Overview

*** VAT QUALIFYING ***

Our car is a beautiful 1999 T registered example of the rare manual Ferrari F355 Spider, which with the very little mileage covered, represents a tremendous investment opportunity.
This charming modern classic has only covered 4,440 Kms (2,734 Miles) by only one owner

The true testament to just how well this car has been looked after is the way the carpets are still protected by the plastic film the factory put on for transit, which the previous owner has not removed! (see last image)!

This car has the Rear Challenge Grille & Brake Callipers in Nero

The Ferrari F355 (Type F129) is a sports car built by Ferrari from May 1994 to 1999. It is an evolution of the Ferrari 348 and was replaced by the Ferrari 360. It is a mid-engined, rear wheel drive, V8-powered two-seat coupe, targa, or convertible. Design emphasis for the F355 was placed on significantly improved performance, as well as drivability across a wider range of speeds and in different environments (such as low-speed city traffic).

Apart from the displacement increase from 3.4 to 3.5 L, the major difference between the V8 engine in the 348 and F355 is the introduction of a 5-valve cylinder head. This new head design allowed for better intake permeability and resulted in an engine that was considerably more powerful, producing 380 PS (279 kW; 375 hp).[1] The longitudinal 90� V8 engine was bored 2mm over the 348's engine (85 mm rather than 83 mm), resulting in the small increase in displacement. Engine internals are produced using lightweight materials; the connecting rods are forged in Ti6-Al-4V titanium alloy. The engine's compression ratio is 11:1 and employs the Bosch Motronic M2.7 engine control unit in the 1995 model year, later changed to the M5.2 in 1996 through end of production. The Motronic system controls the electronic fuel injection and ignition systems, with a single spark plug per cylinder. Engine lubrication is via a dry-sump oiling system.
