The 996 version of the iconic 911 is a superb car; quick and reliable with a wide range of models on offer, the most iconic is, of course, the Turbo. Featuring four-wheel drive and a 3.6 litre, intercooled engine derived from the 1998 Le Mans winning GT-1 car pushing out 420bhp and hitting 60mph in a whisker over four seconds, this is genuine supercar territory. The 996 was seen as a more relaxed and usable 911; however, in Turbo guise, the driver would get the best of both worlds; a luxury leather interior with every creature comfort combined with the ability to drop the hammer and reach a top speed of a claimed 190mph.

The popularity of this classic model remains undiminished. The usability of the model often results in lower mileage models becoming quite the find for any collector or enthusiast. With just a little over 57,000 miles, this example is immaculately presented in metallic silver with black leather trim and has clearly had a pampered life and kept in a heated garage. The paintwork is in good order and the leather is in beautiful condition and features Porsche embossed headrests. We are informed that all electrics operate as they should and the gear-change through the five-speed Tiptronic gearbox is smooth. This well-equipped example is fitted with a Porsche aero kit with a standard turbo front lip, a Bose stereo system featuring a multi-CD changer, a sunroof and cruise control. The service book is well stamped with most of the work including the most recent years Servicing having been undertaken by a Porsche main dealer. The history is further supported by a file of invoices. There is a fresh MOT test certificate with no advisories. Recent maintenance carried out at Porsche main dealer include, new A/C condensers and system re-gas, new turbo heat shields, new oil pressure switch and new rear tyres. This is a superb example of an ever popular 911 in such fabulous condition that viewing is highly recommended especially with its very attractive estimate. Consigned by Dominic Lake
