The Dino 246 is one of those rare examples that acquired the title of 'collector's car' almost while still in production.
It rapidly established itself as one of the 'must-have' accessories of the 1970s and gained a fairly star-studded list of owners.
This example on offer at Coys' auction was purchased by Richards in California in February 1972.
Already a connoisseur of fine cars by the time he took delivery of this model, Richards kept the Dino for 14 years until 1986, and in that time he covered over 25,000 miles.
He brought it to the UK in 1975, where it was registered to his address in Munro Terrace in Chelsea, London and assigned the UK registration number GYL 157N.
Accompanying the car is a letter from the Rolling Stones' manager Alan Dunn confirming Richards' ownership and mileage up until April 1986.
Since then, the car has spent an extended period in a prestigious Japanese collection.
Chris Routledge, Managing Partner at Coys, said: "A Dino offered at 'no reserve' is rare enough in itself and would make this is a highly desirable and collectible item in its own right. But when one adds to this proven long-term ownership by rock and roll aristocracy, the Keith Richards' car has to be the ultimate Dino and will surely give any car collector and rock enthusiast a great Satisfaction!"
