Quasi una Ferrari?

Although Ferrari described the Dino 246GT as 'tiny, brilliant, safe - almost a Ferrari', few regard it as anything but a Ferrari (after all, were the 246 GP cars of 1958 not real Ferraris?). When I was a lad, the state Ferrari distributors were just up the road, and I thought nothing of waiting half an hour to hear one start. An immaculate example resides near where I now live and, 35 years on, it is still a joy to hear its engine note as it goes by. This example was in the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu.

Among my alltime favorite cars for its gorgeous, quirky Pininfarina coachworks, but man did they require maintenance. This is a lovely shot capturing much of the almost liquid metal work and paint. If you have more views please post them.

Beautiful car, nearly bought a 72 model in 77 but when we looked underneath it was rotten! Asking price? 2050 GBP

 

Of course I would love one now. Asking price? 45-60k GBP

 

Nice shot.

There is a stunning example on display in the Galleria Ferrari. I have some shots if anyone is interested.

 

I owned a 308 GT4 Dino once, although I doubt many of those will make it into Museums )

Yes please! The 308 4 seater seems to have a bit more cred these days.
