EXTERIOR
The 3.2 Carrera is arguably one of Porsche’s most charismatic cars, born from the styling of the legendary 911 shape incorporating timeless lines and providing a wonderful merger between both classic and modern variants.
Porsche have always provided a wonderful colour palette and this example sits draped in the exquisite Slate Grey metallic – in quite fantastic all round condition with pin straight panels and uniform paint throughout. Both sills, wings and kidney panels have also been inspected and proved to be in excellent condition. The front splitter retains good shape and structure whilst the factory optioned whale tail spoiler sits proudly on the rear deck.
INTERIOR
The interior space of the 911 boasts classic Porsche ergonomics with a row of dials spread across the dashboard in front of the driver and the switch gear laid out in a simple, linear fashion.

All the seats remain in fine fettle with only light creases to bolsters and light patina to the seat bases. The dashboard is free from any sun damage, cracks or scuffs with door cards wholly original. The grey carpet remains clean and undamaged throughout the cabin, while the front boot has also received the same level of care and attention.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Timeless forged Fuchs wheels present superbly with un-spoilt polished lips and clean black centres, whilst matching Conti-Sport rubber sits on all four corners offering superior grip in both wet and dry conditions.
With recent rear callipers, and subsequent brake fluid replacement, the car performs as it should pulling the car up strongly and in a straight line.
