DESCRIPTION

A beautiful Manual F355 Spider. Finished in striking Giallo Fly Yellow, with contrasting black leather.

The F355 Spider debuted in 1995, its Pininfarina penned lines honed by 1,800 hours in the wind tunnel, resulting in a blend of aerodynamic performance and elegant style. For the first time on a Ferrari, the semi-automatic soft-top was powered electrically. Initially, the Spider was offered with a 6-speed transmission of which just 2,664 were produced.

The longitudinally mounteoilers, pedals etc -all done by BMW we believe. Believe it could of been owned by Miltek at some point. Only 1 of 2 in this coulr in the UK and believed to be the only SMG in the colour. Been parked up for 5 years and currently being recomissioned -d 3496cc V8 produced a stunning 380 horsepower at a spine tingling 8,250 rpm. The gearbox now had six speeds, with a new design of synchromesh that made it much easier to shift. New electronically adjustable shock absorbers varied their stiffness wit once complete this will be in excellent condition all round.hin milliseconds to suit the road surface. Around Ferrari's 1.86 mile Fiorano test track the 355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12 cylinder 512 TR and that level of performance combined with its sensational shape made it a worldwide success story.

This left hand drive car was supplied new on 02/07/1997 to Ferrari Lausanne in Switzerland, the car has remained in Swiss hands for much of its life where, at the time of cataloguing the car had covered 59,995kms, roughly 37,289 miles. We believe that the car has always been well maintained and the service book indicates the following service records.
