We’ve come across some well cared-for cars in our time but we’ve just taken photos of a 911 Carrera 2S that wins the cigar for presentation. This 911 has been owned from new by one car-loving businessman who has driven a very careful 12,000 miles since he purchased the car new from the Porsche Centre in Hatfield in 2005. This 911 is barely run-in! 997’s are looking incredibly good value for money these days and an early one with low mileage like this is very difficult to find. The 997 has some nice design updates over the previous 996 and hints at the earlier 993 in more than one or two areas such as the headlamps which have a more upright look to them. These are cracking cars to drive and are by far and away the least compromising of all ‘supercars’ to own. This is one of the reasons you don’t see many of them with such low mileage as this example – many 911’s are indeed purchased for everyday use such is the ease of ownership of these cars. Reluctantly the current owner is putting his mint Atlas Grey pride-and-joy up for sale and full details of the car can be found by clicking here.

Do 911’s get much better than this? We have just been asked by the owner to find a buyer for his totally stunning – yes totally stunning 997 Carrera 4S. Finished in Guards Red – how rare is that! – with gorgeous magnolia hide with red stitching. The detailing on this car is impressive when your eye follows the red stitching over the seats, dashboard and door panels. Nicely placed bits of aluminium pepper the cockpit and there isn’t a mark to be seen for a car that has done only 17,500 miles. The list of extras is none too shabby either with its PSM, PCM and BOSE. The Porsche-crested 19″ Carrera alloys look fabulous and with the factory-fitted Aero bodykit the car is a real show-stopper. We are told that the original purchase price of this car was over £95k – ouch! So what a bargain it looks today. Take a closer look by clicking here or give us a call on 0845 643 2047. Is there a better-looking 911? We doubt it.

A 911 by any other number…….

The 993 911 evolved from the 964 in the early 90’s and in a relatively short lifespan of only 5 years turned into the 996 which begat the 997.

Knowing your Porsche 911 is very much a numbers game and although ‘911’ was its given number at birth, it is the internal factory code that we mostly use to describe a particular model. Nothing wrong with that of course. There is probably no other car ever produced that is more referred to by its ‘undercover’ number than the iconic 911.
