About this car

This is a left-hand-drive Ferrari F355 Challenge, one of the 108 factory-built cars made for the single-make race series. It is a dedicated race car rather than a road car, finished in Rosso Corsa with a manual gearbox, chassis 111648.

Its competition record is well documented. The first owner, Eberhard Jung, raced it in the 1999 European Challenge, and it then passed to Mathias Korff for the 2000 series before coming to the UK in 2001. It was raced by Witt Gamski, then bought in 2007 and prepared by Paul Witts for the Ferrari Open Challenge. After a long spell in storage, the current owner bought it in 2022. It was last raced in July 2025, taking three class wins and three overall fast laps at Thruxton.

The car has had a bare-metal restoration and performance upgrades by an independent Ferrari specialist, plus a full race preparation last September. Equipment includes a roll cage, OMP harness, Challenge seat, Bosch ABS, new adjustable suspension, a carbon bonnet and a Zircotec-coated exhaust. It shows 29,755 km, about 18,480 miles.
