The Ferrari Dino 208 GT4 was a 2-door fixed-head coupé with 2+2 seat arrangement, based on the Ferrari 308, but with a smaller 2L (1,991cc) V8 engine. This was all thanks to mid-seventies Italian tax rules that heavily penalised higher capacity engines - and because the model was aimed primarily at the Italian market all 840 cars built were left-hand drive. Production ran from 1975 until 1980 at Ferrari's Maranello factory. And it's a great looking car - the body was designed by Bertone, and this example in Giallo Fly was registered in June 1976. Note the Ferrari branding on this car. Older examples (those completed before May 1976) were simply branded Dino.
The Dino 246 was the first car built by Ferrari in large (by Ferrari standards!) numbers, with a total of 2,295 246 GT coupés and 1,274 GTS targas produced between 1969 and 1974. This particular example was registered in the UK in September 1974 (series 3). Equipped with a 2.4L Dino 65° V6 engine it's pretty quick off the block, doing 0-50 mph in 5 1/2 seconds, with a top speed of 148mph. And it's a great looking car in turquoise green!
