The Ferrari 360 was manufactured from 1999 to 2005 and succeeded the F355. It is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive and V8 powered coupe. Ferrari partnered with Alcoa to produce an entirely new, all aluminium space-frame chassis that was 40% stiffer than the F355. Along with a lightweight frame, the new Pininfarina body styling deviated from traditions of the previous decade's sharp angles and flip-up headlights. The new V8 engine utilised a 3.6 litre capacity and, despite what looked like, on paper, as modest gains, in reality the power to weight ratio was significantly improved. The first model to be rolled out was the 360 Modena, followed later by the 360 Spider and finally, as a special edition, the Challenge Stradale.

This example is very attractively presented in Nero Daytona with Nero Daytona seats and has covered less than 26,000 miles from new. Our vendor purchased it following a period of around 15 years in storage, then set about recommissioning the car recently to prepare it for sale. The car was given a full service including cambelt change in 2022 by Ferrari specialists Kent High Performance Cars and has only covered around 1,000 miles since. A very desirable addition to the car is a Tubi exhaust, which lets the V8 sing and would cost many thousands of pounds to fit. Representing amazing value for money and an excellent way into Ferrari ownership, this 360 Spider is fitted with the F1 gearbox, which suits the engine very well and allows effortless driving. Supplied to auction with original leather book pack and service book showing records of maintenance, as well as invoices for the recent works undertaken by Kent High Performance Cars.
