Ferrari, Maranello, Italy.  The 308 GTB was 3 litre V8 mid-engined 2 seater sports car produced by Ferrari from 1975 to 1985.  It replaced the Ferrari Dino 246GT.  Top speed was around 160mph and it had a 0-60mph time of under 6.5 seconds.  The GTB had a fixed hard top whilst the GTS had a removable hard top.  Although, not originally designed as a racing car, eventually, some Group 4 versions were built for racing and rallying by Michelotto.  Jean-Claude Andruet won the 1981 Targa Florio Rally in a Ferrari 308 GTB and then went on to win the Tour Auto the same year and the following year.
