Replacement engine fitted by JZM at 74,057 miles in 2008 at a cost of £11,084.34
Believed to have been garaged for almost 20 years by the previous owner
Accompanied by a folder full of paperwork
MOT valid until April 2027
The Appeal
This is the Porsche that changed everything. Introduced with a new water-cooled engine and a brand new platform, it was a brand new iteration of the 911 for the rapidly approaching millennium. Many purists raised their eyebrows, but it's rapidly settled into a hallowed hall; enthusiasts have rapidly recognised these accessible, appealing cars for fine performance and charismatic character.
This 1998 example is presented in original specification and is described by the vendor as very clean and tidy for its age. It is believed to have been garaged for almost 20 years by the previous owner, which may well account for its reported condition. The car has benefited from significant investment over the years, most notably a replacement engine fitted by respected Porsche specialist JZM in 2008.
More recently, a new windscreen has been fitted to address delamination. A folder full of paperwork accompanies the car, documenting the investment made over the years, and we understand that it's ready and waiting for its lucky new keeper. image.png1.7 MB
