The Ferrari Dino 246 GTS offered here was delivered in April 1972 in the color Rosso Chiaro and with a black interior by Ferrari Modena to the official Ferrari dealer Maranello Concessionaires Ltd. in Egham, England. The first owner emigrated from England to Switzerland in the following years and brought the car with him as moving goods. About 40 years ago, we were able to buy this 246 GTS from the first owner and then pass it on to the second owner via an intermediary and good friend, where it was cherished and cared for until recently.
It’s hard to believe, but as luck would have it, we actually bought the car again through an intermediary and good friend and are now in the fortunate position of being able to offer this beautiful Ferrari Dino 246 GTS again. The car is matching numbers and color and is, with original 22’000 miles and first paint, in unrestored, top maintained and absolutely original collector’s condition. The new car invoices from the factory and the Ferrari dealer in England as well as the on-board folder with all original documents such as service/warranty booklet with entry of the first owner from 1972, user and maintenance manual, spare parts catalog and the original registration book are available.

The Dino 246 was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in spring 1969 as the successor to the Dino 206 GT, the first production car with a mid-engine produced by Ferrari. The designation “246” refers to the 2.4 liter displacement and the six cylinders of the engine.
The name “Dino” comes from Enzo Ferrari’s son Alfredo “Alfredino”, who died young in 1956 and was known as “Dino”. The V6 engine he designed was used in Formula 1 and Formula 2 racing cars in the late 1950s and in production sports cars from the late 1960s onwards.
