This Porsche 911 is a presentable and usable example of the popular air-cooled sports car, which has a few performance and cosmetic upgrades. Under the rear engine lid sits a later-model naturally aspirated 3.0-litre air-cooled flat-six, producing around 147kW and driving the rear wheels via an upgraded five-speed manual transmission. This example has been with the seller for five years. The odometer indicates 30,047 miles, though the seller notes that the true mileage is believed to be around 289,000 Kms (179,576 miles) from new. This 911 is finished in a timeless shade of black with gold ‘Carrera’ side decals, over a black vinyl and leather-trimmed interior. It rides on a set of 16-inch polished Fuchs alloy wheels, shod in Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin tyres. The specification includes a heated rear screen, heater and ventilation controls, an electric sunroof, and electric windows. While originally this car would have had a 2.7-litre engine fitted, it has since been replaced by a later 3.0-litre flat-six Porsche motor. The lower front bumper has been changed to an aftermarket item, and a ‘duck tail’ rear spoiler has been added. This example now features an aftermarket black leather-trimmed steering wheel, and a Kenwood CD stereo with auxiliary input. The car comes with a space-saver spare wheel. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: some small humidity bubbles on the front edge of the bonnet. The seats have been previously retrimmed, and new carpets were installed. The seller is not aware of any electrical faults, and they state that there are no warning lights on the dashboard, though they do note that the electric windows are slightly slow, and there is an intermittent grinding sound when changing into second gear. The last maintenance was carried out at an estimated 285,000 Kms by Quality Paint and Panel, which consisted of an engine oil change, new filters, and all new tyres being fitted. This Porsche 911 is a stylish classic air-cooled sports car, which has been customised with a few performance and cosmetic modifications. Presented with a handsome colour scheme, and with a later-model 3.0-litre flat-six engine, it should prove to be a fun addition to a marque enthusiast’s collection, and a very usable companion for warm weekend drives.
