The Appeal
A truly modern classic in every sense, the 911 Porsche first arrived on the scene in 1964. Just two years later in 1966, Porsche brought out a convertible in the shape of the ‘Targa’, named in honour of Porsche’s many victories in the historic Sicilian Targa Florio race.
Anticipated new US safety rules, prompted a different approach to the soft-top 911, with the Targa sporting a hefty roll bar to protect its occupants in the event an incident, together with a removable roof which was easily stowed onboard.
This 911 Targa from 1976, just oozes class and sophistication from every angle. Power is delivered from Porsche’s signature 2.7 litre flat-six and transferred to the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual gearbox, just the sporting set up that enthusiasts crave for.
The Whale Tail spoiler, alloy Porsche wheels, three spoke steering wheel and rev counter directly in line of sight for the driver all shout out that this is one very focused, sports car.
The vendor has many happy memories of both European and UK trips in this Porsche and tells us that it’s always been extremely reliable, without any major issues throughout his custodianship.

The Interior
- Appears very original
- Electric windows
- Dog Tooth pattern cloth upholstery
- Sony CD/ Radio
The interior of this 911 does appear to be very original.
From its cloth and leather seats in the classic ‘Dog Tooth’ pattern, to its well-appointed and functional dash, it's classic Porsche by the bucket load. It does show a few signs of use, such as the driver’s seat bolster, the odd stains to seat bases and door pockets which both need a little attention but generally, its in pretty good condition considering this Porsche has been around for 46 years.
The Tara roof too needs a little attention as the inside is slightly sagging and the outside just needs a little re-finishing. Black carpets complement the rest of the interior and are in good condition throughout.
We’re informed by the vendor that all dials, switches & lights work correctly without issues, apart from the heated rear screen.
Overall, it's a functional, comfortable interior , which would benefit from a little careful detailing.
The Exterior
- 29,277 miles indicated
- ‘Whale Tail’ rear spoiler
- Black finished Porsche alloy wheels with silver rims
- Porsche branded rear reflector
- Targa roof
Overall, this 911 Targa presents very well and hasn’t required any remedial work under current ownership.
Underneath, the car has been treated with Waxoyl twice since the vendor purchased it and is described as in good condition.
There is a little paint crazing on the top of the nearside wing, with a little paint bubbling to the bottom of the driver’s side door and rear wing. We believe some respraying has taken place in previous ownership to the lower sections of the car, with a little overspray on the black sill trims & possibly to the roll bar at some time.
There are one or two small knocks to the body, dents which have occurred whilst in the garage over the last couple of years.
The Targa top was re-covered by specialists in 2008, and may require re-examining along with the rubber seal. Throughout its time with the vendor, it has reportedly been dry stored when not in use.
The Mechanics
- Regularly serviced by a local garage
- New timing chains and oil feed tensioners in 2010
- Mechanically quiet
The wonderful sound emanating from a Porsche flat six engine never fails to put a smile on any enthusiasts face and this one isn’t an exception to that rule.
Starting easily and without even a whisp of smoke from the exhaust , this 911 sounded crisp and rasping. It was driven to the photoshoot and the vendor reported that despite not being driven regularly recently, it ran beautifully once warmed up.
Certainly, when being moved around for our photographer, all appeared to be running very well without any signs to suggest otherwise.
This 911 has been regularly serviced by a local garage , with timing chains and tensioners being replaced under current ownership. Nothing apart from normal servicing has been needed over the past years, with only a split plastic airbox causing a small issue, a replacement eventually sourced in the US.
Summary
This classic Porsche 911 Targa is certainly a fine example of German engineering, combining style , power and handling to create an all-encompassing driving experience.
This 911 offers the chance to own one of these iconic cars without breaking the bank. Buy it and what you’ll have is a very usable classic, ready to go after a good service, drive and enjoy.
Then, maybe a few years down the line, it might be time for a little detailing, either way, it’ll be a fabulous car to own and most importantly take out of the garage and drive.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
