The Dino 208 GT4 is a classic Italian sports car which was first registered in Italy on June 17, 1975. Exterior-wise, the car is adorned in a striking Rosso Red finish, creating an eye-catching and timeless appearance. Its allure is further enhanced by a luxurious Black leather interior, which adds an element of sophistication to the driving experience. This Dino 208 GT4 was imported into the United Kingdom in January 2014, and it has remained in the hands of its current vendor ever since. Notably, the owner has taken great care in maintaining this automotive gem. Migliore Cars Ltd of Bromsgrove, among others, have been entrusted with its upkeep. This reputable maintenance facility carried out essential works on the engine, brakes, and electrics, ensuring that the car remains in excellent mechanical condition. An interesting historical note about this Dino 208 GT4 is that it was originally acquired with the ambitious intention of transforming it into a Le Mans GT4 replica. However, the vendor ultimately decided against altering the vehicle, choosing instead to preserve the car's inherent beauty in its original form. This decision reflects a deep appreciation for the car's classic design and historical significance.

To cater to specific driving needs, the car is equipped with special wheels that were originally used on the vendor's uprated Ferrari 328 GTS. These wheels were fitted with the blessing of the Ferrari Owners' Club UK, emphasizing the car's connection to a prestigious community of automotive enthusiasts. In 2020, the Dino 208 GT4 underwent a comprehensive repaint, refreshing its appearance and ensuring that it continues to turn heads wherever it goes. The vehicle is offered with a comprehensive History File that includes invoices detailing the full repaint, engine, brake, and electrical work, as well as interior trim repairs. Additionally, the file contains important documents, such as Italian paperwork, Nova paperwork, and a current V5, confirming its provenance and eligibility for road use. As a bonus, the car comes with its original set of Dino wheels, allowing enthusiasts to appreciate its authenticity and originality. In summary, this Dino 208 GT4 represents a well-maintained and impeccably preserved classic Italian sports car with a unique story and a host of desirable features.
