# Ferrari 308 GTS 1977 White MCG 1:18

> A 1:18 scale model die-cast of the 1977 Ferrari 308 GTS in white by MCG — the fibreglass first series, Targa panel in place, in one of the less common factory colours.

Ferrari launched the 308 GTS at the 1977 Paris Motor Show as the open variant of the 308 GTB, distinguished by a removable Targa-style roof panel that is stored in the front luggage compartment when not in use. MCG's die-cast in white gives collectors a version of this V8 classic that sits apart from the sea of Rosso Corsa replicas on display shelves worldwide.

## A Mid-Engine V8 in Fibreglass

The Type F106 AB is the engine at the heart of this car: a 2,926 cc quad-cam 90-degree V8 fed by Weber 40 DCNF carburettors. Crucially, the 1977-production cars used fibreglass (vetroresina) bodywork — lighter and structurally distinct from the steel panels Ferrari switched to from 1980. This makes the first series a short production window of just three years, with a wheelbase of 2,340 mm and an overall length of 4,230 mm.

## The Targa Configuration and a Rare Factory Colour

Ferrari offered the 308 GTS in white from the outset, yet the vast majority of surviving road cars are finished in Rosso Corsa — partly thanks to the model's eight-season run as Thomas Magnum's car in _Magnum, P.I._ (1980–1988). Non-red 308 GTS examples are genuinely less common in the market and can attract a premium among buyers. This model depicts the car in closed-roof Targa configuration, as most owners would have driven it outside of summer: roof panel in place, Pininfarina lines intact.

## MCG's 1:18 Die-Cast

Model Car Group (MCG) focuses specifically on 1:18 die-cast road cars, and the Ferrari 308 GTS fits squarely within that brief. The construction is die-cast metal throughout, replicating the production car's proportions at a ratio of 1 to 18. MCG has built its catalogue around attainable, detailed replicas of European road cars, and the 308 GTS in white extends that range with a colour variant that the more prominent brands have largely left uncovered.
