At the 996 launch, many traditionalists were displeased and missed the revered air-cooled cars.

The first cars were met with enthusiasm though and as always Porsche had planned and designed a great new model range that could be used every day or just as a supercar.

Finished in Ocean blue with grey leather this lovely example has benefitted from ongoing maintenance including:

Engine rebuild inc new Intermediate shaft and bearing 40k miles ago

Gearbox rebuild inc torque converter 30k miles ago

Replacement new exhaust, coolant pipes, air con recon, brake discs etc.

Over £12k has been spent as above and she is now ready to cover another 100k miles plus with reliability.

There is a great service history with most services carried out at Porsche main and specialist dealers having recently  had a major £2200 service at Porsche Centre Preston

The 996 are so practical and can be used every day with plenty of storage space and ground clearance for parking etc.

There is a touch screen sat nav fitted, electric sunroof and 18” alloys.

On the road, she drives beautifully and very taut on the chassis, drivetrain testament to the large expenditure.

Supplied fully inspected, serviced, borescope checked with 12 months comprehensive warranty.
