The Appeal
Introduced in the 1978 model year, the Porsche 911 SC was the second-generation base model for the now legendary sports car. Beautifully presented, and true to its predecessor's spirit, the SC offered robust performance, timeless design and a pleasant ride - a superb all-rounder.
This particular first-year example boasts a range of customised features, including heated exterior mirrors, a headlight cleaning system, and an electric sunroof. The car's Indian red paintwork and full black leather interior are predominantly original, adding to its appeal for those who value authenticity. The vehicle has been well-maintained by a registered keeper since the 1990s, and it comes with an extensive history, including numerous invoices and receipts from the past 45 years.
