The Appeal
The 996 was arguably Porsche coming into the modern era and the model that saw them say goodbye to the old air cooled engine and familiar styling and hello to the refreshed, technologically driven cars that are now the norm in the automotive world.
All-wheel drive technology combined with a 296bhp, 3.4Lflat-6, rear positioned engine provides the usual thrilling experience you should expect from a 911 and the cabriolet element provides that added open top enjoyment that we all desire. This 1999 registered automatic Carrera 4S comes with pages of history, plus proof of substantial work carried out in the last 3years, including those intermediate shaft bearings.

History & Paperwork
- Pages of invoices
- Original manual & service book
- Documented recent mechanical work
Currently residing in a quiet location in Devon, this Porsche has covered an average of a thousand miles per year since coming into its current ownership in 2019. Upon purchase, extensive mechanical works were carried out to ensure perfect performance and longevity of the vehicle.
Several invoices from Porsche specialist SCS Porsche are present, with many totaling thousands, including one for the intermediate shaft bearing which has been replaced with a hybrid ceramic bearing. Additionally, the original service book is present containing no less than 17 stamps by Porsche main dealers and specialists, this is in combination with a large folder full of invoices for servicing and maintenance over its23 year life.
The Interior
- Black leather
- In nice condition
- Minor wear on seats
Inside the 996 black and grey is the theme, with seats, carpets and trim all in the dark hue. The beautiful sports seats are finished in a black leather and contain the usual wear creases to the front, with the drivers seat also containing some further wear to the bolster. The leather would benefit from a good leather conditioning supplement that are readily available.
A few indentations and marks can be found on the back of these front seats but otherwise they are as comfortable and supportive as the day they left the factory. It is a typical Porsche inside, very purposeful and simple layout. The lighter grey carpet adds a little texture to the interior arrangement, adding a layer to the otherwise monochromatic styling. It is nice though and feels very well put together.
The Exterior
- Hood in great order
- Overall great condition
- Polar Silver Metallic
Finished in Polar Silver Metallic, this 996 is presented pleasantly. We took time to go round and spot any blemishes with the only noticeable area present on the rear bumper which has been photographed and a stone chip on the passenger side. Otherwise, this Carrera is in superb condition.
The electrically controlled roof looks brand new and operates seamlessly and all four alloys are unscathed and wrapped in Pirelli rubber. This 996 is the early generation narrow body and looks superb in the sunshine, the PolarSilver is slightly more blue than the usual Arctic Silver seen on many 911’s. It looks great, especially with the roof down.
The Mechanics
- 3.4L Flat-Six
- All-Wheel Drive
- Substantial work carried out in 2019
On request the 3.4L straight six fired up with no issue and issued a joyful sporty note. The car was manoeuvred a few times for the photography and the automatic gearbox felt smooth and easy going. Welet the car run for a few minutes as it hadn't been driven for a few weeks and it ideled pleasantly, with no problematic or concerning sounds. In 2019 extensive work was carried out by Specialists SCS Porsche, the invoices have been photographed so you can see the complete jobs however it’s worth mentioning again that the troublesome intermediate shaft bearing has been replaced and upgraded to a hybrid ceramic bearing.
In addition suspension parts have been renewed, exhaust manifold replaced in 2019plus new brake discs and pads front and rear were fitted in 2021 and four new tyres in April 2022. Any future owner should be reassured that the current owner commissioned comprehensive and vigorous mechanical checks with anything that needed doing to be carried out.
Summary
This is a fine example of the early 996 with a great mechanical record plus huge recent bills for extensive mechanical work. A car built for performance but can happily perform as a daily driver, providing ample comfort and capability in all conditions.

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.
