Description
A wonderfully analogue 996-generation 911 offered as a hugely enjoyable and usable example. Finished in timeless Black Magic Metallic over black leather, this Carrera 4 Cabriolet is exactly what a properly used Porsche should be - honest, well maintained and ready to enjoy immediately.
Supplied with MOT until May 2027 and recently serviced with an interim oil & filter change in May 2025. The history file is extensive and reassuring, including 20+ invoices from Porsche main dealers and recognised specialists, alongside the original stamped service book, manuals and book packs.
Recent maintenance includes:
• New starter motor
• New anti-roll bar links
• Air-conditioning regas
• Power steering pipes replaced
Importantly, the clutch and IMS bearing were reportedly replaced by Portiacraft London in February 2019.
Cosmetically, the car presents well overall for both age and mileage. Metallic black is notoriously unforgiving, yet this example still retains a tidy and respectable appearance.
Inevitably there have likely been cosmetic repairs during its life, but it remains an honest car that can simply be jumped into and enjoyed exactly as intended. A thorough machine polish would elevate the finish further.
Factory alloy wheels remain in good condition, headlights are clear, and the electric soft top operates correctly with no rips, tears or staining. A factory wind deflector is also included.
Inside, the cabin shows expected age-related wear with leather creasing throughout. The near-side rear door card has suffered heat damage causing some cracking/ flaking, while a handful of trims are beginning to show their age.
Specification includes:
Air-conditioning
Satellite navigation
OEM Porsche radio
Cup holders
CD holder
Wind deflector

Supplied with two keys and Porsche West London number plates.
A genuine driver’s 996 Cabriolet with strong history, desirable manual specification and huge amounts of usable enjoyment still to offer. An increasingly affordable route into proper 911 ownership.
