For sale here is a 2001 Porsche
911 Carrera Cabriolet, a striking example finished in Basalt Black Metallic with
a complementary black leather interior. This 996 has had six careful keepers,
the current 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 factory
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.
