A Ferrari F355 GTS once owned by Jeremy Clarkson is heading back to auction after failing to find a buyer last year.

Iconic Auctioneers will offer the 1996 car at its NEC Classic Motor Show sale in Birmingham on Nov 14, with an estimated value of £200,000 to £250,000 ($267,000 to $334,000).

Clarkson ordered the Ferrari new, taking delivery in August 1996. He covered around 6,000 miles in it before giving it away as a reader competition prize in 2000. It remains the only Ferrari he has owned outright.

The car previously appeared at an RM Sotheby’s auction at Cliveden House in July 2025, where it carried a lower estimate of £180,000 to £220,000 ($240,000 to $294,000) but failed to sell.

Finished in Rosso Corsa over a Crema leather interior, the F355 retains its numbers-matching 3.5-litre naturally aspirated V8, producing 380 hp.

It also features the desirable factory carbon-backed sports seats and a six-speed manual gearbox, rather than Ferrari’s automated F1 transmission.
