Ferrari Dino

Featured this week at Coys of Kensington - London's renowned automotive auction house - is one of the most sought after of Ferraris; the Dino.

This 1974, quintessential red-on-charcoal Ferrari 246 GT Dino graced three owners' garages. A rare car, built for the right hand drive British market, it has undergone extensive recent restoration totalling nearly $100,000.


The Dino name was special to Ferrari founder Enzo, for it was in honor of his son Alfredino who had died at a young age. Therefore, one can expect that this two door exotic would be both rare and singular among Ferraris - and it was, most definitely.

An important point to note: there are no prancing horses to be found on this model. Only the small tags with "Dino" in cursive.

This example was the upgraded version from the previous 2.4 liter, V-6 of the 1960s to the V-8 of the early 1970s.



Comme d'habitude, Coys has not listed its price.
