1987 Ferrari 308 GTB Replica For Sale

Pontiac Fiero based ‘MERA’ Ferrari 308 GTB replica

This car was imported into the UK in the late eighties as a left hand drive vehicle and was converted to right hand drive by a well known company up North.

It has a 2. 8L rear mounted engine that despite its age still sounds and pulls ok. The mileage is recorded as being 140k but my understanding it has various work done over the years.

It has had a long and varied life and has changed hands a number of times in it’s history.

I purchased this car from a nice chap in Kent last year. The owner had only driven the car locally and sold it to me with a number of niggles that needed sorting.

I have a mechanic son and I have worked on cars for most of my life so we were happy to work through all the things that needed attention.

I purchased a load of parts from ROCKAUTO in the US and have completed the following over the course of a few months :-

Replaced front wheel bearings, both inner and outer
Replaced front brake disks
Replaced front pads
Replaced rear brake disks
Replaced rear pads
Replaced brake fluid
Replaced clutch
Replaced clutch master cylinder
Replaced clutch slave cylinder
Replace clutch arm
Replaced head light actuator relays
Carried out a full service replacing all filters and fluids
Leather seats refurbished

I have a number of other things that may get done before I put the car up for sale but I have other more pressing projects that need attention.

I have considered recolouring the various black louvres in the bonnet and on the rear quarters but I am told this is an accurate replica of a US spec 308 so I will leave them.

The exhaust note is quite nice but for a few hundred pounds you can get a custom unit manufactured as an authentic Ferrari sound is not difficult to achieve.

There are also some areas of the bodywork that need a little attention but these are very minor and do not detract from the overall appearance.

This is an ongoing project and I love driving the car around but it is up for sale as I have a number of projects on the go. It attracts quite a bit of attention where ever it goes and after consulting with a Ferrari expert I am happy at the way it looks. It’s not the real thing but its good fun and a fraction of the cost. This weekend the car was displayed at the Thornycroft Transport Festival in Basingstoke and was surrounded by people for the whole day. On the back of this I have been asked to provide transport for a number of proms over the Summer and I have had some serious interest from potential buyers.

This is an old car and comes with a few little quirks so if you are looking to buy it you are not getting a real Ferrari. The car is 'sold as seen' and can be viewed in Basingstoke. I am happy for any inspection but no tyre kickers or test pilots please.

I will answer any questions as best I can and I am open to sensible offers !
