The Ferrari F355, ‘35’ for 3. 5-litre and an extra ‘5’ for its 5 valves per cylinder, went on sale in 1994 and whilst officially an evolution of the outgoing 348, it was considered a real game changer. Following the introduction of Honda’s NSX, sports cars could no longer be excused for being unreliable or overly difficult to drive and Ferrari didn’t disappoint with their latest release.

Featuring a familiar mid-engined layout, the flat plane V8 used the very latest in 90’s Formula 1 technology to produce a remarkable engine for the era. Producing 380bhp and revving all the way up to 8250rpm, the 109bhp per litre it produced was the highest specific output for a naturally aspirated car at the time.

Styled by legendary Italian design house, Pininfarina, the 355 is considered by many to be the last of the truly beautiful Ferraris. A sign of that great design and styling is that after nearly 25 years it hasn’t lost any of its appeal or head turning potential. With a top speed just over 180mph and a 0-62 time of 4. 6 seconds, the 355 definitely had the performance to match those stunning looks.

The example we have to offer for sale is the most desirable and an increasingly rare model, the GTS. The chance to provide real investment potential and an opportunity to own a future classic Ferrari and all-time great. Only 424 RHD GTS models came to the UK, distinguishable by the removable Targa roof, of which just 74 were equipped with the F1 transmission as this example has. With a six-speed electrohydraulic manual transmission operated by paddles, this automated manual gearbox was capable of super-quick change times when compared to other offerings of the same era.

Our F355 GTS F1 is for sale in the most popular Rosso Corsa paintwork with stunning Crema hide interior. It comes complete with a large provenance file detailing the extensive history of any work carried out on the car over the years. The car was originally sold by Maranello Surrey in November 1997 and has undergone 9 services in total, including 3 belt changes. All necessary work has been carried out without constraints and a lot of the recent work has been carried out by renowned Ferrari specialists Italia Autosport.

The previous owner had owned the car since 2011 and has spent in excess of £40, 000 ensuring that the car is maintained and looked after to the highest standard. Car comes complete with a full service history and large history file, complete with original tan leather Ferrari wallet and information books provided when new. This is a fantastic opportunity to own a lovely rare Ferrari, well looked after and with extensive documentation, and the chance to add one of the all-time great Ferrari models to your collection. The car has covered just 28, 200 miles in total, with a speedometer change at 11, 000 miles and now has an indicated 17, 200 miles on the clock.
