Jeremy Clarkson's Ferrari F355 Is Back At Auction. Could It Finally Fetch A Six-Figure Price?

Jeremy Clarkson's Ferrari F355 GTS is heading back to the auction block. Iconic Auctioneers will offer the 1996 Ferrari F355 GTS at its NEC Classic Motor Show sale in Birmingham on November 14, 2026, carrying a guide estimate of £200,000 to £250,000 (about $267,000 to $334,000).

Chassis ZFFXR42C000106175 was Clarkson's own car, ordered new and delivered to him in August 1996. He drove it roughly 6,000 miles before giving it away as a reader prize in 2000, and it remains the only Ferrari he has owned outright.

This isn't the car's first trip through an auction house this decade. The F355 GTS previously went under the hammer at RM Sotheby's Cliveden House sale on July 8, 2025, carrying a lower estimate of £180,000 to £220,000 (about $240,000 to $294,000). It failed to sell.

That doesn't say much about what happens this time. Markets shift and bidders in the room change.

A Classic Motor Show crowd is a different audience than a country-house sale, too. Iconic Auctioneers is simply trying again, with a higher number attached.

For context on recent F355 GTS values, a 1997 example in the same color combination sold at an Iconic Auctioneers sale on August 23, 2025, for £120,375 (about $160,700). That's a useful data point given this car's added celebrity provenance and condition work.

Clarkson once called the F355 "the greatest car in the world; ever," a line that's followed this particular chassis through two auction cycles now. Whoever buys it is also buying that quote, framed and attached to a warranty card with his name on it.
