Porsche 996 Turbo

The vehicle in detail

It has a Hans Mezger-designed 3,600 cc engine, with twin turbochargers, and water cooling, which brings power up to a staggering 420 BHP, making the car capable of 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds. Compared with the previous 993 model, the 996 represented a virtual redesign. Cosmetically, it moved Porsche on in many significant yet subtle ways: the lines were smoothed out, the windscreen was raked right back, the cabin was roomier and the facia finally looked like it had been styled. The structure managed the neat trick of being 45 per cent stiffer yet lighter than the older model. The chassis and brakes are a perfect match for the engine’s performance.

Our low-mileage 996 Turbo Cabriolet was supplied by Porsche Centre Leeds in October 2003 and has enjoyed regular servicing with Porsche main dealers and respected Porsche specialists; details of which are in the large history file, along with the Porsche CoA. Benefitting from a recent Porsche-schedule service, it will also be supplied with a new 12-month MOT and a comprehensive written warranty.  Available to view at our London showrooms.
