1960 PORSCHE 356 B SUPER 90
In September of 1959, Porsche revealed their fully updated 356 known as the 356B using the revised T5 bodyshell. This differed from its predecessor with the front and rear bumpers being raised by nearly four inches and the headlights repositioned higher, these changes being necessary to meet the stringent vehicle safety regulations in the growing American market. Inside, Porsche fitted a new deep dish steering wheel and deeper front seats. New to the model was the Type 616/7 Super 90 engine which was an indirect replacement for the Carrera de Luxe models. The engine was fully revised with a new intake manifold, a larger Solex 40 PII-4 carburetor and the Carrera air filters. Other detail changes included 9.0:1 pistons, stronger valve springs and a different crankshaft with 55mm main bearings. This Porsche 356 T5 B Super 90 CoupĂŠ was first delivered on 17th January 1961 by AFN Chiswick and we believe the original colour scheme was Slate Grey with a Blue Vinyl and Pearl Grey cord interior. Factory options included the more powerful Super 90 engine and Dunlop tyres. The vendor has stated that the car is thought to have been an AFN demonstrator, but at this time there is no evidence to substantiate this claim. The original registration number was 2748ML and a letter from Porsche confirms these details.

Registration: 2748 ML Chassis Number: 114228 Engine Number: 800671 No Reserve
Little is known about the early history of this example, but prior to the vendor acquiring it we know it was stored for many years. Requiring a complete restoration, this 356 would make an ideal Winter project. The bodyshell requires some repairs, but the vendor is confident that there is no evidence of accident damage. The floors look to be sound and the engine lid, bonnet, and left-hand door are all stamped with the last three digits of the chassis number. No number can be found on the right-hand door, however. The car is described by the vendor as containing 99% of the parts required to finish the restoration. The Cardex states the original engine was a Super 90, number 801713, however the current engine is stamped 800671 but is believed to be the correct engine type. Sold, strictly as seen, with an old-style V5C, this 356 deserves to be brought back to its former glory and would look superb in its original colour of Slate Grey, or could even be the basis for an historic racing car project.

The 993 was the final generation of air-cooled 911s, and as such will always have a special place in the affections of Porsche enthusiasts. It is also widely said to be the last of the 911s that were built whilst engineering integrity overruled accounting pressures at Porsche. Twenty years on, it still looks modern - a truly timeless design. The 993 was launched in the autumn of 1994 and was claimed to be 80% new. The bodywork was altogether more curvaceous, with a number of new panels and the overall look was much smoother and more integrated. Importantly, this new style was still every inch a 911 in the traditional manner, with the profiles of the doors and rear quarter windows remaining unchanged from earlier models. The biggest change under the skin was the new multi-link rear suspension, giving greater driver confidence, less road noise and excellent ride quality. Designed to give a level of passive rearwheel steering (the ‘Weissach effect’), thus controlling the way the suspension behaved under cornering, braking and acceleration, it transformed the 911. It was also the first 911 to be equipped with power steering and an advanced ABS system. The 993 uses essentially the same 3.6-litre engine as the 964, mated to a development of the worthy G50 gearbox, but now with six forward gears. August 1995 heralded the introduction of the Varioram

induction system helping to boost power to 285bhp, and enabling a top speed close to 170mph and acceleration to match. The car seen here is a RHD, 1997 993 Targa with a manual gearbox. This all-original Varioram car has covered just 45,000 miles and has always been thoroughly maintained. It comes with a fully comprehensive servicing record (Porsche Centres and marque specialists Paragon), a complete book-pack and many invoices. It was a highly specified car when new and has had five fastidious keepers since. In striking Zenith Blue Metallic paint, contrasting favourably with the Cashmere Beige leather, this car is surely one of the finest 993s available today. The Targa roof creates a light and airy feel in what is already a very attractive cabin. The Targa model also offers a flavour of open-top motoring whilst retaining structural rigidity for a more driver focused car. The 993-series 911 is regarded by many as a true modern classic, offering genuine usability but still with a real and important place in the history of Porsche’s most famous model. This example is very worthy of the expression ‘best-of-breed’ and is ready to be enjoyed and appreciated. (Please note, the registration M49 NUS will not come with the car)

1980 PORSCHE 911 (930) TURBO COUPÉ
Registration: DBB 246V Chassis Number: 93A0070429 Engine Number: 6700417 Estimate (£): 58,000 - 64,000
The production-ready 911 Turbo was shown at the Paris show in autumn 1974, and not surprisingly in an era when turbocharging was seen as rather exotic, captivated the world’s motoring press. With both racing homologation factors to consider and a marketing opportunity to maximise, the original 930 was assured a full production run from 1975 when the first cars rolled off the line. Rightly, it was billed as a supremely fast and luxurious flagship model, combining ballistic performance and head-turning looks with air conditioning, electric windows and other creature comforts.
new. Painted and trimmed in black, this most discerning combination makes the 930 somehow more charismatic.
The car’s power and performance were celebrated (and kept on the ground) by an enormous ‘whale-tail’ spoiler that cut aerodynamic lift from 397lb to only 38lb, and a wider track that needed those bulging wheel arches to keep it decent. These stand-out visual features becoming known as the “Turbo-look”, an expression still widely used today.
This lovely Turbo is a classic icon and is ready to be used as it was intended, with the vendor having done just this fairly recently when he drove the car from Goodwood to Monaco as part of a prestigious driving tour, where he says it performed ‘superbly’. He added that his 930, whilst on this trip, was revered more often by fellow drivers and onlookers than any other car, regardless of age and value.
In 1977/78, capacity went up from 3.0 to 3.3 litres and an air-to-air intercooler was positioned under the rear spoiler. The spoiler was reprofiled and raised slightly to make room for the intercooler assembly, and this meant saying goodbye to the ‘whale-tail’ and welcoming the equally distinctive ‘tea-tray’. By cooling the pressurised air charge, power was increased from 260bhp to 300bhp, bringing the 0-60 mph time down to 5.0 seconds, and the larger engine helped reduce a lot of the turbo lag inherent in the earlier version.
This car comes with a large history file, containing many invoices for work carried out and a fully stamped service record indicating that it has been looked after by the Porsche Centres Malaya of West Sussex and Heddel & Deeks of Dorset, plus Porsche specialists Tom Ferguson of Gateshead and DSA of Aylesbury.

Widely acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into motor manufacturing, the 356 was a lightweight and nimble rear engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sporting car available in hardtop coupé and open configurations. Over a 15-year production period, the 356 evolved from an aluminium bodied coupé with an 1,100cc air-cooled flat-four engine to a 2,000cc four-cam Carrera engine producing 130 bhp. The 356 “B” was produced from 1960 to 1963 and saw body changes that included a curved front trunk lid, rounded wings compared to that of the 356A and new front and rear sheet metal. To comply with US-federal specifications, the front and rear bumpers were raised and over-riders added. Other key changes were raised headlamps, larger door handles, upgraded brakes and some improvements to the cabin.

With only 8,000 km covered since the car was restored in 1997 and having been stored correctly over the years, the car shows little sign of deterioration. The interior is excellent and just the way you would hope to find it with the painted simplicity that shouts “fifties”, soft, gently patinated black leather seats and simple well-fitting door cards.

1976 PORSCHE 911 3.0 CARRERA TARGA
The Porsche 911 ‘Carrera 3 has a very special place in the history of the 911, as it brought together elements from two of Porsche’s most legendary cars. It was the latest incarnation of the Carrera name, originally introduced to the 911 series as the classic 2.7 RS in late 1972, and the Carrera 3’s 2993cc engine used the same die-cast aluminum crankcase as its cousin, the newly introduced Porsche 930 Turbo’.
as a member of the Government, returning to England in 1982 and bringing his prized Porsche with him. It was then purchased by a Mr. Burnett who registered the car in September of 1984. After just over ten years, the car was sold to Whittet Brothers of Dundee in October 1994 who later sold it on to our vendor in November 1994, and at this point the car had covered 56,806 miles.
Sold between 1976-1977, and during its short two-year life span only 3687 cars were built - a tiny amount compared to nearly 58,000 911SCs and 76,500 3.2 Carreras produced. Of these, 2564 were coupés, 1123 were produced in Targa form, and only a very small number of these were manufactured in RHD.
The car was enjoyed for a further two years, before being garaged in 1996 with the speedometer reading 59,233 miles. It was to remain in this garage until 2004 when our vendor planned to use the car once again and decided to have it mechanically recommissioned by Agra (Precision) Engineers in Dundee. The car had a few oil leaks due to hardening of the oil seals during its years of standing and so the engine was rebuilt at a cost of £4,268.
The 3.0 engine was essentially the phenomenal 911 Turbo’s 2994 cc engine without the turbocharger. Built before the ‘911 SC’ it has everything the SC has, and more. It’s a different drive with more power (200bhp), more torque and benefitted from being 10% lighter too. It also has the 6 bolt flywheel and a crank from the legendary ‘73 Carrera RS. The 3.0 Carrera would go on to be the basis for all future developed 911s up until 1989. Performance numbers for the Carrera 3.0 are astonishingly similar to those of the famed Carrera RS of the early seventies, and it’s the last time Porsche would use the Carrera name until the mid-eighties. Built by Porsche in April 1976, this Carrera 3.0 has an interesting and unusual history. In right-hand drive form and finished in Grand Prix White, it was originally delivered to a Belgian dealer, and from there its new owner had the car flown to Pakistan where he had been posted

However, again it was seldom used and was stored until 2012. The car was put through an MoT test on 19/7/12 at 61,489 miles, before being garaged once more until June 2015 when a further MoT indicated it had covered just 61,529miles. Two new rear tyres and a new battery were fitted at the same time. Now showing an unwarranted, but believed genuine mileage of 61,588mls and this is supported by the history file which contains the V5C, a number of MoTs and various invoices dating back to 1986.

1991 PORSCHE 911 (964) C4 MANUAL
When the Porsche 964 was first introduced in 1989, Porsche made a point of the fact that it was 85% different from the outgoing 911. The design featured more integrated bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, most significant of which was the introduction of four-wheel drive. The displacement was now up to 3600cc, producing 250bhp, power steering and ABS brakes were now fitted as standard, and the torsion bar rear suspension was replaced with coil springs and shock absorbers. Such was its success, that in the five years of production over 62,000 left the factory. This Porsche 964 C4 is a left-hand drive manual car delivered new in Europe and optioned with air-conditioning.

The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the original 911 that first appeared in 1963, before being replaced by the more complicated 964. These final cars were the most flexible and usable of Butzi Porsche’s original design. The all-alloy flat-6 engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971, received a final stretch to 3,164 cc, giving a torquey 231 hp ~ enough to propel the lithe and slippery coupé to over 150 mph, with 0-60 mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. Cars built from September 1986 onward received the more userfriendly G50 gearbox, but all 3.2 Carreras feature galvanized bodies, which together with Porsche’s legendary build quality, ensure that these classics are long lasting.

Presented with the car are invoices detailing this work along with the service history, instruction booklets, past and current MoTs and previous service invoices. Only a reported 75 right-hand drive 3.2 Carrera SuperSports were built by the factory and, as the last “proper” 911, the car gathers new found appreciation, representing an opportunity to acquire one of the rarest variants of all, the wide-bodied convertibles. This example is presented in excellent all round condition and is ready for its new owner.
Supplied by Lancaster Garages in Norwich on the 17th of March 1986, the car was highly optioned with the ‘M491’ option code Super Sport package, which includes the wide body styling of the 930 Turbo, and the stiffer suspension and larger 917-derived brakes also from the Turbo. Showing 97,370 miles, this car has been fastidiously maintained, which is evident in the extensive service history, boasting 13 main dealer and specialist stamps in the service book. Having only covered 200 miles since 2012, the car has also had a recent major service and refresh at a cost of over £2,500. This included new oil pipes and oil cooler, new tyres and a brake refurbishment.

Often regarded as the last of the real Porsches, and now the most sought after, the discontinuation of the 993 in 1998 marked the end of the air-cooled models. Introduced in late 1993, the 993 bodyshell was altogether more voluptuous with smoother lines and a more rounded style compared to the outgoing 964, and the rear arches were flared to accommodate the wider track with a consequential improvement in handling. The interior noise levels were reduced, the ride quality improved and a dual-flow exhaust, larger cross-drilled brakes and improved steering were just a few of the other improvements.

Described by the majority of respected performance motoring magazines as “The best driver’s 911 yet”, the outstanding GT3 RS Generation 2 was introduced by Porsche in May of 2010 to great critical acclaim. A lot of this journalistic enthusiasm was generated by its wholesome 444bhp output delivered in an almost linear form which, in the right conditions, whistled this Gen II car up to 60mph in 3.9 secs, 100mph 4.5 secs later and on to a top speed of 195mph with the horizon approaching rapidly. Effectively a ‘Carrera Cup’ car for the road, the mind blowing straight line performance was matched by its competent and predictable handling owing much to the underpinnings and suspension settings being derived from several years of competition experience with GT3s. The ride/handling balance is exceptional and the cabin is civilised, resulting in a very quick car that can comfortably be used daily. There are 911s and then there’s the 911 GT3 RS.

2004 PORSCHE BOXSTER S 550 ANNIVERSARY
When Porsche unveiled the Boxster as a concept car in 1993, the midengine roadster rekindled fond memories of the Porsche 550 Spyder. In celebration of the 50th anniversary of its famous lightweight sports car, Porsche launched a special edition of the Porsche Boxster S in 2003. Wearing dedicated “50 Years of the 550 Spyder” badging, only 1,953 of these commemorative vehicles were produced. The 550 Spyder was the first sports car specifically designed by Porsche with motor racing in mind, and its successes through the years provided a foundation on which the fame of the Porsche marque spread around the world. The Porsche Boxster S shares many of its features with the 550 Spyder, including body lines that are timeless in their elegance and athletic appeal. To enhance the already outstanding dynamic characteristics of the Boxster S, Porsche included soughtafter equipment and technical features not previously available in the Boxster model line up. Porsche engineers boosted the 3.2-litre flat-six engine’s output to 264 horsepower, up from 258, and reduced the travel of the six-speed manual transmission’s gear change by 15%, further enhancing the driving experience. A sonically tuned exhaust system with a stainless steel tailpipe delivers the sort of sound that stimulates those inside the car as well as those who hear it growling past.

Most of the original 550 Spyders were painted silver, and the special edition Boxster S models reflected their heritage with the same Silver Metallic paint as the Porsche Carrera GT. The majority of these special cars had Cocoa hood and matching leather interior but the owner of this car (number 1511), its only owner from new, chose the Slate Grey leather and Black hood option. According to Porsche World magazine only some 150 examples were made in right-hand drive out of the 1,953 models produced, so this car, in this colour scheme, is therefore very rare. This Boxter presents today in amazing condition and the owner, a discerning collector of older classics, has regularly started the car and run it up to temperature, rarely venturing out of the garage, besides the annual trips for MoT and servicing. As you would expect with a low mileage of only 2,800 and just one owner, all of the handbooks are in place with the service book showing Porsche main dealer stamps. This Boxster S 550 Anniversary model would be a wonderful addition to any serious Porsche collection and such a low mileage, UK specified example may never appear on the market again.

The question of how to tempt new customers into Porsche ownership has always been problematic. On the one hand, you’re trying to uphold the reputation of the company as a purveyor of high-quality, highperformance sports cars while on the other, you’re anxious not to alienate those potential customers whose budget won’t stretch to a new 911. In 1964, Porsche had just such a problem with the sales of their new 911 proving a touch disappointing and continuing demand for the 356, which was scheduled to be phased out, necessitating that the production lines kept rolling. The solution seemed to be financial, and the decision was made to replace the 356 with a four-cylinder, more appropriately priced 911 and, as a result, the 912 (initially 902) was conceived. First available to European customers by June 1965 (initially with 1582 cc and 90bhp), the 912 soon became a market leader, particularly in the USA. In the UK, the 912 was some 30% cheaper at £2,466 compared to the £3,488 price tag of the 911 and went on to outsell its six-cylinder sibling by no less than 188% in 1966. Constructed in late 1966, the 100,000th Porsche built was a 912 Targa police car. The 912 won Car and Driver’s 1967 “Readers Choice” Poll for its class. With its nimble handling combined with high reliability, a racing 912 won the European Rally Championship for its class in 1967. Production of the 912 ceased in 1969 when over 30,000 had found homes.

This particular 912 was first registered in 1967 as an original UK, righthand drive short wheelbase car, and remained in daily use up until 15 years ago when it was transformed by James Booth, a VW engineer at VW Hereford. The car was completely refurbished and rebuilt effectively as a 912T with all the interior trim and external badging from an original 911T. The engine was reputed to have been supplied directly from Porsche and has just had new piston rings and all fluids changed after coming out of a nine year hibernation and is coupled to a dog-leg, five speed gearbox. The recommissioning works were carried out by another highly skilled technician, Brian Woodward who is known for the quality of his work on classics vehicles. Being an early engine, it runs on Solex Zenith carburettors as opposed to the later Webers. The car now rides on Koni Adjustables and the original Fuchs alloys, that were an option when new. All the work was completed to a very high standard and makes this Porsche stand out amongst its peers. The car is also featured on the front cover of Laurence Merediths book, “ Porsche 911.

Offered in the very best colour combination of Guards Red with Black leather interior, this is a true Supercar of the period and rivalled the Ferrari Testarossa and Lamborghini Countach for space on bedroom walls up and down the country!

and paint recalls ‘I didn’t realise how bad the car was until (the car) was chemically stripped and bead blasted with tiny plastic balls’. ‘The inner wings, door panels, doors and spring hangers were the worst areas’. With originality being key, a flat paint finish would have been out of character on some areas of the car so an orange-peel effect needed to be fabricated on the insides of wings and sill bottoms. This was achieved by using a 68-line paint thickener in Guards red - normal paint being 23-line. Jack Clarke was responsible for the running gear and brakes. He remembers the moment he saw the project and realised he was in for some late nights to get it all done. ‘The calipers were seized, the pistons jammed, the handbrake cable stuck and the wheels were scraping on the inside of the wheel arches’. These observations weren’t too daunting until the brief arrived suggesting that as many parts as possible were required to be retained by sandblasting and zinc plating rather than replacing, and have it all finished in just a few months... Just removing and stripping the brakes took an entire day due to corrosion, split calipers, locked handbrake and perished seals, however, shot blasting, zinc-coating and, no doubt a lot of swearing got it to tiptop standard. Finally, refinished wheels and fresh tyres completed this section. On to mechanicals, the section for which their major accolade was received.

Andrew Wrexham, the Porsche Centre Leeds engine shop manager, identified rusty tinware, inhibited fins and baffle plates, corroded aluminium parts, nut fittings and pipework as well as more oil on the outside than the inside. As with the bodywork, attention to originality was key so it was imperative that despite being a 33-year-old engine, as many original parts as possible were to be retained. As such, the engine retains its original aluminium crankcases and rocker covers which were vapour blasted which is the only technique that won’t pockmark delicate surfaces. Despite all their heroic efforts, a new wastegate and new turbocharger were ordered and fitted. The gearbox, though thoroughly inspected required little work. It didn’t need new synchromesh so was cleaned, reassembled and performs well. The end result is a real credit to the restorers. Finally, the interior and electrics.

It was fitted with a 2.7 litre engine developing 167hp and was enjoyed by 5 previous owners. In 2006, the car was taken off the road and stored in largely original condition by the Porsche Centre Guildford. In 2014, the somewhat tired 911 made its way to Porsche HQ in Reading to be “restored/transformed into a 1970’s RS replica with some special modifications.”

The project began in earnest under the leadership of John Manning, Andy Keywood, Andy Orr and 5 other Porsche employees. The car was stripped to a bare shell and prepared for a complete nut and bolt rebuild. At this point, the decision was taken that all components on the completed car should reflect the very best of 50 years of 911 development and evolution. Whilst the shell was being stripped, sandblasted, repaired and readied for paint, some key project decisions took place. The completed car would be painted in Viper Green, a colour that epitomised the seventies era. The wiring would be replaced with modern electronic systems and the suspension would be to a full RS specification all round. The front brakes would come from a 930 3.3 Turbo, the rears from a 3.2 Carrera and the cockpit would boast a brake balance control switch. The gearbox was to be rebuilt with strengthened main bearings. The exhaust system would ideally be loud but not insufferable on the road, and on a standard set up should retain a purposeful but not excessive growl, however, the system should also be adjustable to a full straight through race mode, whenever appropriate. The engine decision was to remove the original 2.7 unit and replace with a development 993 powerplant from the Porsche Technical Department. This was stripped, and nut and bolt rebuilt with ‘Cup’ cams and a Wolf

engine management system. In fact, the engine was tuned live over the internet late one evening with Wolf technicians in Australia, helping ensure the best was extracted from the motor. It was then put through Its paces at Porsche Silverstone by some of the in-house racing drivers, and their reports can be best described as… “Phenomenal.” Having spoken with Porsche, Silverstone Auctions can confirm that the engine has been dyno tested at just over 300hp, and the power-toweight ratio is equivalent to a race specification 1974 Porsche RSR. The results are simply incredible, and we feel this bespoke 911 represents the ultimate reincarnation of the 911 RS concept. It has been built by some of the finest Porsche technicians in the business and the number of hours spent on this vehicle can not even be calculated. The driving experience is simply out of this world and for that reason, Porsche Reading themselves have a significant emotional attachment to this vehicle and consequently, they would like the new owner to contact them to ensure that “their baby” can return to HQ for routine maintenance. An unrepeatable opportunity to acquire a 911 that is 1 of 1, and would have cost well over double the guide price to achieve by a private individual. Inspections are more than welcome, and a full breakdown of this extensive project is available to prospective bidders via email.

1996 PORSCHE 911 (993) C2 TARGA
993 is the Porsche model designation for the version of the 911 manufactured and sold between late 1993 and early 1998, replacing the 964. Its discontinuation marked the end of many years of aircooled Porsches, with the 993 being not just the last air-cooled 911, but also the last of the hand built 911s. The Targa version of the 993 was introduced in model-year 1996 and saw the debut of a retractable glass roof, a design feature that has continued on the 996 and 997 Targas. This system was a complete redesign, as previous Targa models had a removable roof section and a wide B-pillar functioning as a roll bar whereas with the 993 and later cars the glass roof would retract underneath the rear window revealing a large opening. A shade was fitted to help prevent the greenhouse effect when the glass roof was closed. This new design allowed the 993 Targa to retain the same side-on profile as the other 911 Carrera variants and avoided the need to find somewhere to store the removed top of the old system.

From these service records we can see that the car has been through the garages of Evans Halshaw, the Porsche Centre, Guildford and more recently, the Porsche Centre in Byfleet, confirming the level of care and attention this car has enjoyed. The service stamps indicate that in January of 2009 the car had covered 106,498miles and with just over 116,000 miles showing now, this cherished Porsche has recently enjoyed a quiet life. This lovely 993 is finished in Artic Silver with a Black interior and looks to be in very good condition all round. The 17inch, two piece wheels were standard on the Targas and look in excellent order. The engine bay is clean and tidy and the vendor who is known to be particularly fastidious about his cars tells us that it starts and runs well and is road ready. The 993 was a great example of the blend of functionality and usability for which Porsche is famous worldwide. As air-cooled Porsches continue to become more sought after than ever, this Targa in this classic colour combination, looks a very attractive proposition.
This right-hand drive, six speed manual 993 Targa, was first registered on 07/03/1996, being one of the early versions of the Targa, and has been meticulously maintained by its 5 owners with all the relevant

The arrival of the 3.0-litre 911 SC in the 1978 model line up brought some semblance of order to the Porsche range after the mid-seventies. The middle of this decade was a period epitomised by the once maligned ‘impact or big bumper’ models. When launched, these cars looked modern, clean and fresh in comparison to the dated overall appearance of the original 911, now over a decade old. With new and innovative design features like the reflective red strip between the tail-lights with PORSCHE capitalised across it, the ‘78 cars looked altogether sharper. However, as time passed and the 911 evolved further, these models started to be less desirable, resulting in them becoming an accessible route into first time Porsche ownership. Today, with the benefit of hindsight, they are seen as being properly engineered sports cars that drive well with the classic look and feel of an era that is now rightly back in fashion. With an engine based on that of the 930 Turbo, the SC was a real gem with a strong reliable drivetrain. The 2994cc engine produced 180bhp at launch, rising to 188bhp in 1979 and then, just one year later, to 204bhp - only 6hp shy of the output of the legendary 1973 Carrera RS! The SC used the same strong 5-speed 915-series gearbox as its predecessors but was the first 911 to feature servo-assisted brakes. The SC was offered as a coupé, Targa and, in late 1982 (for the ‘83 model year), as a cabriolet. It was a true convertible, and Porsche’s first cabriolet since the 356 of the mid-sixties and proved very popular with 4,214 sold in its introductory year, despite its premium price relative to the open-top Targa.

Here we have a very attractive UK-supplied RHD, 1983 SC Cabriolet in Guards Red with special option black leather seats piped in red. Sold new by Howells of Cardiff on the 22nd March 1983, it comes with a comprehensive history file, including a fully stamped service book, many previous MoT certificates, old tax discs and numerous invoices for work / maintenance carried out. This work has been done by both main dealers and Porsche specialists, including Autofarm, IntaPorsche, Jota and JGC (this being a major service on 03/10/14 at 110,242 miles - the car has covered just 553 miles since). The car is supplied with a set of original keys and is fitted with an operational Tracker device, a quality alarm and an SSI stainless steel exhaust. It is MoT’d until 15/04/16. The car is said to drive very well, coming from a very thorough vendor, who sought a full vehicle appraisal by a marque specialist before purchasing it in 2006. From this report, the vendor was equipped to maintain the car where needed, hence ensuring its fine condition today. With SC prices on the rise, this car represents good value for a classic 911 and a model now ready to take its place in the Porsche hall of fame.

1992 PORSCHE 911 (964) CARRERA RS
The 911 Carrera RS 3.6 was introduced by Porsche in 1992 and was developed specifically for the European market as a track-ready lightweight version of the Carrera 2. Whilst the RS did not look much different from the other 911 models on sale, Porsche engineers utilised the simple and time honoured motorsports philosophy of “reduce weight, add power” to produce the most dynamic 911 since the original Carrera RS in 1973. Porsche went to great lengths to reduce the weight of the 964RS by nearly 175 kilograms. Aluminium was used for the doors and bonnet, and thinner glass was used for the side and rear windows. Inside, Porsche disposed of the 911’s usual luxuries, including its rear seats, power windows, electronically adjustable front seats, and front armrests. Porsche also chose to forgo power steering, resulting in greater steering interaction and feedback for the driver. Thanks to the use of a lightweight single-mass flywheel, the Carrera RS received a healthy boost in power, as well as making the 3.6-litre flat six considerably more responsive than the standard unit in the Carrera 2.

Having previously resided in a dry climate, this left-hand drive car was recently imported into the UK, where all duties and taxes have since been paid. As with the rest of the car, the engine bay is entirely corrosion free and all components remain in excellent fettle. In true RS style, the car is devoid of equipment that is not necessary for rapid progress and the cockpit is workmanlike and functional, sporting only the essentials and remaining in fantastic condition. The carpets, door cards, dash, and fascia show no signs of any scuffs or discolouration. As to be expected the engine pulls extremely well, propelling the RS from 0-60mph in just 5.3 seconds, and the five-speed manual gearbox still feels smooth and precise, allowing the driver to shift with ease. Included in the History File is the original leather document holder, complete with the dealer-supplied owner’s manual and service booklet. With just under 21,500 miles from new, in fabulous original condition and with a history of regular maintenance from the moment it left the factory, this 964 Carrera RS would be an ideal addition to the stable of any Porsche enthusiast.
With its narrow body and lack of rear spoiler, the elegant and powerful type 964 is amongst the most sought after modern non-turbocharged 911 variants. Finished in Grand Prix White the paintwork on this car is in excellent condition, and remains largely original.

In February 2006, Porsche revealed their first generation 997 GT3, and in common with all GT2 and GT3 iterations, most of the developments and upgrades were directly related to performance improvements on their competition cars, and the associated homologation requirements for FIA approval. In addition to the new 415bhp, 3.6 litre flat 6 with its 6-speed box, the vehicle pioneered “zero lift” aerodynamics, meaning, at speed the body shape created only aerodynamic “downforce” with no grip-diminishing “lift” and made extensive use of a racing related version of Porsche’s active PASM suspension system. This made it the first of the quick RS or GT3 versions to feature an electronically adjustable suspension set up. An RS version of the GT3 became available in October of that year weighing some 20 kilos less, and this saving was achieved by the use of a carbon fibre rear wing, a plastic engine cover and a lightweight rear window made from the same material.

The 997 GT3 RS offered here today is definitely, non-negotiably Orange, and is complemented by black wheels, spoilers, decals and details. It’s an original UK right-hand drive car, first registered on 16/03/07 and was purchased by its current owner on the 8th.of April 2008 at which point it immediately became part of a large collection. It was given a major service on the 31/08/10 with 4,994 miles indicated and was briefly used for a short period before being returned to the collection in October 2010. The car has been serviced again recently and an MoT certificate issued at which point the odometer was showing only 5,527 miles. Looking fabulous in gleaming Orange and Black, this two owner RS Porsche must be one of the lowest mileage GT3s in existence and we feel represents an excellent opportunity.
A slightly wider track was concealed in the muscular rear end provided by the Carrera 4 shell, aiding grip and stability at the expense of a little bit more drag, however the reduction in weight to 1375Kg resulted in an improved power to weight ratio of 300bhp /ton. The body panels are unique to the 997 GT3 RS, and a small number of cars were painted in a limited edition Orange colour (8C6) mixed specially for this model.

Rewind to 2003 and Ferrari launched the track-focused Challenge Stradale version of their 360, having reduced the base car’s weight and refined its performance and, naturally, Porsche responded by releasing its challenger, the equally focused 996 GT3 RS. The first water-cooled 911 to wear the RS badge, the 996 GT3RS was similarly lightened, in the Porsche’s case by the adoption of a polycarbonate rear window and carbon fibre wing and bonnet. Other tweaks included an altered engine specification with work focused on the cylinder head, uprated springs & dampers and the option of ceramic composite brakes. Offered here from a stable of other fine Porsches by a long-term Porsche Club GB member is this right-hand drive 2003, 996 GT3 RS which was originally delivered new to Hong Kong to the garage of wealthy businessman and car collector Philip Ma.

The 1973 Porsche 911S represented the pinnacle of Porsche’s sportscar programme in the early 1970s, bettered only in performance terms by the 2.7RS. It was the last year of lightweight cars before the advent of impact bumpers. The 1973 ‘S’ was fitted with the final development of the free revving 2.4 litre, type 911/53 engine producing 190bhp. The transmission also benefitted from the new 915 gearbox, which was stronger and offered an improved gear change. The ‘aero’ package was improved by fitting a front valance spoiler which reduced front-end lift. Coupled with Porsche’s total domination of the World Sportscar Championship and Steve McQueen’s endorsement in the film, ‘Le Mans’, they could do no wrong with the now iconic 1973 911S and its derivatives. Supplied new by Beverly Hills Porsche to a California surgeon on the 1st of July 1973, this left-hand drive example was ordered with an extensive range of factory extras including electric sunroof, black leather Recaro seats, limited slip differential, 5 speed gearbox, electric windows, spot lamps, sports suspension with Koni shock absorbers, tinted glass, and a Blaupunkt radio. The car stayed with its original owner right up until 2002 when it was sold to a Seattleite and between 2003 and 2005 underwent detailed work, including a complete brake overhaul, engine work and new door pockets.

1996 PORSCHE 911 (993) C4 CABRIOLET
The 993 was the final generation of air-cooled 911s, and as such will always have a special place in the affections of Porsche enthusiasts. It is also widely said to be the last of the 911s that were built at a time when engineering standards overruled accounting concerns at Porsche. Twenty years on, it still looks modern - a truly timeless design. The 993 was launched in the autumn of 1994 and was claimed to be 80% new. The bodywork was altogether more curvaceous, with a number of new panels and the overall look was much smoother and more integrated. Importantly, this new style still was still every inch a 911 in the traditional manner, with the profiles of the doors and rear quarter windows remaining unchanged from that time-honoured shape. The biggest change under the skin was the new multi-link rear suspension, giving greater driver confidence, less road noise and supreme ride quality. Designed to give a level of passive rearwheel steering (the ‘Weissach effect’), thus controlling the way the suspension behaved under cornering, braking and acceleration, it transformed the 911. It was also the first 911 to be equipped with power steering and an advanced ABS system.

The 993 uses essentially the same 3.6-litre engine found in the outgoing 964, mated to a development of the worthy G50 gearbox, but now with six forward gears. In August 1995, the Varioram induction system was introduced helping to boost power to 285bhp, which was enough to propel the slippery 993 to a top speed of close to 170mph with acceleration to match. Here is a very fine 1996 993 Carrera 4 Cabriolet with a 6-speed manual gearbox and the reassurance of four-wheel drive. It has the torquier and more powerful Varioram engine and appears in the great colour combination of Arena Red Metallic with Grey leather, a colour-coded new folding roof and Arena Red hard-shell backs on the electric sports seats. After the previous 964 C4, Porsche developed an all-new 4WD system, being both lighter and cheaper than that of the old model. This original car has covered only 81,000 miles, has a full service history from Porsche Centres and marque specialists and has obviously been well looked after, with numerous invoices for maintenance, an MoT until June 2016 and two new rear tyres.

The 356 model is acknowledged as Porsche’s first production car and was a lightweight and nimble handling rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive 2-door sports car available in hardtop coupé and open configurations. Design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and popularity. Porsche re-engineered and refined the car with a focus on performance. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector’s car with the Super 90 amongst the most desirable 356 models partially due to the model’s much-enjoyed success in rallying and its higher capacity engine: The 356 was a fierce competitor in many of the most grueling events of the time, including the 24 hours of Le Mans, the 1000 km Buenos Aires, the Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio, the Carrera Panamericana, as well as many other important motorsport events. The car on offer today is an original right-hand drive example, delivered to Sweden, which in 1961 was a nation that drove on the left. Boasting just four owners in total, the last for some 40 years, this charming 356 in Aetna Blue with beautifully contrasting and recently retrimmed Red Leatherette and Corduroy interior was the subject of a thorough and total restoration including a bare metal repaint performed over a 3 year period from 1975-78. This work was carried out by a number of Swedish, 356 specialists including Lars Ake Ingston who provided the floor and panels and the paint was by Berga Billackering, both well known to the Porsche fraternity in Sweden.

It was available in the 993, 996 and 997 generation of the Porsche 911. This stunning 996 GT2 was delivered new in 2003 and finished in Arctic Silver with a black leather interior. Factory specifications included: sports seats, carbon trim, carbon handbrake and carbon gear lever. Having covered just 20,000 miles from new, the car is supplied with a large service history and original wallet. The first major service was carried out at Porsche Reading at 5,549 miles, then by Porsche East London at 8,565 miles and again with Porsche East London at 11,886 miles, 13,588 miles and at 16,749 miles. In 2012, the car was serviced by Porsche specialists 911 Box at 16,842 miles and again at 18,331 miles in 20/9/14. Prior to coming to the auction, this GT2 will be freshly serviced again.

Having resided in a significant Porsche collection for a number of years, this example has been stored in a temperature-controlled environment and been maintained with no expense spared. The bodywork presents beautifully with very sharp paint quality and even panel gaps. The interior is in beautiful condition and the car is free from any modifications. The 996 GT2 is considered by many to be an underrated model and with only 129 examples ever sold in the UK, the numbers would suggest they have decent long-term investment potential, especially when compared to other GT2 models.

Since the prototype was unveiled in 1963, the Porsche 911 has gone on to become perhaps, the most famous sports car of all time. A classically Germanic blend of engineering excellence and austerely beautiful design it remains to this day in real terms, the only supercar that can be reliably used on a daily basis. In 1973, it had already been 10 years since the 911 was first introduced and its spirit was alive and well. This year brought some major innovations, including the characteristic shockabsorbing bumpers, the ‘ducktail’ and ‘whale-tail’ and a completely galvanised body. In the same year, one of the most influential models in 911 history was introduced: the Carrera RS. Although in 1973 the ‘E’, ‘T’ and ‘S’ had a 2.4 engine, the RS had a tuned engine with a bigger bore and a capacity of 2681cc. A year later the new models (G-series) would be equipped with a detuned version of this same 2.7 engine. The discovery of a completely original, ultra-low mileage, beautifully preserved classic Porsche 911 2.7S fuel injection that has never been on the market before will no doubt attract attention globally and so it should. Finished in the lovely period colour of Sahara Beige with a contrasting beige interior, this 2.7S has been kept away from public prying eyes for just over 37 years and has only covered an incredible 9,571 miles from new. Originally supplied by Leroy Cannon Porsche/ Audi, the car had its pre-delivery inspection on the 15/05/1975. According to the documentation, the car was passed to its second owner in January of 1977 and was pretty well hidden away until 2012. The vendor informs us that the car was then repatriated to Germany and was subject to a TUV inspection on the 29/09/2012. There is paperwork showing that the new owner spent 4,996 Euros on a full recommission carried out by Lundt Auto GmbH Porsche Service (there is a detailed 4 page invoice with the car), and at which point the mileage was recorded at 9,355.

In July of 2015, this amazing Porsche was registered in the UK by the DVLA and given the registration number FRN 426M. The fourth owner decided to have four, newly reconditioned 6 X15 Fuchs alloys equipped with N2 rated, P6000s fitted to the car, and an oil, brake fluid, and gearbox oil service has been carried out by the Porsche Centre in Tewkesbury. It is reported that the car starts at the first turn of the key and settles to a smooth idle, with all the gauges showing normal readings, which should inspire confidence. The brakes are effective and bite when prompted, and all suspension bushes and springs are squeak and rattle free suggesting that this car has lived a cosseted existence. This Porsche’s bodywork retains a deep lustre throughout, and the even panel gaps suggest the structure is straight and taut. The periodperfect interior is also described as being in stunning condition throughout with all gauges and switches working perfectly. Sold with an MoT until April 2016, its original stamped service book, owner’s manual and wallet, original data card, dealer invoice and paperwork, a copy of the US title and other supporting invoices and documents. The original set of 6 X 15 “Cookie Cutter” alloy wheels are also with the car. How well this Porsche has been looked after is quite extraordinary. It’s obviously not new but there appears no evidence of the last 40 years, yet this is not due to an expensive restoration, just conscientious care and attention over the years. Cars like this do not come to the open market very often and Silverstone Auctions feel very privileged to have been asked to handle the sale of this stunning 911, and this car is so special that we expect strong interest from all four corners of the globe.

1986 PORSCHE 924 S
The 1976 Porsche 924 was a complete departure for Porsche, in that it featured a front mounted water cooled engine. The 1984cc engine was essentially an Audi unit which Porsche then tweaked to 125bhp. The power went to a rear mounted gearbox/transaxle, the advantage of this layout was that it gave the car near perfect weight balance which naturally improved the handling. The 924 was clothed in a pretty two plus two body shell which featured a large glass hatchback giving access to a relatively large rear boot making this a very practical sports car. The 2-litre engine, which powered the earlier models, developed 125bhp and the maximum speed was in excess of 125mph. Things were to improve with the arrival of the 924S which was fitted with a 2.5-litre engine with 163bhp available. With its sure-footed handling, the car was to prove a great success and nowadays is a popular choice as a potential future classic. We are informed by the vendor that this beautiful Porsche 924S has been the subject of a £4,000 windows out repaint in its original factory colour of Garnet Metallic Red. With stone chips on the bonnet and various other age related marks around the car, a proper repaint by Panelcraft was the only sensible option to preserve the purity of this 924S and now all the panel work has a mirror like finish throughout with reassuring panel gaps. The “telephone dial” alloys have been refurbished and powder coated and finish the car off beautifully.

Mechanically the car is reported to be in very good condition. There is a fully stamped service book, initially by Chariots OPC, then independent specialist Autofarm who looked after the car for its 2nd owner for over 23 years. All of the work carried out is supported by invoices including its last service and cambelt change in October 2014, and almost every MoT is present so the mileage of 115,700 is absolutely warranted. The vendor informs us that the car is a delight to drive, the 5-speed gearbox is light to use, the air-conditioning works well, everything feels tight and responsive and very well put together with no rattles, groans or squeaks in evidence anywhere. With only four owners from new (one from 1989 to 2012) and a current MoT until September 2016, the car comes with all its original books, wallet, toolkit, radio/cassette and CD player and a spare key. It is very rare to find a 2.5 924S in this condition and it will be difficult to find another car this weekend offering such a great driving experience at this price.

The 1970s represented a truly ‘rich vein’ of Motorsport success for Porsche, regulation changes to ‘level the playing field’ only tested their resolve and ingenuity. The Porsche 917 was rendered obsolete by late 1972 with rule changes to the World Sportscar Championship now geared for”Prototypes”. Without sufficient time to respond and complete a build programme, Porsche switched their attention to the European GT Championship, developing still further the successful 2.7 RS. If ever there was justice, it prevailed in early 1973 when a Porsche 2.8 RSR, virtually ‘out of the box’, won the 24hrs of Daytona in a field littered with Prototypes. Unsurprisingly, it totally dominated European GTs (considering its 911 underpinnings, a remarkable achievement). The 911 RSR derivatives would remain a ‘nemesis’ to manufacturers for a decade. Porsche entries won all of the ‘Blue Riband’ events - Le Mans, Daytona, Sebring, etc. with regularity. The RSR proved just perfect for the 1973 Targa Florio, the Lennep/Muller pairing winning in a Martini Racing Carrera. Only 49 Carrera RSRs were built by Porsche, very few remain as road cars and are subsequently fantastically expensive. Considering how dominating and effective these cars were, the build execution was relatively simple. The factory build process can be replicated as long as the ‘parts bin contains a 1973 911 shell, the correct 2.8 RSR engine and a talented assembly team. We are informed by the vendor that this stunning RSR replica is built from a genuine 1973 German chassis, and as such may be eligible for historic racing events. Essentially this is an M491 conversion which includes a fully documented full engine rebuild by ATG AutoTeam-Glinde, GMBH at a cost of 12,000 Euros (£8,800). The engine conversion consisted of a tuned 3.0 (2994cc) unit, with RSR pistons, rods and pods, and sports camshafts developing 176kw (240PS). It has been totally overhauled and detailed and a lightweight stainless

In February 2006, Porsche revealed the first generation 997 GT3 which, in addition to a new 415 hp, 3.6 litre flat-six engine featured “zero lift” aerodynamics, meaning the car creates only aerodynamic downforce and no grip-diminishing “lift”. The vehicle made use of a modified, race developed version of Porsche’s active suspension making it the first of Porsche’s RS or GT3 versions to feature an electronically adjustable suspension system. The vehicle has a rated 0-60 mph time of 4.1 seconds and has a top speed of 193 miles per hour (311 km/h). The GT3 returned to the styling of the original, with a sculptured flowing rear spoiler rather than the flat slab RS variety. The 997 GT3 was tuned for track day events, but with rose-jointed suspension, possessed an uncanny ability to ride comfortably over poor tarmac. The six-speed manual transmission was also adapted to the new GT3 engine’s extended power band by changing the gear ratios. This particular example was built on the 4th of April 2007 and dispatched to the Porsche Centre Colchester. Finished in Basalt Black Metallic the car was optioned from new with the ClubSport Package and lightweight Carbon Bucket seats.

1972 PORSCHE 911 2.7 RS TOURING
The Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 is regarded by many collectors and journalists as the greatest 911 ever produced. The car was manufactured as a direct result of Porsche’s racing (RennSport) programme. Porsche stripped most of the weight out of the existing 911 by using thinner metal for body panels, thinner glass and removing sound proofing. Performance was also enhanced with larger rear wheel arches housing 7” wheels, a ‘ducktail’ rear spoiler, larger brakes and a larger fuel injected 2,687cc engine producing 210bhp. FIA Group 4 regulations for homologation required that at least 500 examples had to be produced to exacting lightweight competition specification for road use. Porsche eventually produced 1,580 RS examples made up of cars built to both ‘Touring’ specification, offering basic comfort trim and upholstery, and ‘Lightweight’ specification. Only 55 in total were transformed to full RSR racing guise, and they went on to dominate the 1973 European GT Championship with outright wins at the Daytona 24-hours and Targa Florio. Hence, the 911 RS legend was born. Since then its unique profile and ducktail have become iconic in the world of classic cars. Chassis number 9113600235 was built to Touring specification and is a rare and highly sought after “early 500” true homologation car. The vehicle is built in the thinner metal and is as close as you will get to an actual lightweight without sacrificing the comfort of the touring interior. The car was delivered new in Germany in December 1972 and, according to factory records, detailed in the Carrera RS book by Dr. Gruber and Dr. Konradsheim, was delivered with electrically heated & tinted rear window (M102), limited-slip differential (M220), head rest left and right (M258), sport seats, Recaro (M409), shoulder lap belts, auto-retractable (M549).

The vehicle spent its life in Germany until it was imported into Denmark in 1988 by a recognized Porsche specialist as his private purchase. #235 then became subject to a three year full restoration with the purpose of preparing the car for long-term ownership. And so he did. The Porsche specialist entered the car in multiple events in Germany, Austria, UK, Sweden and Spain. His work stood the test of time, and just to mention one result the car and driver won the 2004 Porsche Parade handling competition at the Catalunya F1 circuit, Barcelona, Spain amongst 350 participating cars. After 26 years in his ownership #235 was passed on to the current owner. The car has been well maintained and runs very well as a result. A skilled RS-specialist (with 16 full RS restorations and a high number of RS inspections in the books) concludes that #235 is among the best kept chassis he has come across. As a gesture to its rarity, and underlining how this car is built to be used and enjoyed, the car runs a 2.7 magnesium block, type 911/81, while the rare original and unused RS-block (type 911/83 - #6630259) is spared and follows the car. Several valuable and sought after collectibles come with the car including an original tool set, the Carrera RS book by Dr. Thomas Gruber and Dr. Georg Konradsheim, the original Porsche magazine” Christopherus” issue no. 119 from November 1972 (with the first article about the RS introduction) and the original 1972 Porsche Carrera RS sales brochure as well as other magazines from the time of launch. Silverstone Auctions can report that this RS drives as it should and represents a rare opportunity to purchase an iconic 911 - in an even rarer early 500 edition - ready to use and enjoy.

This wonderfully presented 911 Porsche began its life in 1972 as a left-hand drive 911E, according to the chassis plate. However, having undergone a complete rebuild, it now looks similar to a 911T with the hint of a rally car.
The engine, which is now a 2.2 from a 911T, has recently been replaced and is very strong and coupled to a positive gearbox with excellent synchromesh. This bright red 911 sports some nice replica Minilites, an RS front spoiler and some big spotlights to complete the package.
The car benefitted from new floor pans, front pan, dash top and interior trim including door cards and a new carpet and was fully painted from a bare metal shell in Guards Red.
To sum up, this attractive Porsche is a good fun, entry-level contender into the 911 scene and offered today at ‘No Reserve’ may represent excellent value.

1976 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 3.0 TARGA
Built for just two years between 1976 and 1977, and filling a gap between the basic 911 and the 930 Turbo, the Carrera 3 occupies a special place in 911 history. Its 3 litre, horizontally opposed, air cooled engine with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection produced 200bhp at 6,000 rpm and 188lb/ft of torque, and was basically the 2994cc engine from the 930 Turbo without the forced air induction. Mated with either a 4 or 5-speed version of Porsche’s excellent 915 manual gearbox these were quick cars. Production numbers were relatively small during this two year period with just over three and a half thousand rolling off the line, of which 1,123 were Targas. We believe of these, only 181 were right-hand drive and destined for the UK and, as there are probably less than half of those around now, these Targas are rare cars. Most manufacturers struggle with torsional rigidity when trying to convert their coupés into convertibles (the other way around is often easier), and Porsche were no exception in the early sixties when trying to let the breeze into their new 901 (later 911). The solution was to build the car with a roll hoop as part of the chassis and when this was streamlined and cosmetically enhanced it worked well, and the result was an attractive “half-convertible” that was stiff and handled predictably. At a marketing meeting to decide a name for this new concept, Cologne dealer Walter Franz threw “Targa” into the hat conjuring up images of their success with an open-top car in the hard-fought Targa Florio under a glorious Sicilian Sun. Whilst considering this possibility, someone pointed out to Harald Wagner, the marketing director that “targa” was Italian for “shield” and signified

strength and safety, which obviously appealed to the Teutonic sense of responsibility, and so the name was adopted and is still in use today. This particular 3.0 Carrera Targa is one of the original RHD, UK examples and was purchased by our current vendor from Autofarm in Oxfordshire around 18 years ago, and at the time of purchase, was in the sort of condition that you would expect from an Autofarm retailed car. The car had a number of owners prior to their purchase, but fortunately a lot of the car’s early history was still with the vehicle and they were able to provide our vendor with this, and it will be present as part of the sale. The current odometer reading is 75,500 miles, and amazingly the car has only covered some 2,000 miles in the last 18 years. During this period it’s been kept in a dry garage, all the fluids kept fresh, occasionally started and run up to temperature and used for local trips. This Carrera 3.0 is finished in the lovely period colour of Ice Green Metallic with a Black leather interior. Described as being in nice original condition throughout but would inevitably be improved with a bit of love and attention. The “Carrera Cup” wheels appear unblemished. It drives quite well with no obvious problems but would naturally benefit from being regularly used. The MoT expires next May. These cars were only made in limited numbers and are becoming scarce and collectable, and this cool, Ice Green example with its relatively low mileage (less than 2,000 a year) and lovely original condition makes a lot of sense.

1974 PORSCHE 911 2.7 MFI
We are very fortunate in this country in having a number of dedicated and enthusiastic specialists who spend their lives working on, and restoring older Porsches. However the name “Autofarm” has almost become the first thing that springs to mind when someone is considering how to deal with anything relating to an early Porsche. For over 40 years, this Weston-on-the-Green based company have quietly been building a reputation for their deep knowledge of the Marque and their legendary attention to detail. The company was formed in 1973, which co-incidentally was the effective year of manufacture of, possibly, the most iconic Porsche of all time, the original 3.0 RS. With only 109 ever made and not many of those in road-going spec, the ‘74 3.0 RS has become really sought after and very high prices now render them unattainable for most people, but their perceived value has nothing to do with their ability to out perform the financial markets. Very simply the 3.0 RS is just “the business” in terms of dynamics and driver feed back and anyone who has driven a well sorted 3.0 RS, quickly, across country will know that, for a short time, as a driver they have been “somewhere special” and may never be able to return there. This is not an Advertorial for Autofarm or the 3.0 RS, but simply to help put into context, the RS Recreation we are presenting here. This wonderful Porsche is a 2.7 MFI manufactured in 1973, first registered in 1974 and still retaining its original engine. It has had nine previous owners and was purchased by the present owner from Autofarm following the conversion/recreation they carried out between 1992/95. Being a ‘74 MFI with the 911/83 engine, albeit a 2.7 it was the perfect basis for the recreation of an RS. Autofarm’s

intention was to create a 3.0 RS replica that was correct in every detail and not just a cosmetic copy, so the body was stripped and received new sills, wings, roof, front tank supports and a half cage before having a full engine out re-spray.

There is a comprehensive History File, containing photos of the conversion, quotes, invoices, service history and a number of MoTs. The car now looks fabulous in gleaming white with gold wheels and the Carrera decals on the side in white and gold all surrounding a workmanlike and purposeful black interior. This is a very usable classic 911, and as an original is probably beyond reach, this very detailed recreation offers the performance, handling and general dynamics at a fraction of the cost, and is now ready for its next lucky owner to cherish and enjoy.

By the late sixties, both Volkswagen and Porsche were in need of new models; Porsche was looking for a replacement for their entry level 912, and Volkswagen wanted a new range topping coupé to replace the ageing Karmann Ghia. The Porsche 914 or VW-Porsche 914 was the result of this joint venture and was a mid-engined, Targatopped, rear wheel drive, two seat roadster designed, manufactured and marketed by both companies from 1969 to 1976. Over the years, engine configurations and sizes varied, but in later years the car was powered by a 1971cc fuel-injected, flat-four producing around 100bhp. The car we are offering here today is a left-hand drive, 2.0 ltr. Targa and was initially registered in California to Park Porsche of Manchester Boulevard, Buena Park, California in 1974. The original Bill of Sale (with the car) indicates that a number of options appear to have been “No Charge”, (Hard Top, Fuel Injection and a Roll Bar) but others were chargeable and they include the Appearance Group (cosmetic I guess), Chrome Bumpers, Tinted Glass and a whopping (in ‘74) $380 for Alloy Wheels. This 914 has had five owners to date, two in the US, two in Sweden and our current vendor in Denmark. In 2008, work was started, on what was to turn out to be, a six-year restoration completed in 2014.

Taken back to bare metal, the body was professionally painted in its original colour of Bahia Red (L30E) and the engine was completely rebuilt using a new block (bored to 2.1ltr), topped with performance cams and Dellorto 45s. The suspension was rebuilt with Bilsteins, the front brakes were upgraded and the whole system restored. During the re-assembly process all bolts, screws and nuts were in stainless steel. The whole project was photographed, and there are dozens of photos in the file, some taken from three or four inches away, which you don’t do unless you are really proud of your work. A GT engine lid and a set of five-bolt Fuchs completes the package and the car was recently serviced and tuned by a specialist.

I don’t remember these 914s appearing very exciting in period, and they certainly never enjoyed the dramatic -poster on the bedroom wall -desirability of the 911, however the passage of 40 years has changed that somewhat, and they now have a lovely seventies appeal particularly in this amazing condition.

1989 PORSCHE 911 SPEEDSTER 3.2 TURBO BODY
Inspired by the iconic 1950’s Porsche 356 Speedster’s unique low line look, Porsche produced the 911 3.2 Carrera Speedster in 1989 only, with just 2,104 made worldwide, of which only a few were right hand drive UK cars. Offered in narrow or turbo bodied form, the Speedster was a sleek, low swept model with a distinctive low raked windscreen and ‘speed humps’ behind both driver and passenger. Considered to be a very attractive design by the cognoscenti of the day, it featured the popular, powerful and reliable 3.2 Carrera engine producing 231 bhp, a 0-60mph time of 5.4 seconds and a top speed of over 150mph.

Contained within the original leather book pack are the driver’s manual, 911 Speedster supplementary driver’s manual and the service book which now shows 19 service stamps, the last of which was carried out on 4th December ‘14 by Porsche Centre MidSussex. At this time, the mileage recorded was 55,193 miles, with only 75 miles being covered since. This Speedster comes complete with its space-saver spare wheel (which has never been used), an electric tyre inflator, tool roll and a custom-made tonneau cover by JSM Trimmings, Lewes.
Supplied new on 1st September 1989 by Merlin Porsche Chesterfield, this original UK right-hand drive, Turbo-bodied Speedster looks stunning in Black with a Black leather interior. Purchased by our vendor in 1998 from Rivervale (now Mid-Sussex Porsche), the car has since been driven on many an enjoyable trip to Europe, including weekends at the Le Mans Classic, Nurburgring Oldtimer Grand Prix and even the Mille Miglia. During our vendor’s tenure, many concours events have been entered & won - testament to the amount of pampering this car has enjoyed throughout its life.
Thoroughly cherished over the past 17 years of ownership by our vendor, himself a Porsche Club GB member, this Speedster is one of only 64 UK-specification cars, presenting the new owner with the chance to own a rare Porsche indeed. With an odometer reading of only 55,268 miles and an MoT certificate until 30th July ‘16, this car would not look out of place in any Porsche collection today.

1989 PORSCHE 911 3.2 SUPER SPORTS CABRIOLET
The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the original 911 that first appeared in 1963, before being replaced by the 964 series in 1990. These final cars were the most flexible and usable of Butzi Porsche’s original design. The all-alloy flat-6 engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971 received a final stretch to 3,164 cc, giving a torquey 231hp, enough to propel the lithe and slippery icon to over 150mph, with 0-60mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. Cars built from September 1986 onward received the more user-friendly G50 gearbox, but all 3.2 Carreras feature galvanized bodies which together with Porsche’s legendary build quality ensures that these classics are longlasting. The car we present to you here has the distinction of being a Super Sports, a factory option that in 1989 weighed in at around £10,000 more than a standard 3.2 911. The Super Sports offered all the external styling cues of a 911 Turbo without the demanding handling traits of its overpowered sibling. Porsche AG’s records of official Super Sports production is sketchy, but according to a well-researched article in the Porsche Post 2010 (August) only eighteen right-hand drive Super Sports cabriolets were made between 1987 and 1989. This 1989 Super Sports cabriolet offers the new owner the opportunity, not only to own a car that is so rare it makes a Ferrari blush, but has the perfect ‘drivers mileage’ of 48,641 miles. The history file contains the original handbooks and a letter of origin from Porsche Cars Great Britain confirming the option codes, including M491 (the all important

Under the current vendor’s ownership, the car has benefited from regular oil changes and mini-services with receipts on file. Presented today in largely original condition, with later additions including an alarm,(currently disconnected) and a CD player. The black paintwork gleams, and there are one or two stone chips at the front, inevitable in a car that’s 26 years old and easily remedied. The black velour carpeting is in great condition and the Silk Grey leather seats show subtle but contemporary patina. The Fuchs wheels are in great order, and the “Whale Tail” shows good colour without the fading normally seen. The unmarked electric hood works perfectly and a tonneau cover, which was being cleaned at the time of photography, comes with the car. As an added bonus, the vendor has generously included the private registration 911 JXE in the sale. At the time of consignment the vendor stated that the car languished in his garage, regularly started, run up to temperature and driven short distances, but was rarely enjoyed as designed, vying for attention between its stablemates and the vendor’s business commitments. A great opportunity to own a fabulous, head-turning, eighties design icon in a rare colour scheme and one of only a handful of its type in the UK.

1972 PORSCHE 911E 2.4
Porsche produced the 911E from 1969 until 1973, and it was designed to be the more comfortable and drivable of the 911 range fitting in between the 911T (Touring) and the 911S (Super). The designation ‘E’ came from the German for injection: “Einspritzung” and this referred to the pioneering mechanical fuel injection system (MFI) used on the 911E and the 911S and developed jointly between Bosch and Porsche. The benefits were more power and better driveability with a cleaner running engine. Porsche also conceded that a few more comfort features would be welcomed and the braking system was also improved to deal with the improved performance.

Porsche introduced the 356A at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 1955 which thoroughly updated their 356 line-up of Coupés, Cabriolets and Speedsters. Major changes were the 1600 cc engine, curved screen and revised suspension. Ruetter remained the coachbuilder. Tyre technology was improving which better suited suspension changes and higher fuel octanes allowed better performance. From the outside, the 356A was only slightly different with wider tyres, a rubber strip below the doors and the curved screen marking the changes. The interior now boasted a flat-face dashboard, locking glove box and a radio. Other modern appointments included a headlight flasher, automatic interior lighting and self-cancelling indicators.

The 997 became the most commercially successful 911 to date, having sold 100,000 units of the first generation alone between its introduction in 2005 and July 2007. It has also received lots of positive reviews from the worldwide motoring press, with even the Porschebaiting Jeremy Clarkson noting that the 997 will “make love to your fingertips and stir your soul.” For over fifty years the Porsche 911 was the only mainstream sports car available, that would reliably start on cold mornings, thunder down the motorway, corner with confidence and had enough room in the back for shopping or children on the way to school. It became the professional’s sports car of choice, without the histrionics of Italian exotica or the occasional frustrations of British sports cars. The 997 C4S was, and still is, widely regarded as the greatest nonturbo version of the 911 with the four wheel drive system providing the grip that ensured stable handling and predictable cornering, eminently suitable for our wet British roads. The C4S differed from its sibling with an increased engine capacity to 3.8 litres, lowered suspension with PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), in simple terms dynamically adjustable dampers, 19inch wheels and an uprated braking system from the 911 Turbo. The larger wheels suited the car well and the sports exhaust made the 997 C4S a bit of a growler, prowling through town, sheathed in flawless, understated metal with Zero to Sixty being achieved in comfort and safety in a mere 4.5 seconds.

To some, the 997 was aesthetically muted and lacked a little of the supercar drama that they sought. The factory fitted Aero Kit had been a popular choice on its predecessor the 996 and a similar kit was available for the 997 and is fitted here. Some would argue that flawless beauty is often enhanced by understated styling details, and the Aero Kit enhances the 997’s sleek lines without vulgarity. The car we have on offer today, ticks every available box for the driving enthusiast who requires a performance car that can be used daily. The factory fitted Aero Kit headlines the option list that includes 19inch Carrera wheels, automatically dimming interior and rain sensors.

The car has covered a mere 37,000 miles and comes complete with a number of substantial service bills and a valid MoT until September 2016.

2003 PORSCHE 911 (996) GT3 RS
Porsche introduced the Porsche 911 GT3 RS in 2003 as an even more track-focused version of the 996 GT3. The “RS” moniker, characteristic lightweight blue or red wheels and “GT3 RS” side stickers link the 996 GT3 RS to historically important Porsches such as the Carrera 2.7 RS of the early 1970s. The RS is lighter than its GT3 sibling, thanks to the use of a polycarbonate rear window and a carbon fibre bonnet and rear wing.
Along with the standard specification, some carefully selected modifications have been carried out to enhance the driving experience. These include uprated Bilstein suspension and upgraded rose jointed triple rear links, Cargraphic exhaust, Alcon front discs and a Fabspeed custom carbon air intake. This example has been used and cherished by a true Porsche enthusiast and has been maintained regardless of cost.
The 996 GT3 RS has a slightly different engine specification to the 996 GT3, with the cylinder heads having reshaped intake and exhaust ports to comply with race homologation regulations. The wheel carriers are totally redesigned to maximize the improved dynamic camber control, the suspension top mounts can be turned 120 degrees to a “Cup Car” position and both front and rear control arms are adjustable.
Showing 26,889 miles, the car is presented with a range of invoices detailing work carried out on the vehicle and a service book showing the following stamps:
During the 996 GT3 RS production run from 2003 to 2005, Porsche built only 140 right-hand drive cars and 113 of those were officially imported into to the UK.

1986 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 3.2 COUPÉ SE
The 911 Carrera 3.2 made its debut at the Frankfurt motor show in September 1983, reviving the ‘Carrera’ name for the first time since 1977. Although it remained an air-cooled ‘flat-six’, the ‘3.2’ engine was 80% new and incorporated an effective cam chain tensioner and associated lubrication system that at last addressed a perennial 911 shortcoming. This enlarged and extensively revised new engine produced 231bhp, 27 up on its predecessor, endowing the Carrera with excellent performance. 0-60 in 5.3, 0-100 in 13.6 seconds and a top speed of 152mph were figures not too far away from the legendary 1974 Turbo. It’s in Porsche’s DNA to refine their models over production periods focusing on factors such as functionality, performance and design and so, naturally, during the 6 year production period of the 3.2 Carrera, many options and iterations were available for customers when ordering their new 911. Ordered and registered in March 1986, this Carrera SE (Sports Equipment) in Guards Red with a ‘colour to sample’ leather interior (Linen with red piping) is a perfect reflection on the options available to customers back in the eighties to refine their Porsche to suit the exclusiveness of owning a Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2. The current vendor has meticulously researched and clarified exactly the options ordered on this car.

line, this car was taken to the Exclusive Department for modifications to replace the ‘standard equipment with Sport Equipment, Turbo front and rear spoilers and running gear’. Porsche go on to state that ‘As Exclusive options are not recorded in the usual way, owing to their exclusivity, no option M491 (commonly known as ‘Supersport’) appears on the vehicle’s VIN sticker’. All of this results in a Porsche factory verified ‘Turbo Look’ 911 currently showing around 80,700 miles, that’s certainly an excellent example of the model. Owned by the current vendor since 2002, all recent service history is present here including detailed information on parts replaced and maintained (the exhaust, clutch, starter, ball joints for example) confirming the attention the car has received and verifying the 80,000 recorded miles. On his purchase in 2002, the mileage indicated was 59,113 which our vendor believes to be genuine but cannot confirm. Competitively priced and ready to go, this is a superb example and a true testament to Porsche’s reputation for building quality performance cars with everyday usability. We have a large amount of information on the provenance and history (Factory option codes, Certificate of Authenticity, annual mileages since 2002, MoTs from then and one from 1999, and some period literature) of this very special and unusual Porsche. There is too much to list here, but if this wonderful car interests you please get in touch and we can let you have all the relevant information.

With the 928, Porsche created a serious long distance grand touring car that was also at home on twisting B-roads thanks to super direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution and a clever Weissach rear axle that kept the car firmly planted. Porsche continuously developed the 928 throughout its production life, culminating with the launch of the S4 in 1987, which differed slightly from the earlier Series cars with its smoothed off front and rear bumpers, larger rear spoiler, more interior equipment and a 5-litre version of the V8 engine developing 330 bhp.

www.s i l versto nea ucti o ns.c om
First launched at the 1973 Paris Auto Show, with production commencing in 1975, the Porsche 911 ‘930’ Turbo was a genuine Supercar that came to define both the 1970s and 80s and was one of the fastest production cars available at that time. The basic engine underpinnings came from the Carrera 2.7RS with its capacity increased to 3.0 Litres and, of course, turbocharged with technology gleaned from Porsche’s 917/30 Can-Am programme. The bodywork came in for special treatment resulting in one of the most aggressive looking Porsches ever made with its wide arches and impressive rear “whale-tail” and the brakes were borrowed directly from the Porsche 917 race car. At the end of production in 1989, Porsche decided to mark the occasion by creating a very special Limited Edition 930 - the ultimate Turbo. A small number of the last assembly batch of standard 3.3 litre cars were taken off the line and sent to the ‘Exclusive’ team at Zuffenhausen to be finished by hand. With just 53 of these cars produced, one for each UK dealership in 1989, a host of bespoke options were offered including colour-coded wheels, top tinted windscreen, a choice of special colours for interior & exterior, rear quarter air intake ducts, electric sunroof, heated multiadjust electric seats, and gold ‘Turbo’ lettering stitched behind the seats to name but a few. Each car also featured a Gold Plaque on the centre console and a Gold gear knob top as recognition of the LE’s place in Porsche 911 history.

Anyone who followed the “World Championship of Makes” (essentially an international championship for long distance Sports Car racing), will remember their surprise at the shape of the new 935 when it first appeared at Mugello in March 1976. Subsequently these ‘Flachbau’ or ‘Flatnose’ 935s and 936s were to prove very competitive in the hands of drivers such as Ickx, Mass and Stommelen and during the next two seasons managed four victories in eight World Championship races and a triumph at Le Mans in each year. However, Porsche began to worry that all these victories by the works Flatnose cars might alienate the vast number of private clients who were investing their own money in conventionally shaped competition 911s, and decided to restrict their efforts for 1978 to an entry at Le Mans. The distinctive look of the ‘Flachbau’ (literally translated as Low Build) obviously retained its appeal in the minds of their road car customers and from 1985 until early 1989, UK Porsche 930 buyers could specify their car in this style to special order. This 1985 Porsche 930 SE Flatnose was first registered on 11th November 1985 by Porsche GB Ltd on the famous ‘911 HUL’ number plate.

The interesting Carrera 3.0 is rightly regarded as somewhat of a special and rare model amongst the impact-bumper era, 911 model range. It was introduced in September 1975 for the 1976 model year and production only ran until 1977. Following on after the MFI-engined Carrera 2.7, the 3.0 Carrera heralded the adoption of the newly developed Bosch K-Jetronic CIS fuel injection engine. This torque-rich, smooth and free-revving 3.0-litre engine, with a distinctive ‘cam’ effect from 4,000rpm, produced 200 bhp and was effectively a naturally aspirated version of the 930 Turbo’s drivetrain (using the same die-cast aluminium crankcase and gearbox housing for durability). Although having slightly less power than the outgoing Carrera 2.7, it had considerably more torque (188 lb/ft at 4200 rpm) and with its new fuel injection system was one of the earliest Porsches to return economical fuel consumption figures without a significant performance loss. The Carrera 3.0 was able to accelerate from 0-60 mph and 0-100 mph in almost identical times to the original 2.7 RS and 2.7 Carrera. This respectable performance was aided further by the relatively light weight (1093 kg) of the 3.0 Carrera compared to its successors. It is almost 6% lighter than the SC (1160kg), almost 10% lighter than the 3.2 (1210kg) and surprisingly, also weighs less than the later (19871989) stripped-down Carrera 3.2 Club Sport (1170kg). During its short two-year life span, only 3,687 cars were built - a tiny amount compared to nearly 58,000 911 SCs and 76,500 3.2 Carreras produced. Of these, 2,564 were Coupés and 1,123 were Targas with only around 1,064 Coupés being manufactured in right-hand drive. Very few RHD cars reached the UK, and with just a two year production run, only 121 Carrera 3.0 Coupés (combined ‘Sport’ and ‘Comfort’ versions) are verified by their chassis numbers with the Porsche Club GB. The 3.0 Carrera model was highly rated by Porsche gurus Michael Cotton, Lindsey Porter and Peter Morgan, and was the road car of choice of legendary British Rally champion Roger (Albert) Clark.

Registration: ROP 290R Chassis Number: 9117600544 Engine Number: 6679096 Estimate (£): 45,000 - 50,000
The car offered here is a 1977 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 Coupé in distinctive Copper Bronze Metallic, contrasting nicely with the Tan leather trim and Porsche Fabric seats. It’s a UK-supplied, 5-speed, matching numbers car, with 10 previous owners (the first owner is believed to be the founder of Topps Tiles), and was specified with electric windows and sunroof, cruise-control and AC (which was not working at the time of consignment). Its current owner has enjoyed his charismatic bronze Porsche since 1994, and it has been carefully re-commissioned over the last few years after being laid up for a period of time. The car has covered 111,000 miles at this point, but has always been well maintained and has only done approximately 2,500 miles since receiving some attention to the engine and gearbox from those knowledgeable specialists at Autofarm. Additional mechanical work was recently carried out by Chris Turner Porsche of Willesden, including a full re-build of the injection system and the fitting of new heat exchangers, a new rear silencer, new rear oil cooler and a new fuel tank. The brake system was also fully refurbished and a new clutch and release bearing have been fitted. On top of all the mechanical work, the car has received a full baremetal respray with both kidney bowls being replaced and is presented with fully refurbished alloy wheels and all new tyres and wheel bolts. The large history file contains many receipts for servicing and mechanical work done over the years, plus all MoTs since 1977 which helps to verify the mileage. The car starts and drives very well, showing good pressures and temperatures with no evidence of oil leaks. Arguably, a Carrera 3.0 without the ‘Sports’ package (no spoiler and decals etc.) displays a purer 911 silhouette, and this more subtle and understated, late seventies Porsche in gleaming bronze, is a fantastic example of this limited-run model and surely one of the best available.

Anyone who followed the “World Championship of Makes” (essentially an international championship for long distance Sports Car racing), will remember their surprise at the shape of the new 935 when it first appeared at Mugello in March 1976. Subsequently these “Flatnose” 935s and 936s (in Group 6) were to prove very competitive in the hands of Ickx, Mass and Stommelen and during the next two seasons managed four victories in eight World Championship races and a triumph at Le Mans in each year. However, Porsche began to worry that all these victories by the works Flatnose cars might alienate the vast number of private clients who were investing their own money in conventionally shaped competition 911s, and decided to restrict their efforts for 1978 to an entry at Le Mans. The distinctive look of the “Flachbau” (literally translated as Low Build) obviously retained its appeal in the minds of their road car customers and from 1981 until early 1989 Porsche 930 buyers could specify their car in this style to special order. The 911 here is a genuine Factory produced Porsche 930SE, built in April 1989 under the ‘Sonderwunchprogramm’ (Special Wishes Programme) and supplied to Roger Clark Porsche in Narborough, Leicestershire in May 1989. The Flachbau cars were essentially normal 930s with the 935-style sloping front end. The body colour is Baltic Blue Metallic and the interior is in Marine Blue leather with Blue and White pinstriped inserts. The Porsche Club of Great Britain has suggested that its late build date in 1989 indicates that it is the last of only 50 RHD UK (C16) specification cars produced. These cars were equipped with an uprated engine of 330bhp (from 300) mated to the G50, 5-speed gearbox, Dual Exit exhaust and an

It also benefits from a limited slip differential, heated front seats and a sunroof. This particular car was modified even further by a previous owner who entrusted the car to the legendary Ruf Automobile GmbH. in Pfaffenhausen who managed to find an additional one hundred and twenty horses hiding in there, resulting in an output of an attention focusing, 450bhp. Sadly, Ruf were affected by some damaging floods at a later date destroying a lot of their paper records, so it cannot be confirmed when the conversion was carried out, however after a couple of minutes behind the wheel of this stunning Porsche, the date of conversion may seem a touch academic. In its current ownership since 2006, this car has covered a believed genuine 32,500 miles, has been maintained regardless of mileage and usage, has been fitted with a new turbocharger, injectors, and brakes etc, and has been serviced annually. There is a full handbook/service book package with over 20 service stamps, two sets of keys and a Category 1 alarm system. Personally, I can’t look at the iconic shape of this eighties Porsche without an image coming to mind of Jacky Ickx in the Martini Racing 936, howling down the Mulsanne Straight in the early dawn of a Sunday morning in June 1976, and I am obviously not alone, as these cars are becoming very rare and sought after. We believe that this is the last of 50 RHD, Flatnose 930s manufactured and worth serious consideration.

1979 PORSCHE 911SC COUPÉ
The 1978 Porsche 911SC defiantly disproved those who’d written off the air-cooled rear-engine concept. With the SC, the Porsche 911 could finally claim tractability as a virtue. In fact, Road & Track likened it to “a big V-8 powered Detroit car. There’s lots of torque, so constant downshifting isn’t necessary even in slow traffic. No Porsche owner is going to let the revs fall to 1000 rpm in 5th gear and then attempt to accelerate. But to prove a point, we did this with the SC and the engine accepted the treatment with never a judder of protest...just roll your foot off the clutch pedal and glide away.” In all, the SC was widely judged the most forgiving 911 yet, though the “wide tyres, have some demerits in wet weather”, warned Autocar. “ It suffered occasionally from front end aquaplaning under braking on water covered roads, and understeer is also far more noticeable on wet surfaces. In these...conditions the tail can sometimes be provoked out of line with the throttle, and understeer can also be killed by the traditional remedy of easing back on the throttle, being prepared to

Such intricacies of handling make the Porsche very much a driver’s car; experience with it constantly teaches new skills.” The current vendor of this particular car, has cherished it for the last 10 years and has always been willing to spend money on it whenever necessary,with new heat exchangers and shock absorbers being the most recent items. However more importantly, the engine was fully rebuilt by Walter Jansens at Evolutione Motors the Porsche specialists in Belgium when showing 113,000 miles. The car had a full respray 8 years ago and had the B pillars done at the same time to enhance its appearance.

The car is finished in a lovely Light Blue Metallic with matching blue Pascha interior.

1986 PORSCHE 911 3.2 MODIFIED TO 2.7 RS SPECIFICATION
The 1970s represented a truly ‘rich vein’ of motorsport success for Porsche, and regulation changes to ‘level the playing field’ only tested their resolve and ingenuity. The Porsche 917 was rendered obsolete by late 1972, with rule changes to the World Sportscar Championship now geared for “Prototypes”. Without sufficient time to respond and complete a build programme, Porsche switched their attention to the European GT Championship, developing still further the successful 2.7 RS. If ever there was justice, it prevailed in early 1973 when a Porsche 2.8 RSR, virtually ‘out of the box’, won the 24hrs of Daytona in a field littered with Prototypes. Unsurprisingly, it totally dominated European GTs, which considering its 911 underpinnings is a remarkable achievement. The 911 RSR derivatives would remain a ‘nemesis’ to manufacturers for a decade. Porsche entries won all of the ‘Blue Riband’ events - Le Mans, Daytona, Sebring, etc. with regularity. The defining 911 of its era, the Carrera 2.7 RS was created to comply with homologation requirements for group 4 racing and all 500 examples of the initial production run were sold within a week of the car’s international debut at the 1972 Paris Show. As a design, it was an object lesson in economy of purpose and, with its appropriately fat tyres and duck-tail spoiler it made later models look fussy and clumsy. It was the first 911 to bear the RS moniker and, for many, it continues to epitomise the essence of the 911.

Subsequent RS touches were added under current ownership including removing the rear seats and replacing with custom carpets, and fitting an RS driver’s side mirror. The car also boasts a custom made roll-cage by Nur Motorsport, Cobra seats with custom red stitching, road legal OMP harnesses, a Superlegerra steering wheel and an Autofarm bonnet. One of the industry’s leading specialists, Pro 9 Porsche is currently replacing the ‘duck tail’ spoiler and front and rear bumpers with period correct RS parts, identical to the ones in the photographs. The period correct registration number FRB 353L beautifully compliments the RS ‘look’ and the wealth of servicing and receipts show how well maintained this car has been. Official Porsche main dealer Dick Lovett of Bristol has maintained the car for the past two years, with recent service bills, including a new fuel tank, of over £1,800.

2002 PORSCHE 911 (996) TURBO
The 911 (996) Turbo offers genuine supercar performance in a compact and practical package. The turbocharged version of the 996 appeared in 2000, three years after the normally aspirated 996 had replaced the much loved 993 and was as radical a departure from the 993 Turbo as its, opinion dividing, sibling had been. Arriving with four-wheel drive as standard, a water-cooled engine, a smooth new body-shell and a radically updated cabin, the new 996 Turbo was a thoroughly sophisticated, all-weather, competent supercar and though it went out of production in 2005, in real terms it’s still as quick as anything on the road. Compared with the 993 model, the 996 represented a virtual redesign and its looks, initially did not receive universal acclaim. Cosmetically, it moved things on for Porsche with more flowing body lines, the windscreen raked right back, the cabin roomier and the facia finally looked like it had actually been designed, as opposed to fitting the controls and instruments where there happened to be a bit of space. The structure managed to be 45% stiffer yet lighter than the older model, and with the early 911 handling quirks being further ironed out, the 996 Turbo was as sure-footed as any 190 mph / 4.1 secs to 60 mph car in its class. Water cooling, a first for Porsche, allowed an engine redesign that included four valves per cylinder, enabling higher power outputs to be achieved with much better fuel economy. Although the Turbo is watercooled it’s not the same engine that’s in the regular 996s. The 3.6 litre Mezger engine in the Turbo, can trace its ancestry back to the old aircooled units and is directly related, not only to the 996 GT3, but also the GT1 racer (3.2 litres and 600bhp!). This engine has proved virtually

bulletproof and the standard 420bhp can be comfortably extended to 500bhp with confidence. The 2002 model, sometimes known as the Mk.2, also saw body revisions which increased stiffness, improving handling and crash safety. Mid-range punch is the 996 Turbo’s party trick and while 420bhp might not be a headline power figure today, it still feels seriously rapid with instant thrust that ensures you are pressed against the back of the seat and a flow of power that feels almost linear. The chassis and brakes are a perfect match for the engine’s performance, whilst the ride is taut but retains enough suppleness for long journeys to remain comfortable. With four-wheel drive and the engine slung out the back, both grip and traction are incredibly strong promoting a feeling of confidence that can border on invincibility. The car presented here is a 2002 Mk.2 996 Turbo, accompanied by a full Porsche service history (most recently in August 2015), having only ever had two owners and covered a conservative 72,250 miles. In a delightful shade of Lapis Blue Metallic with Graphite Grey Leather, it is a standard UK RHD car with the semi-automatic Tiptronic gearbox, allowing it to be both a focused supercar and a consummate mile covering GT. It was highly specified from new and appears in very good condition today. The car has been owned by the vendor for the last ten years, and has always been cared for, garaged and fastidiously maintained. This ballistic blue Turbo, surely represents an attractive and viable route into Porsche supercar ownership.

Despite only being in production for a couple of years(1976-77) the 911 “Carrera3” is an historically important model, combining two significant elements from the long 911 timeline. It was the latest incarnation of the Carrera name, originally applied to the 911 with the legendary RS in 1972, and the Carrera 3.0’s engine was essentially the same as its sibling the 930 Turbo, without the forced air induction. Following on after the MFI engined Carrera 2.7, the 3.0 Carrera pioneered the adoption of the recently developed Bosch K-Jetronic CIS fuel injection engine. This torquey, smooth and free-revving 3.0-litre engine, produced 200 bhp, and was effectively a naturally aspirated version of the 930 Turbo’s powerplant (using the same die-cast aluminium crankcase and gearbox housing for durability). Although having slightly less power than the outgoing Carrera 2.7, it had considerably more torque (188 lb/ft at 4200 rpm) and with its new fuel injection was one of the earliest Porsches to return reasonable fuel consumption figures without a significant performance loss. The Carrera 3.0 was able to accelerate from 0-60 mph and 0-100 mph in almost identical times to the original 2.7 RS and 2.7 Carrera. This respectable performance was aided further by the relatively light weight (1093 kg) of the 3.0 Carrera compared to its successors. It is almost 6% lighter than the SC (1,160kg), almost 10% lighter than the 3.2 (1,210kg) and surprisingly, also weighs less than the later (19871989) stripped-down Carrera 3.2 Club Sport (1,170kg).In the 27 month production period, 3,687 Carrera 3.0s found enthusiastic buyers and of these 2,564 were coupés with only a few hundred in right-hand drive.

The excellent interior is finished in Black Leatherette with Pinstripes, the black-centred Fuchs alloys are in very good condition, the soft Metallic Green paintwork gleams and overall the car looks every inch the Classic Carrera. There was a period when the values of these Carreras were in the doldrums, and opportunistic buyers at the time frequently could not afford to maintain them, and those cars were sadly lost. The few cars that remain, have been maintained from new by caring owners, and their value as a very quick, classic 70’s Porsche is now appreciated, and consequently they are becoming increasingly sought after.

Built in the last year of 944 production, there can’t be many 944 Cabriolets with mileage as low as this. The car positively shouts “Buy me” with its gleaming Silver paintwork, unmarked Dark Blue interior and hood, and its cared-for alloys. Inevitably, as the prices of good 911s creep ever higher, 944s, 928s, and 968’s will surely follow, so now may be as good a time as any to join the party.
The S2 had the same rounded nose and a rear valance found on the 944 Turbo model and this was the first example of the use of an integrated front bumper, where the fender and hood profiles would merge smoothly with the bumper, a design feature that has only now seen widespread adoption on production cars from the early nineties. In 1989, Porsche released the 944 S2 Cabriolet, a first for the 944 line that featured a cabriolet body built by the ASC-American Sunroof Company at Weinsberg in Germany, creating a very good looking car with excellent dynamic qualities that was rewarding to drive and was well received by the motoring press. This 18,900 mile, 944 S2 Cabriolet has enjoyed the sunshine with two previous owners who were obviously fastidious and caring, as is evident from the car’s proud stance and immaculate appearance.

The 993 was the final generation of air-cooled 911s, and as such will always have a special place in the affections of Porsche enthusiasts. It is also widely said to be the last of the 911s that were built whilst engineering integrity overruled accounting pressures at Porsche. Twenty years on, it still looks modern - a truly timeless design. The 993 was launched in the autumn of 1994 and was claimed to be 80% new. The bodywork was altogether more curvaceous, with a number of new panels and the overall look was much smoother and more integrated. Importantly, this new style was still every inch a 911 in the traditional manner, with the profiles of the doors and rear quarter windows remaining unchanged from earlier models. The biggest change under the skin was the new multi-link rear suspension, giving greater driver confidence, less road noise and excellent ride quality. Designed to give a level of passive rearwheel steering (the ‘Weissach effect’), thus controlling the way the suspension behaved under cornering, braking and acceleration, it transformed the 911. It was also the first 911 to be equipped with power steering and an advanced ABS system. The 993 uses essentially the same 3.6-litre engine as the 964, mated to a development of the worthy G50 gearbox, but now with six forward gears.

The 911 Turbo, introduced in 1975 and remaining in production until 1989, was sufficiently different from previous versions to earn a new930-model number. These were proper “Supercars”, amongst the fastest production cars available at the time and are now felt by many to be the cars that defined the early eighties. A turbocharged 911 was first seen at the 1973 Paris Auto Show as a pre-production prototype, essentially to gauge reaction and went on sale a couple of years later as the 911(930) Turbo. The basic engine underpinnings came from the Carrera 2.7RS with the capacity increased to 3.0 litres and, of course, turbocharged using the vast amount of recent experience with forced air induction that Porsche had gained from their 917/30 Can-Am programme. Externally distinctive with its “Whale Tail” rear spoiler, wide tyres, bulging wheel arches and macho stance, 930s were surprisingly civilised with air conditioning, electric windows, a leather interior, tinted glass, headlamp washers and Bilstein shock absorbers as standard. After two years, the engine was enlarged from 3.0 litres to 3.3 and power outputs increased over time from 260 to 330bhp. Turbo-lag was an ever present problem with the early cars, and with 330 willing horses arriving mostly at the same time, together with the 911’s characteristic handling, a scenic drive could quickly turn into a drive through the scenery, however this problem was ironed out as the cars were developed further over the years.

LOT 256
Registration: YBJ 407X Chassis Number: WP0ZZZ93ZBS000224 Engine Number: 6710214 Estimate (£): 40,000 - 45,000
This very fine 1981 example is a UK specified and supplied car, in righthand drive and looks stunning in metallic Silver. The car was subject to a full bare-metal restoration in 2010 and painted in its correct factory colour along with a retrim in Dark Blue leather with White inserts and piping on the seats. The dedicated Turbo carpets are in deep blue and are excellent. Photographs and invoices relating to this rebuild are in the car’s history file, as is its full service history with invoices from new, every MoT test certificate neatly bound and a Certificate of Authenticity telling the story of this wonderful car’s life. A stainless steel exhaust was recently fitted and the car is equipped with a sunroof and a remote alarm system. With its “Tea Tray” rear spoiler and “Look at me” presence the 911 Turbo somehow came to represent the unfortunate “Red Braces” excesses of the eighties, but that image has faded over the last few years and the Turbo is now seen correctly as a classic iconic Porsche in an increasingly buoyant market. One for the discerning owner, and not to be missed.

1999 PORSCHE (996) CARRERA 2 MANUAL
The Porsche 996 was first introduced in 1997 and was the first watercooled 911. This pre-facelift 996 is the lightest of all water-cooled 911 variants including the 996 GT3 which weighs 35kg. more. Its 3.4 litre, 300 bhp engine is mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox and this is a two-wheel drive version, widely considered to be the purest 996. In 1998, Car and Driver put the Carrera 2 up against the Ferrari 355 and the Porsche came out on top. Furthermore, it was prized as the EVO Magazine car of the year with “its ability to be approachable and accessible like a sports car, but still with the ability to inspire awe like a supercar... on the road its purity of purpose, poise, finesse and honed athleticism allowed it to dominate a test that included the Ferrari F355 and Elise 135”. This Arctic Silver Carrera with Metropole leather is a genuine C16 UK car, and is completely factory correct including its original 18’’ Turbo Twist alloy wheels with Porsche Crest centre caps, 3 Spoke Leather steering wheel, Hi-Fi Sound System, Comfort seats, Leather headlining and full Leather front and rear seats. It has covered just 43,150 miles since new and its MoT does not expire until October 2016. This car was delivered new to Lancaster Porsche in London on 12 October 1999, and since then has had an extensive service history:

Designed, manufactured and marketed jointly with VW between 1969 and 1976, the Porsche 914 was a mid-engined Targa-topped 2 seater roadster featuring independent suspension, a five-speed gearbox and rear wheel drive. Power came from a VW derived, flat 4 cylinder 2.0 litre engine which gained Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection from the beginning of 1974 onwards. This original 1974 left-hand drive car, was acquired by American Indy car legend and double Indianapolis winner, Arie Luyendyk as a solid base car to restore. He commissioned a full and detailed restoration of the car in order to add it to his established collection of classic cars in the USA, where it resided as a static exhibit for some years. So thorough was this restoration, that when it was spotted by a very knowledgeable German collector he quickly acquired it and re-imported it back to

Germany to add to his collection. Finally, and more recently, the current English owner went all over Europe in a search for the very best 914 he could find, and on discovering this little yellow Porsche he immediately purchased it as ‘best of breed’ and has enjoyed it ever since. Now UK registered, all taxes paid and with a full 12 months MoT, the car comes to the Sale with appropriate documents including the original handbooks and manual, a period sales brochure and an Arizona certificate of title confirming the original US owner as Arie Luyendyk.
Sensibly guided, an original car like this is rare to find in this condition. An excellent opportunity to acquire a model that is now gaining momentum in the collectors market.

Proof of identification will be required in the form of a passport or driver’s licence, together with a recent utility bill showing your current address, before the registration process can be completed. 9.2 The Auctioneer will commence and advance the bidding at levels and in increments he considers appropriate and is entitled to place a bid or series of bids on behalf of the Seller, up to the Reserve on the Lot. 9.3 The Seller may place a Reserve on any Lot when he consigns it to the Auction, and once placed it may not be changed without the written consent of SAL. All Lots will be sold without Reserve unless a Reserve has been agreed by SAL in writing. 9.4 Where a Reserve has been agreed, only SAL at its absolute discretion may bid on behalf of the Seller. 9.5 If no Reserve has been placed on a Lot, SAL shall in no way be held liable should the Lot be purchased for a price below any lowest estimated selling price of the Lot given in any Catalogue. 9.6 SAL may sell a Lot below the Reserve agreed with the Seller, provided that SAL accounts to the Seller for the same Sale Proceeds as the Seller would have received had the Lot been sold at that Reserve. 10.
