Description

2003 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (996)

315bhp all-wheel drive Carrera 4S with turbo widebody, brakes and suspension; 6-speed manual showing 74,969 miles

Supplied new by Porsche Centre Park Lane, London in October 2003 this Carrera 4S features the Turbo model’s wide body, brakes and suspension boasting the 315bhp naturally aspirated 3.6 mated to six-speed manual transmission driven through all-four wheels.
Finished in Seal Grey (L6B4) with black leather interior the car’s specification taken from inside the service book on the data sticker shows the car to have been specified with the following options – UK spec car (C16), thinner driver’s seat cushion (XSU), stainless steel entry guards with logo (X70), Alu-look instrument dials (X71), rear wiper (425), cruise control (454), windshield with graduated tint (567), Bose sound package (680) and also 09991 which suggests the car was subject to Porsche’s bespoke option scheme specified by the original buyer. Inside we note the addition of a rather lovely black leather Techart steering wheel, both thicker in rim and smaller in diameter.
Showing 74,969 miles by its 7 owners (the current is a garage) the history file reveals the owner’s pack with manuals and service book showing 12 service stamps, the first 3 by OPC’s the last 6 all by the same independent, Peak Performance of Prestatyn, last stamped in November 2016 at 69,421 miles. There is also one for a brake fluid change in October 2005 by Porsche Hatfield, and one other for the record of long life guarantee condition report at the same time. In addition, there is a selection of invoices including purchases invoices dated August 2019 at 72,466 miles for £22,000 and May 2005 for £31,787.50 at 58,000 miles.
The invoices include supporting documentation for its early main dealer servicing, subsequent annual services by Peak Performance Centre, and a hand written note suggesting the car was serviced most recently on 22^nd January 2021 with a gearbox service shortly after on 26^th January at which time the centre prop bearing was also replaced however, please note, there are no invoices to support this. In addition, there are 14 old MOTs, 2 keys, the V5C and two old V5’s as well as the fitted Tracker information.
The car’s MOT expired in August 2020, without any advisories at the time of issue, however, we would obviously recommend obtaining an MOT before use and a good check over given the level at which the car is pitched – there’s scope for improvement with a wheel refurb, general tidy up and thorough valet given its been sitting unused for a while. We also note the engine exhibits a slight ticking sound, worth taking into account and which is reflected in the attractive price guide.
