SB | Auction 1999 FERRARI 355 F1 Spider

Or increase bid by

A low mileage example of this late 90's super car in Spider form coupled with the F1 transmission in the rare and hugely desirable Grigio Titanio exterior colour.
This LHD US import is in immaculate condition having been previously owned and maintained by Ferrari guru Scott Chivers, aka "Ratarossa".

This 1999 LHD 355 F1 Spider was first imported to the UK on Jan 1st 2018 having spent all of its previous years in California. This car is the last of the pop up headlight mid engine Ferrari’s and is widely considered as the best mid-engined Ferrari from the classical era. And let's not forget that the 355 makes an awesome noise!

The air conditioning unit works perfectly blowing a steady stream of cold air.
Buttons are not sticky and in excellent condition - a rarity on any 355!
The electrically powered convertible roof works as it should.
A Capristo exhaust has been fitted with the original exhaust also included in the sale.
There is a full Ferrari toolkit with belts and tools intact (see Mechanical & Docs photos)
A front end PPF has been applied.

The original Grigio Titanio paint is near-perfect yet there are some very minor stone chips visible on the lower front bumper that are commensurate with its age.
Both front and rear bumpers were re-sprayed to account for the delete of the US-required reflectors with UK-specification side indicators installed in their place.
The interior of the car presents extremely well on this 355 courtesy of its low mileage.
The drivers side bolster recently received a re-colouring treatment to bring it back to its original Blu Scuro colour.
The blue carpets and floor mats are in excellent condition.
The blue soft top is in good condition with the exception of some minor age related marks and a small tear which is pictured.

The last major "engine out" service was in October 2020 at 21,600 miles, undertaken by Ratarossa himself.
He replaced both cambelts, bearings and hydraulic tensioners.
New alternator drive-belts, a/c compressor, water pump and new spark plugs were also fitted.
All filters and fluids including brake fluids were changed.
Finally, much of the car's recent maintenance and upkeep has been documented on Ratarossa's youtube channel.
It has undergone and passed four MOT's with no advisories. Its next MOT is due mid-July this year.
