- Full service history irrespective of mileage

The Appeal
The 360 has a special place in Ferrari history. The first to feature advanced, lightweight aluminium construction. The last to feature the firm’s legendary Type F131 Dino V8, here delivering 390bhp.
Good examples, then, are something to behold. Like this car. Subtly finished in light blue metallic with complementary dark blue leather interior, it is a very low mileage 360 with less than 31,000kms. That is evident in the very good condition inside and out. There are barely any signs of its 24 years across the interior and exterior.
Regardless of the miniscule mileage it has been serviced religiously - you can check the details in the photographs - including less than 400kms ago. This car is fitted with Ferrari’s innovative Graziano F1 automatic gearbox which allows sequential clutchless changes and switchable drive modes.
Whether you choose to preserve the mileage and condition or get in and enjoy it, this is a collector-quality example of these well regarded and pivotal Ferraris.

For a car designed to be used and enjoyed, the condition of this 2000 360 Modena is quite remarkable. It is typical of the very low mileage, with few signs of its 24 years across the interior and exterior surfaces. They retain the tasteful appeal of its factory blue-on-blue specification.
It is a factory-correct and original, unmodified car right down to the Pirelli tyres and inclusion of the high end Becker Ferrari-branded sound system.
The Mechanics
- Naturally aspirated 3.6-litre ‘Dino’ Typo F131 V8 engine producing 390bhp
- Graziano F1 six-speed sequential automatic transmission
- Gearbox allows clutchless sequential shifts and switchable sport mode
- Full service history with regular maintenance irrespective of mileage
- 400kms covered since last service in 2020
With such a low mileage car it would perhaps be tempting to cut corners on the maintenance. Not so here. Despite having covered under 31,000kms from new this car has been regularly maintained irrespective of mileage - the work has generally been undertaken annually. It has been little used since 2020 and covered just 400kms since the service in that year. To keep ahead of the maintenance and support this car’s excellent provenance the buyer may wish to service the car based on age.
The vendor reports that the car runs and drives very well with no reported issues and no untoward dashboard lights.
