Anyone owned one or had any experiences with them. Seem to be unloved by many, are they collectable ?

The later ones are better, more powerful (inter cooler fitted and 328-esque styling) and are simple to work on. There are more than 1 in the U.K, Tim's had a couple and I look after a late low-mileage one..

I think the thread is on CS - a German fellow bought one IIRC. Oh, and Tim is restoring a black one but it's taking a while!

Theres one in central Scotland, was talking to the owner the other week when we had a meet up one Sunday morning.

He is under the impression that maranello consessionaires only gets parts and information requests from 2 people. Himself and one other.

It was nice, lhd red. Friendly chap that looked after it.

I've always had a soft spot for them, as long as it's the turbo 208. Lovely NACA side duct detail on them and then there's that "turbo" script on the cam.
