1995 FERRARI F355 GTS - MANUAL

KEY FACTS

• A truly superb example of the characterful Italian supercar, presented in an ever-popular factory colour scheme and with very low mileage from new.
• Under the engine lid is the 375bhp 3.5-litre ‘Tipo F129B’ V8, which drives the rear wheels via a close-ratio six-speed manual transmission.
• The odometer displays just 51,420km (31,950 miles).
• This F355 GTS was first registered in August 1995, and was acquired by the seller approximately one year ago.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• This F355 was specified in the iconic Ferrari hue of Rosso Corsa over a Nero leather-trimmed interior.
• It rides on the correct set of 18-inch, five-spoke magnesium alloy wheels, which are in great shape.
• The car has been fitted with a more vocal Tubi Style exhaust system, and the original stereo has been replaced with a newer Pioneer radio/CD player.
• The car will be supplied with all of its original handbooks, as well as its full tool kit and maintenance invoices from 2019 and 2020.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• The Rosso Corsa paintwork is believed to be entirely original and is in excellent overall condition, with light swirl marks and scratches in its clearcoat, as well as some small stone chips on the front bumper, commensurate with the car’s mileage and road use.
• Inside, the Nero leather-trimmed cabin is particularly well-preserved, and there is no significant wear on the seats or the interior trim items.
• The black paintwork on the steel door sill covers is bubbling and exposing some surface corrosion, but replacement items are relatively easy to acquire.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical faults with the vehicle, and there are no warning lights showing on the dashboard.
• The car’s last Revisione roadworthiness inspection was conducted in 2020, which it passed with no warnings or recommendations.
• The vehicle has all the certifications required to be included in the prestigious register of ‘Auto d’epoca’, to become a certified piece of automobile history in the year 2025.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This F355’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out in August 2020 at approximately 47,000km by official Ferrari repairer Autofficina Sauro, Bologna, whose technicians inspected the engine, and the only intervention required was to replace the HVAC ECU.
• The cam belts were last changed in 2019 at 43,147km, when the lambda sensor, temperature sensor and battery were also replaced.

SUMMARY

This Ferrari F355 GTS is a great example of one of the marque’s finest supercars, presented in excellent condition throughout and finished in the quintessential hue of Rosso Corsa. Highly original and with only 51,420km on its odometer, this well-cared-for F355 would make a fantastic addition to any collection, and will surely delight its next owner with the howl of its naturally aspirated V8 and the tactile appeal of its gated manual gearbox.
