The Appeal
Much of the 911’s appeal is down to there being a version to suit any red-blooded sports car enthusiast. An array of models plus scope to bespoke each one makes these highly capable cars as popular in 2024 as they were 60 years ago.
This 4S leans firmly into both traditions. It is an AWD convertible with a sumptuous factory specification that includes manual box, Bose sounds and multi function electric seats.
A thick history file covers its full service history with £3,000 of work in 2022 and, more recently, a full service by a Porsche specialist. MOT to January 2025 without advisories further reinforces the sense of a car that is both cared for and capable.

This car is registered as Cat N but the vendor states:
'No damage history whatsoever. Vehicle is Cat N recorded but has not had any damage or paintwork whatsoever. In October 2023 last year this car was at a well known Porsche specialist for its major service. All work had been completed and the car was ready for collection by the owner. An electric Porsche Taycan was in the workshop on charge and ignited which caught the building on fire. A number of cars were quickly driven out of the building as soon as the fire started. This car was one of the cars driven out and sustained no damage other than a few small marks on the soft top on the R/H side where small pieces of hot debris in the smoke floated down. These marks can be seen in the pictures and are very superficial and do not affect the integrity or waterproofing of the soft top and may or may not clean off. Please be assured that zero body/paint or mechanical damage to the car occurred. As more of a diplomatic customer care decision the cars were paid out on despite no damage and this resulted in the cars being Cat N recorded. Please do not be deterred by the Cat N record as the car has not had any damage whatsoever and is in beautiful condition throughout.'

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
-
- Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
| Bid Amount | Increment |
|---|---|
| £0 to £9,999 | £100.00 |
| £10,000 to £49,999 | £250.00 |
| £50,000 to £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
