The last-of-the-line in traditional Porsches, these Carrera 3.2’s are the best way to deliver the famous air-cooled old-world Porsche driving experience. Evoking a time before power steering and other driving aids altered modern Porsches forever, this Porsche offers an authentic driving experience that made Porsche 911’s legendary.
The 911 3.2 had a redesigned engine inlet and exhaust system, along with the fitment of a service-free Digital Engine Management ignition system (DME), in conjunction with Bosch L-Jetronic fuel metering. This resulted in a significant increase in engine performance and a reduction in fuel consumption, through better engine efficiency and fuel cut-off when coasting. With a capacity of 3.2 litres, and a high compression ratio of 10.3:1, the air-cooled 6-cylinder, horizontally opposed engine produces an output of 230 bhp, at 5,900 rpm. Maximum torque is 284 Nm at 4,800 rpm, and the maximum speed, limited by electronic fuel cut-out, is 152 mph. Acceleration to 60 mph was achieved in under 6 seconds.
This unrepeatable 911 Carrera Sport Targa is presented in wonderful condition both inside and out. The Targa was originally supplied by AFN Ltd Porsche, Guildford in May 1989, and was re-sold by Lancaster Porsche Cambridge in January 1993. In 1995 it was exported to a well-known Porsche collector in New Zealand, whereafter Archibald Motors, Porsche, serviced the car. Our Targa has recently enjoyed a Porsche specification major service, and MOT. The car also has an excellent service history book (14 stamps), Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, Lancaster’s bill of sale, and spare key. The Carrera Sport Targa will be supplied with a comprehensive 12-month warranty.
Available to view now at our London showrooms.
