The Appeal

The 996 changed the 911 forever, and to this day is one of the most practical, easy-to-drive gateways into that much-loved linage. Sure-footed, confident, well-built and relaxed. While its water-cooled engine may have brought scepticism, it's settled into a position it deserved - a fine piece of engineering befitting the marque's reputation.

This example has been treated to a complete respray in Porsche Ice Green Metallic - a rare colour that perfectly complements the Silver Grey interior, which has been freshly Connolised. Beneath the surface, the underside and all inner arches have been given plenty of attention, while a borescope inspection has reportedly returned a clean bill of health.
A major service has been carried out, and a raft of new components has been fitted, including engine mounts, air conditioning radiators, coolant pipes, the AOS, and gearbox sump cover. Accompanied by an extensive history file and with a private registration plate included, this 996 is now ready and waiting for its lucky new keepers.
