Stylish, classic, and now a historically exciting youngtimer Ferrari, with one foot in the brand’s past and one foot in the new era that began with the launch of the subsequent generation, the 360 series.

"Used in a comfortable condition with patina and history that make it a fun and user-friendly Ferrari, a characteristic and a state that many of its brand peers do not enjoy in the same way."

Description

The car was delivered new by the Ferrari dealership Autohaus Ulrich in Frankfurt to its first owner in Wiesbaden in May 1997. Thirteen years later, it was sold to its second owner, with an Italian-sounding name in the small town of Konz. The current owner imported the car to Sweden himself in December 2016 and registered it in June the following year. The current owner is Peggen Andersson, a motorsport figure and Swedish champion in circuit racing. Having been a loyal fan of first Volvo and then primarily BMW in his racing career, one might wonder about his choice and enthusiasm for youngtimer Ferraris, especially since he previously owned a 348, the generation before the 355. The reason turns out to be as simple as it is natural. 'If I'm going to have a sports car, it should be one that is seen and heard,' Peggen said when he bought his 348 in the nineties. And those criteria were also met by an F355 at that time. Meanwhile, today the model is considered a classic that does not exude as much of a show-off vibe as a newer representative of the brand might. The latest approved inspection was done on 2023-07-12.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car had its latest service at AutoCura in Skene in February 2023 at 119,870 kilometers, during which the timing belts and tensioners were replaced among other things. Today, the car has a mileage of 120,100 kilometers. It is equipped with a factory sports exhaust, the original is included. The hinges/dampers on the engine bonnet has lost their strength and need to be replaced.

  • Interior condition:

    A fresh and fine interior impression with good leather upholstery and a little typical wear on the left side bolster of the driver's seat. The owner has spent a lot of time and effort restoring some of the panel 'plastic disease' that often occurs in Ferraris and Maseratis of this era. Now, at least, everything has been fixed and there are no sticky panels or details remaining.

  • Exterior condition:

    Partially repainted on the right side in front of the rear wheel due to transport damage, the front bumper and hood have several stone chips that have been there since the previous owner. There are also some minor marks on the sills and doors. The current owner has deliberately left the front in this condition externally. In the pictures, the right rear rim is slightly damaged; it is currently being repainted and will be on the car upon delivery. Older Bridgestone Potenza tires with good tread.

  • General condition:

    It's hard to use the word 'value for money' in these price ranges, but this example can still be considered to fit that description. It's in a nice, used, functional condition, with important maintenance and service done, along with few owners and complete, extensive documentation. All receipts and invoices are included in the thick binder. Two volumes of workshop manuals are also a nice bonus.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
