Selling this amazing machine as I want to go electric!
Please note this car is in France, where I live. Happy to do Zoom / WhatsApp call to show you round the car. Having had it's engine re-done by Hartech, this car now purrs and is completely free of the dreaded (and now considered inevitable) cylinder scoring issue impacting 997. 1s. Whilst the wheels have a couple of minor scrapes, and 2 minor areas of out-of-sight bodywork have slight (and I mean slight) imperfections in the paint (no dents), this car will be a joy to own as it looks amazing and runs well.
If you are looking for a good Porsche 997. 1 that is pretty much sorted, this is it.
