The Appeal
The Carrera 4S is one of the most capable and usable variants of the 996 generation, offering the balance of performance and all-weather capability that makes these cars so desirable. Those who speak fluent 911 will be aware that '4S' denotes all-wheel drive, while 'Tiptronic S' signifies that this car comes with Porsche's excellent semi-automatic gearbox, which can be shifted manually using buttons on the steering wheel. That means this is the sort of 911 you can comfortably use every day, all year round.
This low-mileage 2003 example presents a compelling opportunity, having been in the current ownership for five years, during which time it has been used solely for weekend drives. The car benefits from a complete stamped service history and has recently undergone significant mechanical refreshment, including a comprehensive brake system overhaul. It comes with an advisory-free MOT, ready to enjoy.
The vendor remarks:
"Very smooth drive, great acceleration and glues itself to the road."
