For sale
here is a 2001 Porsche 996 911 Carrera, a striking example finished in
Basalt Black Metallic with a complementary black leather interior. This 996 has
had six careful keepers, with the current owner in possession since October
2017. It is powered by the 3.4-litre naturally aspirated flat-six engine, mated
to a six-speed manual gearbox, delivering the pure, engaging driving experience
Porsche enthusiasts crave.
First registered in June 2001,
this 911 has been enjoyed on leisurely drives and holiday excursions, reflecting
a life of careful use. The car has benefited from a sports exhaust system,
delivering the exhilarating soundtrack expected from a classic 911, complemented
by an induction kit and stylish split-rim alloy wheels. The radio system has
been upgraded to incorporate Bluetooth, blending modern convenience with classic
performance.
It comes with a wealth of
original history, including full documentation of the IMS bearing replacement.
Desirable factory options include Porsche Communication Management, 18-inch
Sport Classic alloy wheels, a DSP 10-speaker audio system, and a detachable
hardtop.
The MOT is valid until 31
March 2026 with no advisories. The car starts, drives, and stops reliably, as
demonstrated on-site for photographs and videos.
Originally priced at
£62,000 with £5,463 of optional extras, the total original cost was £67,463.
This 996 Carrera represents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained,
engaging, and historically documented example of Porsche’s iconic early 2000s
911, now enhanced with tasteful performance and modern technology
upgrades.
