Description

We at Silverwood are very very exited to offer this superb 997. 1 GT3 RS to the open market.

We have known this example for over a decade whilst in the last surgeon owners posession.

The iconic model of this highly prized 997 generation GT3 RS.

Under the rear lid sits the naturally aspirated 3. 6-litre 'Mezger' flat-six, delivering 409bhp to the rear wheels through an engaging six-speed manual transmission.

A new clutch, flywheel, and thrust bearing were fitted in 2019, and new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyres were fitted in November 2022

The car was first delivered to Hong Kong and re-registered with the DVLA in September 2010, it has been with its current and second UK owner for the last 11 years.


EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

The GT3 RS shares the GT3's power output but boasts several lightweight features that brings its power-to-weight ratio up to 300bhp per tonne.

Weight-saving features include an adjustable carbon-fibre wing, a plastic engine cover, and a plastic rear window.

This example is finished in black with vibrant orange side decals, wing mirrors, and rear spoiler accents.

The cabin features the sought-after
Factory black bucket seats and an orange half roll cage.

It rides on a set of orange 19-inch alloy wheels with yellow callipers, steel brake discs, and recently fitted Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyres.

The specification also includes Sport
Chrono, climate control, cruise control, and an aftermarket Bluetooth-compatible Kenwood infotainment system.

A Guard 40:60 differential with Cup plates has been fitted, and the PCCB braking system has been replaced with steel brake discs.

Accompanying the car is the service book, numerous invoices, and various
MOT test certificates.

was invested in paintwork refurbishment by Silverwood Cars, with stripping and refinishing of the front bumper, both front wings, front splitter, and both rear quarter panels. The orange mirrors and spoiler ends were removed and refinished, the headlights and driving light lenses were refurbished, a new decal set was fitted, and the car was treated to extensive flat and machine polish

Prior to this, QSP Porsche Specialist carried out a major service in June 2019, which included replacing the clutch, flywheel, and thrust bearing, and fitting the upgraded differential.

QSP replaced the front brake discs and pads as part of a service in May 2018.
