Highlights
- Engine rebuilt in 2020
- Great specification complete with GT3 aero kit
- Almost flawless inside and out
The Appeal
This is a stunning example of a 997, which has been subject to a recent engine rebuild and regular servicing. It has been used sparingly and remains in excellent overall condition. The interior and paintwork show almost no signs of use, so this car wouldn’t look out of place in the smartest of settings.
The 997 generation of Porsche 911 is the last truly small iteration of the car, with later generations rapidly gaining in size to suit regulations. The last of the Tiptronic gearboxes before the switch to PDK in 2009, the 997.1 plays an important part in Porsche history.
This model – finished in black with red details and complete with the GT3 aero kit – is one which should feature in any avid Porsche enthusiast’s collection. And with such care and attention lavished upon it, you can be sure that this 911 will continue to impress drivers and onlookers alike.
History and Paperwork
- Engine rebuild in 2020
- Official Porsche handbooks and service manuals
- Service history from Porsche dealer and specialists
- New MoT to be supplied upon sale
- Private number plate included in sale
The Interior
- Great combination grey leather and red accents
- Bose speaker system
- Great condition
The cabin of this 997 is a special place to be. Immediately upon opening the door, you are immersed in the quality of Porsche’s trim and finish, with the smart leather showing little sign of use, other than a few gentle creases. Other wear includes some signs of use on the driver’s window switch and a little rubbing around the ignition barrel.
With its firmly supportive bucket seats, this is clearly a car designed to be driven. But flamboyant touches, such as the suede headlining and red seat belts reveal the other side of this car’s personality, which would be more than comfortable pulling up in front of the smartest of venues.
The vendor reports that all the components and accessories function exactly as they should and even the original tyre repair kit and tools are all present.

The Exterior
- Complete with GT3 Aero Kit
- Beautiful black paint
- Iconic Fuchs wheels and red brake callipers
The timelessly enduring 911 shape is now firmly embedded in the pantheon of design legends. The 997 generation was applauded for bringing back the oval headlights, returning to tradition after the 996.
This example beautifully exhibits its distinctive 997 curves thanks to its beautifully deep, glossy black paint, which remains in excellent condition. There is hardly a mark on it, which shows just how sparingly and carefully this car has been used.
The vendor reports that the only remedial work undertaken has been a respray of the removable front splitter. This piece can easily be taken off for reasons of practicality when on the public highway, and clipped back into place once you arrive at the track. Balancing the front splitter is the rear spoiler, also part of Porsche’s GT3 package, which looks like it would provide a huge amount of downforce at speed.
Elsewhere, the flamboyant Fuchs wheels set this car apart as a showpiece, confidently displaying the red Brembo brake callipers and discs . Rims such as these can only work on a car with the determined poise of this 911. The car sits on sticky Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres, which were changed in 2018 and appear to have most of their tread remaining.

The Mechanics
- 3.8-litre flat-six
- 5-speed automatic Tiptronic transmission
- £2,000 of engine work in 2020
- £1,600 wishbone and brake discs and pad replacement in 2021
Most importantly, the engine in this particular car was subject to a full rebuild by Porsche specialists, Hartech in 2020. The accompanying invoice confirms that this was a comprehensive job, at a cost of over £2,000.
A further service was carried out in 2021, replacing the brake discs and pads, as well as wishbones. The most recent stamp in the service book is dated May 2022, when an engine oil and filter change was undertaken.
The vendor reports that the car is in mechanically fine fettle, driving exactly as you would hope, with no unusual noises, leaks or smoke. It accelerates stonkingly quickly and corners beautifully.

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.
