The Ferrari 355 Berlinetta took everything that made the 355 so popular on its launch and took it to the next level. First in production from 1997, one noticeable difference that sets it apart from its predecessor is the change in transmission.
The old 6 speed manual was swapped out for a high class, F1 style gearbox management system, developed specifically by the engineering teams at F1 that had won the Brazilian Grand Prix eight years previously, offering faster and more furious gear changes for those that take to the wheel of this model.
Powered on a 3500cc V8 engine, pumping out 180 bhp, top speeds of 184 mph are achievable in the 355 Berlinetta, and it can accelerate from 0 - 60 mph in 4.6 seconds and 0 - 100 mph in 10.8 seconds.
Our incredible Ferrari Experiences start at £49 and are available in over ten locations throughout the UK. This includes well-known courses like Blyton Park in Lincolnshire and Castle Combe in Wiltshire. No matter where you are, our Location tools, accessible at the top left of this page, may help you find the perfect driving experience day at a location near you.
Purchasing one of our open gift cards is a great present idea and the most flexible way to book your next Ferrari driving day package with TrackDays at the time and date of your choosing.
All orders feature email vouchers, but there are also additional gift wrap options available at checkout that we may deliver to you by Royal Mail or DPD.
Making a reservation for a Ferrari driving experience
We take pride in having the most up-to-date availability for all of our experiences since we communicate with suppliers and venues on a daily basis to get them. As a result, you may book directly into any of the future days listed on our Events Calendar if you choose.
If you're buying an open Ferrari package gift voucher, be sure to double-check the validity term, as certain vouchers and special offers may have a shorter or longer validity period, which will be clearly stated on the voucher.
Please keep in mind that reserving a Ferrari Experience on a certain day is just a request, and the day and time you choose are still subject to availability. We usually confirm bookings within 48 hours, but you must wait until you get a final confirmation email before making any plans relating to your reservation. When you submit a booking request, you will get an immediate receipt. This is not the final confirmation.
When purchasing Ferrari Experiences, it is also essential to ensure that the driver meets all age, weight, height, and driving licence requirements. Each event will have its own set of requirements, so double-check that you've covered all the bases. If you are unsure about anything - please call us and we will be happy to help.
We will usually specify whether an experience is just for younger drivers in the package name, although this is not always the case. If you book a Ferrari Experience and the driver does not meet the requirements on the day of the experience, they will most likely be unable to drive and will instead be offered a passenger ride.
The 355 Berlinetta has posted some impressive lap times before, which you could recreate at many of TrackDays’ locations and venues across the UK where we have it available to book for driving experience days.
On Ferrari’s very own test track in Fiorano in Italy, measuring 1.86 miles long, it was two seconds faster than the old 6 speed manual 355 model. In all, of the nearly 4,900 Ferrari 355 models produced over its five year run, nearly 1050 of these were the Berlinetta models.
All experiences are subject to availability. The most recent information on dates when an event may be available can be checked by looking at the calendars on the website, or when you have activated and logged in with your voucher. Please note not all spaces are shown online so if you cannot see spaces for your event please call or email for dates. We will do our best to secure your preferred choice of event, venue and date, but to avoid disappointment book as early as possible, especially for peak times such as weekends and the summer months which book up very quickly. Do not purchase an experience for yourself or as a gift that has a choice of venues if you or the person it is for are only able to travel to one of the choices. Once you are booked, you are bound by the terms and conditions of the event host of which a copy can be made available upon request. In most circumstances, a cancellation cannot be made once a date has been booked.
When booking by phone or online you should not make arrangements in connection with an Event until you have received your final booking confirmation stating your date and time (this does not include the automatic purchase email you receive that confirms what you have just ordered). Your final confirmation will usually arrive within 48 hours of making the purchase. For voucher redemption see 'voucher conditions' below. Where specific elements of an Event such as vehicles or equipment are not available due to mechanical breakdown, we reserve the right to make reasonable substitutions on the day. If this is not possible we reserve the right to cancel the experience at short notice.
Voucher holders must make a prior booking and receive confirmation in order that an open voucher can be redeemed. We recommend that when you have chosen your experience you redeem your voucher at least 21 days in advance of taking your selected experience. We do not guarantee availability on all events, even if the date is showing, so if a chosen event is full or you cannot find a suitable date during the validity period of your voucher then the credit can be used towards an alternative event. Do not arrive at a venue expecting to be able to use your voucher without making a prior booking and receiving a booking confirmation. Trackdays.co.uk will not be held liable for any costs incurred in such circumstances.
Unless stated otherwise, vouchers are valid for one person only. Where necessary a top-up payment can be made to increase the value of a voucher to book a higher priced event. Note that during the out of season months the price of experience may change. If the price of the event is lower than the value of the voucher the remaining credit will be held for use until the vouchers expiry date. We recommend booking as early as possible as you must have undertaken your experience before the expiry date printed on the front of your Voucher. All vouchers will be valid for use up to the expiry date displayed, but after this date, vouchers will automatically expire and cannot be reinstated under any circumstances. Trackdays.co.uk staff are not responsible for reminding or informing customers when a voucher is due to expire. A voucher holder may book a date which is outside of the expiration date displayed on the voucher but must extend the expiry of their voucher for an administration fee. This must be processed before the original expiry date. Voucher credit cannot be used for extension fees or to pay for booking protection.
