The Appeal
The 997-generation 911 is widely regarded as one of the sweet spots in Porsche’s back catalogue. Combining the classic proportions and analogue character of earlier models with the refinement and usability expected of a modern sports car, it successfully bridged the gap between old and new in a way few generations have managed.
Introduced in 2004, the Carrera retained the naturally aspirated flat-six engine and distinctive rear-engined layout that define the 911 experience, while benefitting from a more sophisticated chassis and a greatly improved cabin. More than two decades on, it remains a benchmark sports car, offering engaging performance and everyday practicality in equal measure.
Ours is a particularly desirable example of the breed, driven for just 44,454 miles over the course of its lifetime and accompanied by a main dealer and marque specialist service history, with the latest service performed less than 300 miles ago. Now offered for sale by its current long-term owner with a fresh MOT pass under its belt, it is sure to appeal to collectors and keen drivers alike.
