This 996-generation Porsche 911 Turbo is a striking example of the marque’s year-round supercar, offered in highly original condition with a strong maintenance history. Beneath the rear engine lid sits the twin-turbocharged 3.6-litre ‘Mezger’ flat-six, producing 414bhp, driving all four wheels via a five-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission with shift buttons on the steering wheel. This 911 Turbo has been enjoyed as intended, but evidently well maintained throughout, and the odometer shows 128,165 Kms since new. This 911 Turbo is finished in the iconic hue of Guards Red, over a lesser-seen Savannah Tan leather-trimmed interior, punctuated by dark wood veneer trim on the upper and lower sections of the steering wheel, the centre console, the dashboard, the handbrake grip, and the PDK gear selector. It rides on the correct set of 18-inch ‘Turbo Twist’ alloy wheels, housing red Porsche-branded brake callipers and shod with Yokohama Neova tyres. The desirable factory specification includes cruise control, a Guards Red instrument cluster, automatic climate control, a heated rear windscreen, Porsche Stability Management, an electrically adjustable rear spoiler, a rear windscreen wiper, an electric sunroof, electrically adjustable front seats with two-position driver memory, and a Bose sound system. This 996 Turbo now features an upgraded Kenwood touchscreen infotainment system with satellite navigation. The car comes with all the owner’s manuals, service books, a full tool kit, and two keys. There is no known bodywork damage, though the seller notes that some minor paintless dent repairs have been carried out. The Guards Red paintwork is reported to be in excellent overall condition, and while the seller notes some minor stone chips on the front and rear bumpers, and there are some small scuffs on the front splitter, this is in line with the car’s mileage and road use. Moving inside, the cabin is presented in great shape. The seller notes some minor wear on the interior trim behind the front seat belts and around the driver’s side air vent. There are also some small blemishes on the instrument trim, slight wear on the passenger seat side trim, blemishes on the driver’s seat side trim, very light blemishes on the driver’s door card, and some creasing on the seats, but no wear or discolouration. There are no known electrical faults, though the seller notes that the rear spoiler does not raise once the car reaches 120kmph, and that the hydraulic system needs to be repaired. This 911 Turbo’s most recent maintenance was carried out in July 2022 at 127,730 Kms by TD Automotive, which consisted of a minor service including new engine oil and filter. Another minor service was performed in July 2018 at 122,570 Kms, with a major service carried out in June 2017 at 118,573 Kms, including new spark plugs.
