Vehicle Description
The Ferrari 360 is a two-seater sports car manufactured from 1999
to 2005. It succeeded the Ferrari F355 and is a mid-engined, rear
wheel drive, V8-powered coup�. 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
utilises a 3.6 litre capacity and, despite seemingly 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. There was a total of 991 righthand drive 360 spiders
delivered to the UK with 478 of them fitted with the manual
gearbox. This excellent Ferrari F360 Spider with six speed manual
gearbox was supplied new by Maranello Concessionaires in 9th
January 2001 with the following specification: Rosso Corsa
paintwork, Daytona seats, Nero leather interior, black hood, red
carpets and transmission tunnel, Nero hoops, Nero dashboard, Nero
door cards and red brake callipers. This 360 Spider has a good
history with nine services to date, the last this year less than
fifty miles ago at a cost of over �7,000 which included new cam
belts, spark plugs, brake fluid change and new gearbox oil. It has
had five owners from new with the current owner purchasing the car
in 2010; it has only covered 42,000 miles from new. This Ferrari is
supplied with a V5C registration document, an MoT test certificate
which expires in August 2018, the original complete book pack, the
tool kit, a compressor, a torch, two keys and a service history
folder containing receipts and old MoT certificates. The Ferrari
360 Spider is superb to look at and even better to drive. For sale
