered new within Italy as with all its turbocharged 2.0-litre siblings.

Its last scheduled maintenance was in 2018, which comprised a full service with fresh oil and other fluids, and also with a new timing belt installed. The car is reported to be in good mechanical order, and it will be handed over with a fresh TÜV roadworthiness certificate valid until April 2023. The car’s matching Yokohama tyres are date-coded to 2007, but they appear to have plenty of tread.

Accompanying this GTB Turbo is an original owner’s handbook and 1987 dealer directory, which are stored in the original fabric wallet.
The original tool roll and spare wheel are also present, plus a large amount of old insurance and registration documents from Italy.

Only 328 examples of the turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter for the Italian market where manufactured.
