I've driven a couple of 308's, didnt really get on with either as i'm over 6 foot and couldnt get a decent driving position 
They're not that quick either, especially the GTB/Si (although the QV is a bit faster) - A friend in a lightly modded (usual zorst/filter) 106 gti could keep up upto the national speed limit!

Owned one briefly
Fun but hard work to drive quickly
No power steering and no quick rack mean't quite heavy steering and no fun parking.
Reasonably quick but this is a Seventies car so all things are relative!
Brakes not great
AC amazingly good
Engine revs to 8500, with a sports exhaust sound pretty good
Handles OK beach buggy tyres means limit is lower but more progressive .... neutral understeer....beware! wild spin if you hit the anchors too hard on the limit.
A tiny bit expensive to run (12mpg parts...just put a 0 on the end of what you think you should pay for anything) Allow 3-12 weeks for parts to arrive if the real deal.
Hey its a Ferrari, it looks good standing still!
