A potent and timelessly stylish performance convertible, showing a modest 59,556 kilometres on the odometer. Under the rear cover is a naturally aspirated 3.8-litre flat-six, delivering 261kW to all four wheels through a five-speed Tiptronic transmission with steering wheel-mounted shift buttons. This C16-code example was originally delivered to the UK before being exported to Australia within the last couple of years. This handsome 997.1-era 911 is finished in Slate Grey Metallic with a black hood over a grey leather-trimmed cabin with contrast stitching, red seatbelts, and aluminium-look trim. It rides on a set of black 19-inch multi-spoke ‘Sport Design’ alloy wheels with coloured Porsche-crested centre caps, red callipers, and Pirelli P Zero tyres. Factory-fitted equipment includes reversing sensors, air conditioning, Sport Chrono Plus, a Bose sound system, and PCM with satellite navigation. Included in the sale is the owner’s book pack, service book, various invoices and receipts, and two keys.

The seller notes that there are a few small kerbing scuffs on the front driver’s side and rear passenger’s side wheels. Moving inside, there is creasing on the driver’s seat outer bolsters, faint wear on some of the main touchpoints and PCM controls, light scuffing on the driver’s entry sill, and minor scratches on the transmission tunnel and driver’s door card, though the refined cabin presents well overall. The sat-nav system has not worked since the car was exported to Australia, which the seller believes may be a software issue. They are not aware of any other mechanical or electrical faults. The next roadworthiness test is reportedly due on 6 July 2023. The car was last serviced in August 2022 at 58,796 kilometres by Perth Euro, who inspected the vehicle and replaced the engine oil and oil filter. Also in August 2022, Perth Euro aligned the wheels, re-gassed the air conditioning system, and replaced the brake fluid and front suspension top mounts and bearings. The previous service was carried out by Porsche specialist Cridfords in Surrey, England, in April 2021 at 33,965 miles. This included clearing the radiator vents and drains, and replacing the engine oil, oil filter and seal, pollen filter, sump plug washer, and brake fluid. Prior to this, MAX500 Ltd in Guildford, England, carried out a service at 31,081 miles, which included replacing the air filter, spark plugs, auxiliary drive belt, brake fluid, front brake pads, vacuum valve, and offside exhaust flap valve. The rear brake pads will reportedly need changing during the next service.

This is a handsome example of the breed, finished in an attractive colour combination and showing just 59,556 kilometres on the odometer. It would make a natural addition to a wider collection of 911s, and needs nothing to continue serving as a rapid and stylish daily driver or open-top cruiser.
