Description
We are delighted to offer for sale this utterly fantastic example of a Ferrari 355 Spider. Personally owned by our Managing Director for the last 3 years, this car was purchased following an extensive, year-long search for ‘The One’ – and it has lived up to this expectation in every respect. Offering a tremendous driving experience, with one of THE greatest automotive soundtracks of any motor vehicle – if there was ever a car to be described a modern classic, surely this is it?, The F355 is widely recognised as the prettiest supercar of all time, with good examples quickly becoming very collectable. The classic finish of this car – with the highly sought-after combination of Rosso Corsa over Nero, with Bordeaux carpets – means it is no exception. Combine with its perfect service record and this car provides a brilliant opportunity to take ownership of one of the best examples of this iconic supercar found in the UK. , , This vehicle has been greatly cherished and maintained to a high standard, regardless of cost, throughout its life. It benefits from a Tubi exhaust system with test pipes (Cats supplied with the car for MOT time) and a genuine Momo Ferrari Challenge steering wheel (original supplied). The interior plastics and buttons have been professionally ‘de-stickied’ which is an expensive and desirable enhancement to any Ferrari of this vintage. Finally, the complicated and contrived hydraulic roof system has been disconnected by The Supercar Tech (Ferrari specialist and ex-master tech at Graypaul Ferrari) in favour of manual operation, meaning that changing the roof position is now 100% reliable, each and every time! This process was as simple as removing four bolts and can very easily be reverted to ‘standard’ should the buyer wish, but it has to be said that it has made the ownership experience so much more enjoyable! , Described by The Supercar Tech as “a minter” at its 2023 service, this car is immaculate throughout and any inspection is welcome – we are confident that this vehicle provides as good an example of this model as can be found outside of a museum. A brand-new set of Bridgestone tyres were fitted in 2023, in addition to a new battery, and the vehicle will be supplied with a fresh cambelt service (completed by The Supercar Tech) and 12 months MOT. The car also comes with the original leatherbound book pack, original tool kit and original leather tonneau cover., Put simply: this car represents a wonderful opportunity to enjoy an authentic and unrivalled ownership experience of perhaps one of the most iconic supercars of all time. Viewing is highly recommended., For further information or to arrange an appointment to view at our showroom in Berwick-upon-Tweed, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
