WELCOME
Welcome to our spiritual home at Silverstone Circuit for our penultimate auction of the year, The Porsche Sale with Porsche Club GB. We’re huge fans of Porsche at Silverstone Auctions so we were honoured back in early 2015 when Porsche Club GB approached us to host a very special auction, our first ever marque specific sale, and it’s a delight to be back again this year. As a self-confessed Porsche fan, this really is one of the highlights of our auction calendar and I look forward to meeting as many Porsche enthusiasts as possible today at what should be an amazing sale. From a low mileage Boxster, a stunning Carrera GT, an example of every front-engined Porsche ever made, project cars, to some of the best 911s produced and even a Porsche tractor, the catalogue once again features a fantastic mix of cars which are sure to tempt you. The catalogue is a true testament to the quality of cars consigned by the Silverstone Auctions team - representing what we feel to be the very best cars available on the market today. The partnership between Silverstone Auctions and Porsche Club GB has only grown stronger this year and I’d like to thank the team once again for their support and to give a special welcome to all those Club members joining us today. If it’s your first time at one of our sales and if there is a car you’re interested in buying, please do not hesitate to speak to a member of our expert auction team who will be able to help you through every step of the buying process. If you missed the chance to sell a car with us this year we’re now inviting entries into our final auction of the year, the NEC Classic Motor Show Sale, a two-day auction taking place at the UK’s biggest classic car show on the 12th and 13th November. I hope to see you there, but for now enjoy the sale and I hope you are successful in buying the Porsche of your dreams. Happy bidding!

The 928 was launched to a fanfare and surprised many by being named European Car of the Year, an award that traditionally went to worthy but dull family hatchbacks. Critics immediately recognised the advances the 928 had made over the 911, and the car was universally praised as one of the greatest Grand Touring cars of all time. It handled, it was quick, it looked fantastic and it was comfortable. With the 928, Porsche created a serious long-distance Grand Touring car that could also tackle twisting B-roads with ease, thanks to super-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution, and a clever Weissach rear axle that kept the car firmly planted. Many testers found that their nerve ran out long before the 928’s grip. If the 928 attracted any criticism at all, it was that it wasn’t quite quick enough. The original 4.4-litre engine generated 240bhp but, mated to a relatively heavy car, the performance wasn’t in the 911 category, and so Porsche introduced the ‘928 S’ fitted with a 4.7-litre version of the engine generating 310bhp. This began to deliver the car’s potential, achieving 0-60mph times of around seven seconds, however, the real trump card of this engine thatz extra power began to reveal, was its in-gear acceleration around the mid-range - 50-70mph or indeed any acceleration from 3,000rpm was now in the supercar league.
2 8 T H E P O R S C H E SA L E 2 0 1 6
Porsche continuously developed the 928 throughout its life, initially with the S2, which received the 4.7-litre engine and front and rear spoilers to reduce lift at high speed and subsequently with the 928 S4 in 1987 with smoothed off front and rear bumpers, a bigger rear spoiler, more interior equipment and a 5-litre version of the V8 engine developing 330bhp. The ‘S4’ style was largely retained for the rest of the car’s life but Porsche created several later model variants including the 928 GT and 928 GTS. This particular 928 S is finished in Sapphire Blue with a sumptuous deep blue leather interior, which clearly had an easy life. It’s recently arrived on our shores from South Africa where just one previous owner has enjoyed it. The car comes with some decent provenance, owner’s manuals, and a very good service record showing all the stamps, with the last one only having been completed some 800km ago. This attractive 928 S has covered the equivalent of just 88,000 miles, which for a V8 of this nature is nothing. Long-underrated 928s have just started to turn the corner with values rising, so if you were thinking about becoming a 928 owner, this cracking example must represent a serious option. Drive one and you won’t be disappointed.

1977 PORSCHE 911
Registration: TJA429R Chassis Number: 9117200017 Engine Number: 6393637 Estimate: No Reserve
Since its launch in 1963, the Porsche 911 has gone on to be probably the most successful sports car of all time. With an austere beauty and famed reliability, the basic design has endured to this day, punctuated with derivatives that have become icons of the marque. The 911 2.4 S was such a model and in October 1973, the 2.7 Coupé was announced sharing the basic body style but with the inclusion of impact bumpers. The 1973 911 represented a change in 911 ethos, with less frantic engines that were far more economical. The 2.7 engine delivered more torque to improve basic drivability with a Bosch K-Jetronic Fuel Injection System, and the body and wheels became wider. From August 1975, Porsche became the first manufacturer to produce hot-dip galvanised bodies, so subsequent cars are more resistant to rust. This particular car offers an entry-level price range opportunity to true 911 ownership. It was originally supplied as a 911S new to Hawaii in left-hand drive form and finished in Silver. The car has had a 3.0-litre SC engine installed during its life. Imported to the UK in 2014 from New Hampshire in the USA, the car is now fully UK-registered with all duties paid and an MOT certificate until August next year. Said to drive well and with a particularly nice interior, it is offered at ‘No Reserve’ and may well be the bargain opportunity of this sale.

Oddly, all of these missing items were on the options list, and it’s a rare 968CS that doesn’t have one or two creature comforts. The front springs were 20mm shorter and the rear torsion bars 20mm lower, Recaro bucket seats replaced the standard leather items, 17-inch wheels with 225 front and 255 rear tyres were fitted, and a close-ratio, six-speed, manual gearbox featured as standard. In its basic form, this was a serious no-compromise track car with performance to match from its 240bhp, 3.0-litre, 16-valve engine. The ‘Sport’ was a UK-only version produced in 1994 for Porsche GB, more refined and comfortable with proper seats and additional electrics, but was essentially a 968 ‘Club Sport’ with the ‘CS Luxury Package’ and different graphics. At its launch, the 968CS would have cost around £29,000 and so has lost very little in terms of value. In total, 1,923 cars were believed to have been sold, of which 306 were the UK-only ‘Sport’ models. M671 WEG was purchased by its current owner some six years ago and is nicely presented in its original Grand Prix White. Shortly after his purchase, our vendor sensibly had a full belt change with a cam and cam-chain inspection, fresh oil and the car was given a clean bill of health. Unusually for an original European market 968 CS, the weight-increasing options list was left well alone with the only nod to comfort being the electric sunroof. There is a Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche listing the car’s relevant details and its original options. During his ownership, this Club Sport has been upgraded with a ‘Variant 3’ coil-over suspension system including rear torsion bar reset, M030 anti-roll bars and bushes, and a ‘Big Red’ brake conversion on the front wheels. Finally, the chassis was set up by ‘Centre Gravity’ for fast road/track day use and at the same time, three-point harnesses were installed. Having been maintained by EMC Motorsport (a 968 specialist) and PCT in Coventry, this car is ready to be enjoyed by a new owner - and with the recent enhancements to what is acknowledged to be one of the best-balanced driving cars for years, the result is superb.

Porsche’s intended replacement for the 911 may not have achieved that particular goal, but it wasn’t for a lack of performance or technological wizardry. An alloy V8 was attached to a rear-mounted gearbox, and the galvanised body had aluminium doors and bonnet, plus body-coloured plastic bumpers - pretty radical for its time. The 928 was launched to a fanfare and surprised many by being named European Car of the Year, an award that traditionally went to worthy, but dull, family hatchbacks.
with a Cream Leather sports interior and carpets to match. Accompanying the car is a comprehensive service history, which includes an original fully-stamped service book beginning with a service at 1,548 miles at JCT600 in Leeds when the car was barely a month old. The schedule shows 12 more service stamps, plus additional ones for ‘Brake/Coolant changes’ and stamps for ‘Record of camshaft belt check after replacement’. The car is accompanied by its complete Porsche book pack (including manuals) and its dedicated toolkit.
Critics immediately recognised the advances inherent in the 928 over the 911, and the car was universally praised as one of the greatest ‘GT’ cars of all time. It handled, it was quick, it looked fantastic and it was comfortable. With the 928, Porsche created a serious long-distance Grand Touring car that could also tackle twisting B-roads with ease, thanks to super-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution and a clever Weissach rear axle that kept the car firmly planted. Many road testers found that their nerve ran out long before the 928’s grip.
In May 2012, the car was purchased by a previous owner from an earlier keeper who had owned it since 2001 but had not used it for several years. This new owner was particularly fastidious in returning our sleeping Porsche to rude health, carrying out a lot of work in 2012/2013 at approximately 89,000 miles including replacing the cam belt, a new clutch plate, clutch master and slave cylinder, four new drive belts (alternator, A/C compressor, power-steering pump and air pump), a new radiator, a new A/C condenser and a complete service. Our vendor purchased this very healthy car in July 2014 and kept up its servicing record, having a full cam belt, rollers, and water pump replacement service in July 2016. All of the servicing and maintenance is backed up by a large file of invoices and a series of old MOT certificates, which help validate the current mileage of 93,500.
Porsche continuously developed their range-topper throughout its production life, culminating in 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 316bhp. 1989 saw further development with the launch of the GT model, featuring a more powerful 5.0-litre V8 capable of 326bhp, but more importantly, the introduction of a 5-speed manual gearbox for those who wanted a sportier driving experience. This model also featured twin exhausts, uprated camshafts and sports suspension - the ultimate 928 had arrived!

Introduced in September 1963 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Porsche 901 concept heralded the start of a production run that even Porsche probably couldn’t have imagined, and now into its sixth decade, the Porsche 911 is still the model that underpins the whole Porsche range. At the Paris Auto Show in October 1964, French car maker Peugeot formally objected to the use of model numbers ‘901’ so before the end of 1964, Porsche changed the designation of their flagship model to 911. By the end of 1972 Porsche was ready to release its latest series of 911. The 1973 ‘F-Series’ is considered by many purists as the definitive and most coveted 911, the final series before the vastly different impact bumper ‘G-Series’. By 1973 the engine capacity had increased to 2.4 litres and the top-of-the-range model was the soon-to-be iconic 2.7 Carrera RS. In early 1973, Porsche made a small number of 2.4T Mechanical Fuel Injection (MFI) cars in a short run in-between the 1972 2.4T side oil-fill model and the later 1973 2.4 CIS Injection and Zenith Carburettor models. By the end of February 1973, the 2.4T MFI production run ended in favour of the less powerful but more emission-friendly CIS injection and in total, Porsche produced less than 300 2.4T MFI cars, rendering this 1973 2.4T MFI a very rare model indeed.
chassis is accident-free. There are plenty of areas on early 1970s Porsche 911s that are attractive to the old tin worm, such as the battery boxes, kidney bowls, side sills and door shutters, however, this car has been protected from the elements and remains in a wonderfully unperforated state. Complete with its original 6 x 15 Fuchs alloys and the all-important Mechanical Fuel Injection, this car represents a rare opportunity to acquire a low-mileage and rust-free example. The matchingnumbers engine turns freely, although the car has not run for three decades, so a full rebuild might be sensible. Offered to the open market for the first time in over 30 years, this car is crying out to be restored back to its original specification and its original colour of Light Ivory White with a black interior. Supplied with a NOVA reference number and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this car will need to be registered with the DVLA to obtain a UK V5C. At today’s guide, it certainly looks tempting, and we urge you to view this car and clear some space in your garage.
This left-hand drive F-Series 2.4T MFI was first registered in February 1973 and supplied by Porsche America in its original colour of Light Ivory White, considered by many as one of the most beautiful colours on offer at that time. Used very sparingly for its first 12 years from 1973 to 1985, it was decided in late 1985 that a colour change to Guards Red would be appropriate and so the car was taken off the road to prepare it for its new ‘coat of colours’. However, little progress was made over the ensuing years, and the car remained unfinished for the next 30 years, fortunately, stored in a temperature-controlled garage, hence its wonderfully rust-free condition. Given the time the car was off the road, the indicated mileage of 22,582 miles may well be correct, although we are unable to confirm this. Although it’s unusual to call a car ‘original and unmolested’ when it no longer wears its factory paint, the underside of the car is incredibly original and the

The SE ‘Flachbau’ was a fully bespoke, hand-built option for buyers of Porsche’s 930 Turbo in the mid-eighties and was over twice as expensive as a standard 930 Turbo when new. Built by the Special Wishes Department, the Flachbau cars were essentially normal 930s with the dramatic, 935-style sloping front end. They were equipped with an uprated engine of 330bhp (from 300), Dual Exit exhaust and an upgraded interior featuring pockets under both sides of the dashboard, a unique centre console, steering wheel and gear lever knob with gold crests. It also benefited from a limited slip differential, heated front seats and a sunroof. The term ‘Flachbau’ literally translates to ‘Low build’ however in the UK, they have become known as Flatnose, Slantnose or SE cars. In later years, Porsche supplied a works ‘Flachbau kit’, designed to be retro-fitted to 930 Turbos - however, the 911 here is one of only 50 genuine factory-produced Porsche 930SE Flachbaus and was built in the summer of 1986 under the ‘Sonderwunchprogramm’ (Special Wishes Programme) and supplied by Motortune to its first owner, Ronald Boardman, on 1st August 1986. We understand from the previous owner that technically he became the car’s second owner when - on 3rd February 2001 - he transferred title to his company, Sutton Oil. The car was then bought on 7th December 2005 by Simon Mackriel who is a Flatnose enthusiast inspired by the Porsche 935 racers that dominated the ‘World Championship of Makes’. A fellow Flatnose owner and enthusiast had spotted the car for sale at Slades Garage and told Simon about it. Simon engaged Phil Clark of TPC 300 to PDA the car along with Barry Smith the ex-Chairman of the Porsche Club, both recognised as experts in these rare and distinctive cars. They spent hours examining the car, including looking underneath the headlamp covers to see the tag numbers, which are unique to these cars and they were still there! There are also small square labels with the initials of the craftsman at the ‘Special Wishes’ factory who did the leather stitching on the hand-built Flatnose cars, and they are still on the car today! They also listed anything that needed to be done to bring the car to a state of perfection.

After purchase by Simon, the car went up to Wigan to TPC 300 where Phil Clark started to do all the work suggested in his report, including special paintwork with the original correct unique paint. To keep costs down, he did this around other work and the car ended up being there for five years in dry storage! During this time, it also had a full wheel alignment and suspension set up by ‘Centre Gravity’. The TPC 300 bill on 3/04/11 came to £7,193.40 with the mileage at 19,520. In 2015 it was taken to Dave Griffiths Racing Ltd. for additional work, including a rebuilt warm-up regulator, new plugs, new exhaust gaskets (important with 911 Turbos), brake calipers overhauled with new flexi-pipes, and fresh fluids. The MOT test at this point (8/09/15) indicated a mileage of 20,724. The car is accompanied by an astonishing amount of history and provenance. There are eight service stamps in the book and two brake fluid notifications with work having been carried out by Motortune, AFN Brompton Road, AFN Reading, TPC 300, Dave Griffiths Racing and Loe Bank Motors. There are a number of invoices in the file along with 11 earlier MOT certificates, which corroborate the car’s low mileage. The obligatory book pack contains the red Porsche service book wallet, owner’s guide to Porsche ownership, service book listing all the dealerships, an original Porsche accessory brochure/booklet, driver’s manual, guarantee, maintenance booklet, official photograph, new owner’s welcome letter from Porsche Cars GB, Phil Clark’s PDA Report, HPI Report (clear), a stack of Flatnose-relevant ‘Pieche Posts’ and various magazine articles etc.

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, high-performance 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 fourcylinder, more appropriately priced 911 and, as a result, the 912 (initially 902) was conceived. First available to European customers by June 1965 (initially with 1,582cc and 90bhp), the 912 soon became a market leader, particularly in the USA. In the UK, it 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 and the 912 won Car and Driver’s 1967 Readers’ Choice poll for its class. Its nimble handling combined with good reliability made it a popular choice for motor sport teams and a rally-prepared 912 won its class in the 1967 European Rally Championship. Production of the 912 ceased in 1969 when over 30,000 had found homes.
Naturally, during the body restoration, both the engine and gearbox were removed. The gearbox was fully rebuilt with new synchros on all gears and rings and the engine was subject to a top-end rebuild with the valves reground and new springs etc. All the complex tinware associated with the 911/912 was stripped and repainted. The seats, headlining and door cards are all original and in excellent condition. Additional work carried out during the restoration includes: gear stick and pedal assembly stripped, blasted and repainted; all brake callipers rebuilt and painted; new master cylinder; professionally recovered dashboard, fitted with new dash top panel and the dials refurbished; all new rubber seals, aluminium trim parts and windscreen; brand new tyres all round; shock absorbers; all mounts; lights and much more. This is a matching numbers car, and has the desirable five-speed gear box, a fivedial dash, factory polished Fuchs alloys, and comes with its original handbooks and, surprisingly, some good history from America. So long the forgotten sibling, 912s are now seen as really ‘cool’, particularly in the case of this example, which echoes the purity of early 911s. So much work has gone into this lovely Irish Green car to bring it to the condition in which you see it today that it must surely represent serious value for money. The car is UK-registered with a long MOT certificate and is ready to be driven away.
This original 1968, Irish Green, Porsche 912 was imported last year from the USA and has since undergone a body and mechanical restoration. The body was stripped back to bare metal and painted by an established classic car restoration company and, pleasingly, the only serious panel repairs needed were the floor pans, which were completely replaced as the vendor was absolutely clear that he did not want any patching or plating. All the spot welds were drilled and the floors fitted properly. The rest of the car is original so the panel fit is superb.

The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into production and was a lightweight and nimble rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sporting car available in hardtop coupé and open configurations. Engineering and design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and its popularity as a road car. The model was created by Ferdinand ‘Ferry’ Porsche (son of Dr. Ing. Ferdinand Porsche, founder of the company), based on an original design by Porsche employee Erwin Komenda, and initially its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the basic Volkswagen Beetle, a product of his father’s fertile imagination.

Registration: 7181 PO Chassis Number: 109072 Engine Number: P600331 Estimate: £45,000 - £55,000
This 356B runs and drives, but having sat for a number of years prior to our vendor’s ownership, we would recommend that some recommissioning work is carried out before you take it for a blast! This car presents a perfect opportunity for those that wish to carry out a full nut and bolt restoration on what is an early UK-supplied 356B. Supplied with its UK V5C and showing an unwarranted 67,651 miles on the odometer, this is the perfect car to take on to a new level. At this attractive guide price, 356B ownership has never looked better.
Porsche continued to develop and refine the 356 with a focus on performance and by the late 1950s, fewer parts were shared with its pedestrian cousin. Increasing success in competition and its availability worldwide resulted in the distinctive little car, in all its iterations, finding over 76,000 homes between 1948 and 1966. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector’s car. The 356B T5 on offer was built and registered in late 1959, making it one of the earliest UK-supplied right-hand drive cars built. Delivered through Porsche Main dealer AFN England on 10th November 1959, the car was originally finished in Aetna Blue, as specified by its first owner, a Mr. Richard White of Solihull. The car remained with its first owner until 1997, when it was sold to a Mr. Pearsall of Derby. It was presumably during his ownership that the car was repainted Guards Red - a popular colour amongst the Porsche fraternity. According to our vendor, the car stood still for a number of years before he took ownership earlier this year. The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms that the car is ‘matching numbers’ and retains its original engine, which runs smoothly when fired up. The body condition appears to be fairly solid, and there is evidence of the original Aetna Blue paint on the passenger door A-post. The interior of the car is in a presentable state and it still retains its drum brakes and six-volt system.

Described by every creditable performance motoring journal as ‘the best driver’s 911 yet’, Porsche introduced the outstanding GT3 RS Generation II in May of 2010 to great critical acclaim - not least for the 444bhp engine, which gave the car a 0-60mph time of 3.9 seconds and a 0-100mph time of 8.4 seconds, on the way to a top speed of 196mph. Effectively a ‘Carrera Cup’ car for the road, the mindblowing performance of the car combined with racing-derived suspension, and an exceptional ride/handling balance, also allowed the possibility of daily usage for the privileged few. And it was to be just a few - with only 35 cars officially imported to the UK dealer network, an average of just one car per dealer. This car was supplied by Porsche UK on 15th June 2010 and has since covered just 21,500 miles from new. The car has a very good service history and has recently returned from a Porsche main dealer, where a 111-point check was carried out. Both the condition of the car and the diagnostic rev-report are present in the history file and show that this car has not been abused. Coming with the benefit of a recent Porsche inspection, this car is a unique opportunity and is finished in the distinctive colour combination of Carrera White with Red wheels and decals. In addition, it is supplied with two keys, original service book and Porsche wallet, complete toolkit and wheel locking key. We welcome pre-sale inspections on this vehicle and encourage prospective bidders to contact the office for further details.

Introduced in 1997, the Porsche 996 was the first water-cooled 911. To date, the pre-facelift 996 Carrera 2 has turned out to be the lightest of all the water-cooled 911 variants, including the 996 GT3 that weighs 35kg more. The 3.4-litre 300bhp engine is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. Tiff Needell reviewed the 996 Carrera in-period on Top Gear and noted ‘as a driving experience, this is second-to-none; superb handling, steering that feels as you want it to feel, brilliant brakes, a slick 6-speed gearbox, and seven and a half thousand revs to play with. This is a use-it-everyday supercar’. In 1998, Car and Driver put the Carrera 2 up against the Ferrari 355 and the Porsche came out on top. Further still, 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 particular car is an early launch model, produced for one year only, and was delivered in January 1998 to Porsche GB to be used as their UK press car. It featured in a number of press reviews and in a Chris Goffey piece on ‘Men and Motors TV’. The 1998 Model Year differed from later cars in a number of ways, including amber front and rear lights, cable-operated throttle rather than by an electronic throttle body, and it lacked the in-dash glovebox. This is a very mechanical 996 whilst remaining modern enough to use comfortably. It was ordered in Metallic Zenith Blue with a contrasting Black leather interior and optioned with Sports Seats, 17inch Turbo Twist alloy wheels, and a Hi-Fi Sound System. It also has the GT3 ‘centre console delete kit’ for added comfort and knee room. The car has now covered just over 58,000 miles from new, backed up with a full service history with 14 stamps in the service book, predominately from main dealers. Its most recent service was performed in March by Porsche only a few hundred miles ago, and the car has since had a full engine-out inspection and top end rebuild at a cost of £6,000. Recent expenditure also extends to new Pirelli P ZERO™ tyres. The full history folder contains the complete original book back, all previous service invoices dating back to 1998, and even the original purchase invoice!

The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the original 911 that first appeared in 1963. These final cars (before being replaced by the more complicated 964) were the most flexible and useable of Butzi Porsche’s original design. Launched in 1984, and reviving the ‘Carrera’ name for the first time since 1977, these were the ultimate 1980s sport cars. The all-alloy flat-6 engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971, received a final stretch to 3,164cc, giving a torque-rich 231bhp - enough to propel the lithe and slippery coupé to over 150mph, with 0-60mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. Cars built from September 1986 onwards were fitted with the more user-friendly G50 Getrag gearbox, but all 3.2 Carreras feature galvanised bodies, which together with Porsche’s legendary build quality, ensure that these classics are long lasting. Offered here is an original UK, right-hand drive, 1988 3.2 Carrera Sport Targa fitted with the desirable 5-speed G50 gearbox. The vendor tells us that the car was owned for a long period by an oil rig worker and seldom used and, as a result, is showing just 41,000 miles. This is supported by partial service history and an ‘historic mileage verification’ from an independent expert. We understand the car remains in its original specification, is in good mechanical order, and has recently been subject to a brake overhaul with new callipers all around. However, the paintwork does show some minor signs of blistering, probably as a result of to our vendor losing his storage space and not having the correct environment to keep the Porsche, which ultimately has led to his decision to offer it for sale. The 1980s 3.2 Targa is undoubtedly one of the most all-round, usable classic 911s, and this excellent low mileage example is ready to be used and enjoyed by a new owner.

The Porsche 964 is the company’s internal name for the Porsche 911 manufactured and sold between 1989 and 1994. Designed by Benjamin Dimson in 1986, it featured significant styling revisions over previous 911 models; most prominently, more integrated bumpers. It was the first generation of 911 to be offered with Porsche’s Tiptronic automatic transmission and all-wheel drive as options. Porsche chose to reuse the 3.3-litre engine from the 930 with several minor revisions resulting in the engine running smoother, being less prone to turbo lag, and more powerful with a total output of 320bhp at 5,750rpm. The 964 Turbo is considered to be one of the prettiest 911s to date and certainly one of the most powerful. This stunning 3.3-litre 964 Turbo is an original ‘C16’ UK-specification, right-hand drive example that was sold new on 8th August 1991 by AFN London at a cost of over £75,000. Finished in its original and very rare colour of Tahoe Blue with Linen White leather interior, the car has been maintained meticulously since new. The history file on this particular 964 Turbo is one of the best we have seen. Bills and receipts can be found in the folder, along with an original service booklet boasting 20 stamps, original wallet, previous V5 documents, tax discs and numerous MOT certificates that substantiate a total mileage of 65,510 miles from new. A large number of those bills and receipts document huge expenditure with respected names such as AFN, Autofarm, Paragon and RPM. In addition, an engine rebuild was carried out by the current owner when he bought the car in 2009. Such were his high standards, the car wasn’t actually finished until 2012. Externally, the car presents very well indeed with good shut lines and straight panels. The interior is original throughout and is presented in superb condition. The last service was carried out in January by Porsche specialist Perfect Touch. Overall, this 964 Turbo is a highly collectable example that has been carefully maintained and is ready to use and enjoy. Buyers should be aware that the number plate shown is not included in the sale and the car will be returned to its original plate.

In the early days of the 911, the car continued to be developed and improved on an annual basis and the 1969 C-series models saw a huge step forward in the car’s evolution, with a longer wheelbase, wider wheels, low profile tyres, improved lighting, trim and ventilation, stronger suspension and brakes, plus the introduction of the excellent race-derived CD ignition and mechanical fuel injection. These advances were consolidated in the forthcoming 2.2-litre range. The D-series 911 models were produced from August 1970 to July 1971, and for model-year 1970, the engines of all 911s were increased to 2,195cc. The 911 S 2.2 was fitted with the SOHC flat 6-cylinder Type 911/02 engine, with an uprated power output of 180bhp at 6,500rpm, giving it a claimed top speed of 138mph and a 0-60mph time of 7 seconds. It had a 5-speed manual transaxle, 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes and 4-wheel independent suspension. The top-of-the-range 2.2 911 S represented the ultimate development of Porsche’s original 911 engine and transmission design, retaining the short-stroke freerevving engine and ‘open road’ dog-leg transmission of the original cars, whilst benefiting from the larger cylinder bore, stronger clutch and transmission, much improved wiring and electrics, Fuchs alloy wheels and a discreet front spoiler. Relatively expensive in the UK they were a rare sight on British roads in the early 70s, with only 44 examples sold in the UK in 1971. Of these, the survival rate has not been good, with modifications, corrosion and some inevitable accidents taking their toll.

Our vendor eventually purchased the rather ‘down-at-heel’ 911 in the early 1990s with the intention of restoring it and moved it into his lockup garage to start the restoration process. After removing some parts and replacing numerous panels, the process stalled with life and business interests taking over, and that’s how it remained until it was photographed only a few weeks ago. Chassis #0785 is a survivor and is believed to be a matching-numbers car, coming with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Our vendor tells us that the engine will turn over and a classic car restoration professional believes the car would be an ideal basis for restoration, as the chassis and floors appear solid and in a dry condition. Cosmetically it’s not original, with the addition of a rear spoiler, but this would be easily rectifiable as part of a full renovation project. This understated and rather sorry-for-itself project car gives off a real aura of former greatness and has the potential to be very special once again. With restored 911 S 2.2 models selling for in excess of £150,000, this car, with the benefit of so many original parts, offers a real opportunity for an enthusiast or restorer to return this venerable 911 S to life.
The car presented here is something of a local legend and was rumoured to be slumbering somewhere in the West Country for decades. Recently rediscovered in a dry lockup garage, this left-hand drive car was manufactured on 2nd March 1971 and sold in Germany before being imported and registered in the UK on 2nd December 1981. For unknown reasons, the car was only used until 1984 when it was taken off the road, having covered just 69,342 kilometres (an old MOT certificate indicates the car had covered 63,718 kilometres in 1983). In the years that followed, our vendor was approached by the then owner who explained that her husband had left her the car and she had little need or understanding of it.

The first-generation Porsche Boxster (the 986) was introduced in late 1996 and the design was obviously heavily influenced by the 1993 Boxster Concept. Interestingly, the Boxster was Porsche’s first road car to be originally designed as a roadster since the 550 Spyder in the fifties. The Boxster’s name is derived from the word ‘boxer’, referring to the vehicle’s flat or ‘boxer’ engine and the word ‘roadster’, referring to the vehicle’s two-seat capacity and convertible top. Early Boxsters used a 2.5-litre version of the flat-six with 201bhp, although this would rise to 2.7 litres and 228bhp by the end of the 986’s run. The ‘S’ model made its debut in 2000 and was a different beast altogether using a 3.2-litre six, initially with 249bhp and ultimately boasting 260bhp before the arrival of the 987 Boxster in 2005. The car presented here is a 2002 Porsche Boxster ‘S’ delivered new to Jersey. By 2002 the S model produced 250bhp, endowing it with real performance to back up the sublime handling. In common with many vehicles from the Channel Islands, this particular car has led a very easy life, having covered just 9,401 miles from new and is accompanied by a maintenance schedule showing a dozen service stamps from the supplying dealer. The car is described by its fastidious vendor as being in immaculate condition, both inside and out and knowing something of his exacting standards when it comes to his cars, it really will be. This particular example has been rarely used by its two previous owners and is in beautiful original condition, including the underside. In a very desirable colour combination and with a very high original specification, including Porsche’s satellite navigation system, this is very fine sports car. The car has recently been imported into the UK by our vendor and has been NOVA registered (ref: NOVA17P797437). It’s awaiting a V5C document and registration number, which should be here in time for the auction. A recent change in circumstances now means our vendor wishes to sell this great car, which surely must be one of the best 986-era Boxsters currently available. These competent and desirable little Porsches have been labelled ‘all the sports-car you might ever need’ and with good reason.

During the 911 Carrera 3.2 production era, all the non-Turbo variants - Coupé, Targa and Cabriolet - were designated ‘911 Carrera’ and offered in standard and sports options. This era 911 is powered by the familiar air- and oil- cooled, horizontally opposed, flat six-cylinder ‘boxer’ 3,164cc engine producing 231bhp and 284 Nm of torque, and fitted with a 5-speed manual gearbox. Ignition and injection are managed by the Bosch Motronic system, providing efficient and economical performance. Offered here is a stunning Porsche 911 Carrera Targa (1984 MY) originally supplied by AFN Porsche and having only covered 55,500 miles from new. It was purchased in 2012 by our vendor who was specifically looking for a low-mileage, UK-supplied Targa with a complete history and service record. Having found this example, he decided to conduct a full bare metal, glass out repaint in Porsche Summer Yellow (originally Grey Metallic) and had the interior re-trimmed in rare Brown/Beige ‘Pascha’ fabric by Porsche specialists Southwood. This expenditure alone amounted to approximately £13,000 and the invoices are in the history file. The result is a very fine example of an early Carrera 3.2 Targa in a great colour combination. It has a valid MOT certificate until July 2017. 3.2 Targas are now regarded as representative of the essence of eighties 911s, and this stunning piece of Porsche confectionary in custard yellow with its coffee and cream interior looks good enough to eat. Low mileage, well restored and nicely detailed, this is a great, investment-quality Porsche to be cherished and enjoyed.

This very special Porsche is a 1993 Ruf 964 RCT (Ruf Carrera Turbo) and was originally supplied by Porsche Stuttgart, country code C00 for Germany, as a wide-body 911 Carrera 4 Anniversary model known as the ‘30 Jahre 911’. Introduced at the Geneva Motor Show to celebrate 30 years of the 911, this limited edition 964 featured Turbo body styling, chassis, brakes, suspension, and a 3.6-litre engine. This particular car was spotted by none other than Alois Ruf Jr, the boss of Ruf Automobile GmbH, and it was used as the basis for a revolutionary conversion he had developed that would combine a Turbocharged 964 3.6 engine with fourwheel drive, something that Porsche themselves would later employ in the 993 Turbo. The Ruf factory quickly set about stripping the car and rebuilding it with some mouth-watering components. The 964 engine was created in-house with twin-plug ignition, Motronic engine management and naturally a KKK K26 Turbo that took the original output from 300bhp to 385bhp. The gearbox was rebuilt by Ruf and a limited slip differential fitted. Uprated Ruf brakes, Ruf suspension, Ruf sports exhaust, Ruf 5-spoke 18inch Speedline Wheels, Ruf electronic controlled 4-wheel drive transaxle were also fitted, and numerous aesthetic upgrades were carried out, such as steering wheel, gauges, and pedals, as well as aerodynamic improvements with rain gutter delete on the A-pillars. The Ruf factory is believed to have produced no more than 100 RCT models, with this particular car being the only one with wide Turbo body and four-wheel drive.
One of the most impressive aspects of this vehicle is its service history. There are stamps in the service book from 1993-1997 by Porsche main agents in Germany. From 1997-2008 it is all Ruf factory stamps and from 2008 onwards it has been maintained by Porsche West London, Jaz and then back to Ruf again in 2011 for a suspension overhaul and service. Our vendor is particularly fastidious when it comes to the condition of his cars and this Porsche is no exception, having recently returned from ‘B-Trim’, where it received painstaking attention to the paint and interior in exchange for the - not inconsiderable - sum of £20,000. Supplied with its original German paperwork and registration document, numerous bills and receipts for work carried out, original stamped service book and wallet, tools, correspondence, magazine features and current MOT certificate, this unique car has both performance and provenance that will appeal to any Porsche collector. This important example offers genuine value when compared to the 964 3.6 Turbo.
The car remained in a private collection until 2007, when it was sold to a UK collector and enthusiast. As one would expect, the car has attracted the interest of Porsche journalists and enthusiasts, and in February 2011 it was featured in ‘911 & Porsche World’ and favourably compared to its Porsche cousin, the 3.6 964 Turbo. Finished in Schwartz Metallic, the paintwork today looks stunning and the panel fit is excellent. The grey full leather interior features electric comfort seats with driver lumbar support and is presented in superb condition.

Synonymous with Porsche’s endurance racing programme and Le Mans in particular, where they have triumphed some 17 times, the design of the Porsche Carrera GT is firmly rooted in its motorsport lineage. After success in 1998 at the famous 24-hour race, a team of engineers started work on a new mid-engine V10 model, utilising advanced technologies and materials. However, the project was soon put on hold as the company decided to focus its energies in a different direction with the introduction of a new SUV and the development of the Porsche Cayenne. Fortunately, the Carrera GT project was kept alive, and a prototype was shown at the 2000 Paris Auto Show. Response to the car was enthusiastic, prompting Porsche to commit to a limited production run of 1,500 cars. By the end of production in 2006, only 1,270 cars were built, making it rarer still. With its 5.7-litre, dry-sump V10 engine (producing around 612 bhp) sitting low in the carbon-fibre chassis, the Carrera GT weighed in at 1,380kg and was capable of 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds, with a top speed of 205mph. Open the driver’s door and you are immediately aware that this is a totally focused, seriously fast Porsche with the sense of function only just lightened by the Beech wood gearknob - a nod to the famous Porsche 917 and its racing past.
Reading at a cost of £8,305. In 2014, the car was sent to RUF Porsche in Germany and was fitted with a suspension raising system at the cost of an eye-watering ¤11,900 - a fantastic addition to the car when negotiating some UK roads with the ubiquitous ‘sleeping policemen’! The last full service was carried out in November 2015 at Porsche Reading, when the recorded mileage was 18,018. During his tenure, our fastidious vendor has had the front bumper repainted and new body film applied. Supplied with a UK V5C, this Carrera GT has an MOT certificate valid until November this year and the odometer indicates 30,180km. With its Italian counterpart, the Ferrari ‘Enzo’, fetching premium prices, the Carrera GT is a car to be taken seriously, and this wonderful example from a private collector is one not to be missed.
We are pleased to offer this stunning Carrera GT finished in GT Silver Metallic with a black leather interior. Delivered new on 15th April 2004 by main dealer Champion Porsche of Pompano Beach, Florida, this example left the factory with a superb specification that included air-conditioning, CD player with Bose HiFi, Porsche Online Pro Satellite Navigation, adjustable steering column, electric windows, buckets seats, and carbon ceramic brakes with yellow callipers. For the gentleman about town, this car comes supplied with a luggage set including a leather suit carrier, a leather briefcase bag and a leather day bag. After two further owners in the United States, the car was imported to the UK in 2009 by a collector in Gloucester who kept the car for a while, before it was purchased by businessman and F1 team principal, Gerard Lopez. Our vendor took ownership of this exquisite supercar in September 2013, when it had covered a mere 12,737 miles, and immediately sent the car for a full service at Porsche

The 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS has always been regarded as a benchmark car - but maybe it’s possible to build a better one? Over the past four decades, Porsche mechanics have learned how to make an air-cooled 911 even quicker, better handling, more durable and more fun. This striking 911 Carrera RS Replica was created by the experts at PAR Porsche in New Rochelle, New York. It looks exactly like a 1973 911 Carrera RS, but offers greatly superior engine and chassis performance. This Carrera ‘RS Replica’ was built in 2005, and immediately purchased from PAR Porsche by renowned US automotive expert Richard Taylor. Since completion by PAR, it has had just one knowledgeable owner and he only drove it on the 1,000mile ‘Vintage Rallies’ that he and his wife Jean organize in New England and West Virginia. Mr. Taylor had this car regularly serviced by Porsche expert Kurt Palmer at Autosport in Sharon, Connecticut and, pleasingly, it comes with all receipts and paperwork since 2005. When it came to the engine, PAR started with the engine case from a 1973 911T. This was shuffle-pinned and line-bored, had the oil circuit updated and fitted with a 930 Turbo oil pump. The 9.5:1 JE pistons are on Pauter connecting rods that attach to a Magna-fluxed and micro-polished crankshaft. The new cylinders are topped with ported and polished ‘Big Valve’ heads from a 1973 2.7-litre engine, E cams and Weber 40 IDA carburettors fed by a pressure-regulated 100 GPH Holley fuel pump. A Euro Carrera distributor with MSD 6200 electronic ignition, K&N air filters, and stainless steel exhaust with dual three-inch outlets are among the finishing touches, along with Club Sport motor mounts and a 911S oil tank with remote front oil cooler. The classic boxer six drives through a ‘Centerforce’ clutch and Porsche 901 5-speed transaxle with close-ratio gears.
control arm bushings, adjustable rear spring plates, front and rear torsion bars and steering rack spacers. Cornering is sharpened by an adjustable front shock tower brace. The Porsche body supplied by Reutter has received steel Carrera RS factory fender flares, Carrera RS front bumper and a Carrera RS ‘duck tail’ rear spoiler. European-spec turn signals, taillights, driving lights and H4 headlights have been fitted. The exterior is painted Light Ivory, a correct 1973 Porsche colour, with blue Carrera RS graphics. Original Fuchs alloy wheels-polished rims with matching Blue spokes and proper Porsche centre caps-are unique to the 1973 Carrera RS15x6 front, 15x7 rear. They’re fitted with high-performance, directional, Yokohama tyres, size 195/60-15 front, 215/60-15 rear. The Black interior features Carrera RS door panels, new carpeting with floor mats, new headliner, new Sparco competition bucket seats, classic Momo leather-wrapped steering wheel and a six-point bolt-in Safety Devices roll bar. An Alpine AM/FM/CD with Boston Acoustic speakers is the only non-periodcorrect interior modification. Happily, the Alpine faceplate detaches, leaving an unobtrusive black face. Four-point G-Force racing seat belts-blue to match the Carrera RS graphics-highlight the interior. Purchased in the US by our vendor in 2015 and imported back into the UK, this car has received further love and attention under his ownership with UK registration and work carried out by the Porsche specialists, Jaz, in Hertfordshire. Since then, the car has been maintained by our vendor’s collection manager and has been thoroughly enjoyed with limited mileage under his current ownership. This special car is being offered for the first time in the UK, and has spent most of its time in a climate-controlled environment, so it will be a perfect car for tours and rallies, not to mention delightful drives on a summer Sunday.
The front brakes consist of oversize discs from the 3.2 Carrera and calipers from the 944 Turbo, and the rear brakes are 911S with vented discs. All brake lines are braided stainless steel. The suspension includes Carrera front struts and rear shock absorbers and 911 Turbo tie-rod assemblies. Weltmeister supplied front

The Porsche 968 made its debut in 1991 and was effectively the last gasp for the long-lived 924 line. Originally mooted as the 944 S3, the new number was probably more a result of pressure from the marketing department, but it was right for recessionary Porsche wrestling with struggling sales. The 968 was well regarded and received excellent reviews, even if the UK market had to wait almost a year from launch to get it. It was powered by the 944 S2’s 3.0-litre 4-cylinder engine producing 225lb-ft of torque and 240bhp, but with variable valve timing to improve power, torque, fuel economy, and most importantly, drivability. Visually, it was the biggest step forward since the launch of the original 944 in 1981, with only the doors, roof and tailgate being carried over from the 944. The new front-end with 928 style pop-up headlamps did bring a touch of modernity. The interior trim was standardised with the 911 and 928, justifying the inflated list price, but not enough as sales were rather slow, however, all that changed in 1993 when the stripped-out, back-to-basics ‘Club Sport’ was launched at £7,000 less. Not only was it cheaper, but the CS was also inspirationally good to drive. Porsche had set their sights on creating a car tailored for the driving enthusiast and, in particular, one with competition potential. This was achieved by removing all luxury-orientated equipment from the basic build specification, for example, less sound deadening material was used and the electric windows were replaced with hand wound units. In addition, Porsche installed manually adjustable, lightweight Recaro racing seats rather than the standard power-operated, leather buckets, and revised suspension optimised and lowered by 20mm, with 17-inch wheels also helping the quest for lightness and crisp handling. With the no-frills approach, less weight, and clever suspension, Porsche could now focus media attention on the Club Sport’s fast road and track abilities, and the CS achieved a ‘Performance Car of the Year’ award in 1993 from Performance Car magazine in the UK. In total, just 1,923 units were produced, of which only 179 were right-hand drive, making the Club Sport a very rare Porsche indeed.

This original, UK-supplied, 1993, 968 Club Sport finished in Maritime Blue is quite rare in that the original concept of saving weight hasn’t been watered down by the addition of items from the extensive CS option list, and in fact, the only nod to driver comforts are carpets and an ‘Alpine’ CD-player. The interior of this car is purposeful and devoid of any distractions and features the original and rare hard back seats in Nomex with Maritime Blue painted backs, a colour-matched boltedin roll cage fitted with removable front sections, and a plumbed-in fire system. The car’s track focus has been enhanced with KW suspension, an SS exhaust system, larger ‘Big Red’ brakes all around, a ‘KAAZ’ LSD, and an adjustable, 968 Turbo rear spoiler. This example has been sympathetically refreshed in the last two years, mainly addressing common mechanical items including a gearbox overhaul along with a new LSD, clutch, rear bushes, and brake and fuel lines, and the overall cosmetic appearance has benefited from a full respray in its original colour of Maritime Blue. Showing just shy of 100,000 miles, with an extensive Porsche and Specialist service history, this ‘pure’ CS has been developed into a perfect blend of a usable fast road and occasional track-day car. The 968 Club Sport was, and still is, one of the best handling cars of modern times and with rarity is now increasing in value. Having enjoyed one of these cars on winding country roads, this consigner can confirm that the 968 CS is one of the most well-balanced, and rewarding driving experiences money can buy.

1990 PORSCHE 911 (964) CARRERA 2 TARGA
We are pleased to offer this very special, UK right-hand drive 964 Targa, which was supplied new on 17th April 1990 through Glen Henderson Motors Ltd of Edinburgh. Presumably ordered as a demonstrator as their name appears first in the service book, the car was then sold to a Mr. D. Barnard of Thirsk. The car was finished in popular Guards Red with a black leather interior piped in red, and was optioned with an automatic transmission, a rear windscreen wiper, two speakers on the rear parcel shelf and a top-tinted windscreen. After years of use and many miles, ‘493 JUA’ was looking a touch downbeat, but just around the corner was the next chapter of its life, and its most exciting yet... To celebrate 50 years of the Porsche 911 and 40 years since the launch of the Turbo and Targa models, 2014 saw the inaugural Porsche Restoration Competition. The aim of this competition was for each selected Porsche Centre and their body shop partner to complete a full restoration on a Porsche, offering the chance to showcase skills and talents that the technicians may not get to test on a daily basis. Porsche Centres from around the UK took part restoring 15 cars back to their former glory and these cars picked from likely candidates in the local area included: a 924 Turbo, a 930 Turbo, a 911 3.2 Targa and one 964 Targa bearing the registration ‘493 JUA’. Porsche Centre Guildford and Premier Panel Skills set about work on ‘493 JUA’ in June 2014 with Simon Dyer and Ian Wallis at the helm, leading as project coordinators. They worked with a fabulous team comprising automotive technicians, panel specialists, paint technicians and component refurbishment specialists. A schedule for restoration was drawn up and the car was to be finished by the end of September, ready for judging at the Brands Hatch Festival of Porsche - the pressure was on! The body shell was painted in its original Guards Red and it was decided that the original stainless steel Targa hoop panel be polished to give it a finish reminiscent of its predecessors of the 1970s. By week 11 the rewarding process of refitting the body with interior fittings, fuels pipes, engine cooling pipes and other sundry items commenced at Premier Panel Skills, whilst maintaining the highest level

of attention to detail to ensure a good finish in the competition and produce a great car. All the while, the engine and other mechanicals were being finished at Porsche Guildford, ready to be bolted into the car and tested. The car had really come together by week 15, with the original interior having been sensitively restored so as to maintain some of the patina, the original alloys refurbished, freshly painted bumpers fitted, the boot spoiler added and headlamp rims fitted. The restoration of ‘493 JUA’ stayed on schedule and the final week involved MOT testing, full system and fluid checks and a thorough inspection of the paint, whereon it was flatted and polished once more and detailed throughout by Adrian Keen. The biggest hurdle to overcome was not only the timescale in which to complete the car, but also to ensure that that restoration be carried out without causing any disruption of customers’ vehicles. The team worked tirelessly, starting earlier in the mornings, working overtime in evenings and even weekends, without compromising the quality of the finished article. Confirmation of the quality of work put in by Simon Dyer, Ian Wallis and their respective teams arrived when this Guards Red Targa was presented as the winner of the Body and Paint award at the Brands Hatch Festival of Porsche. Having covered only 500 miles since its extensive refurbishment, this Targa is supplied with a UK V5C, an MOT certificate valid until 22nd August 2016, its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, magazines in which it has featured, an original 964 brochure, its book pack and a history file containing a full photographic record of the all the work that was undertaken.

Widely acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into motor manufacturing, the 356 was a lightweight and nimble rear-engine, 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 a 1,100cc air-cooled flat-four engine, to a proper sports car with a 2,000cc fourcam Carrera engine producing 130bhp. The 356 ‘B’ was produced from 1960 to 1963 and saw body changes that included a curved bonnet lid, more 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, including a new deep dish steering wheel and deeper front seats.

also has a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, some older service invoices, and its original handbook. As well as being sporty and lots of fun, this late built T6 Super 90 is a perfect representation of the late fifties/early sixties period that is absolutely in fashion at the moment, and this little silver Coupé would be welcome at any classic car event, rally or garden party. And while they’re still affordable, now’s the time to buy one.
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 carburettor, and Carrera air filters. Other detail changes included 9.0:1 pistons, stronger valve springs and a different crankshaft with 55mm main bearings. In August 1961, Porsche revealed the updated T6 body with larger windows for the Coupé and twin engine grilles on the rear deck. The T6 had a much revised front trunk with a different petrol tank that was accessed under a filler cap on the wing. First registered on 29th May 1962, the pretty little Porsche here is a 356B T6 Super 90, originally finished in Slate Grey with a Red Leatherette interior although it now presents delightfully in Silver. It is a right-hand drive and appears to have covered 67,000 miles, although we are unable to warrant that. It has obviously been restored at some point and was apparently on a show stand at the NEC Classic in 1996. Our vendor has a photo album containing pictures of the car’s last refurbishment, along with a number of older MOT certificates. It

1999 PORSCHE 911 (996.1) GT3 CLUBSPORT
The Porsche 911 (996.1) GT3 Clubsport is often considered to be the spiritual successor of the original 1973 Carrera RS. Initially introduced by Porsche in 1999 in limited numbers, these very special, first-year production models really were race-cars-for-the-road, and were originally only produced in sufficient numbers to comply with the FIA homologation requirements necessary for the 911 to compete in the GT3 Class in International Sports Car Racing. With this in mind, some of the production involvement for this original batch of GT3 cars happened away from the main factory line, with the Motorsport Division at Weissach being responsible for the final finish of each car. The Motorsport Division had a big hand in the development of these cars too, with the GT3 forming the basis for one of Porsche’s most successful and prolific GT race cars. These sensational road cars used a dry-sump, normally-aspirated development of the Le Mans-winning GT1 racer’s flat-six. However, it’s not just the amount of power and outright speed on offer – headline figures of 360bhp, 187mph and 0-60 in 4.7 seconds – but also the incredible response and character. The engineering depth is tangible, with a bespoke engine fitted with titanium con-rods that help keep it smooth and safe to a heady 8,000rpm. To bring the vehicle’s track prowess to a maximum level, Porsche endowed the GT3 with enlarged brakes, a lowered, retuned suspension system, lightweight wheels and a new front bumper with matched rear spoiler to help increase downforce. Porsche offered an option for the GT3 called the ‘Clubsport’ package. This replaced the standard leather front seats with manually adjustable racing buckets finished in fire-retardant fabric, a single mass flywheel, bolt-in half cage, 6-point driver’s racing harness, fire extinguisher and preparation for a battery master switch. Twist the key and the flat-six churns into life, idling with a whirring, rumbly voice that won’t quite settle to a smooth, consistent rpm. This isn’t a fault but a characteristic of the Clubsport models, which ditch the standard dual-mass flywheel for a lighter one that gives a throbbing, hunting idle in pursuit of sharper throttle response.

The 996.1 GT3 was respected automotive journal EV0’s ‘Car of the Year’ in 1999, seeing off, amongst others, the new Ferrari 360 Modena, with such comments as ‘’The GT3 is sensational; it’s a car with integrity, a car that feels solidly built and engineered, and you get terrific feel too, at a detail level through the steering, gearshift and pedals, and in the way the car rides and handles too.’’ These early GT3s were produced in small numbers (and not sold to the US) with just 1,350 cars initially, then a second batch of 508 cars, with 308 in righthand drive worldwide. Only 106 of these were imported to UK, 28 of which were Clubsports, and (supposedly) only 15 of them in Guards Red. The car presented here is very early example from that initial production run, having been manufactured on the 24th September 1999. It is a genuine factory GT3 Clubsport model in right-hand drive, and was delivered new to Porsche Centre Merlin of Nottingham. It’s an all-original example with a fully comprehensive service and maintenance history – there are servicing records from the year 2000 right up until 31,151 miles travelled. This car is unmolested and, we understand, has never been track-driven. It has covered just 32,287 fully documented miles. Coming to auction after some years as part of a small collection belonging to a Porsche Club GB member, this special car drives and performs as well as you’d expect. Accompanied by a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and its full book pack, this car surely represents one of the best early GT3s available anywhere. In years to come these rare original cars, with their true Motorsport pedigree, will be the ones to own, carrying the greatest potential for retaining collectable status. Most people would look admiringly at this elegant Porsche and see a regular 911 sitting low on split-rim alloys and wearing a ‘bi-plane’ rear spoiler, but anyone who really knows their Porsches would see one of the most desirable examples of the marque in the last 25 years. Enough said.

The 993 Turbo, introduced in mid-1995, retained a tight hold on the torch of the most powerful 911 variant, whilst continuing the general developments and improvements to the model as a whole. Amongst the new features on the 993 Turbo was an electronically controlled, viscous coupling all-wheel drive system, something Porsche had not offered on a turbocharged model since the 959, and a system that greatly improved the usability of the Turbo. Under the engine lid, now topped with a sculpted spoiler tail with downturned edges, resided the 3.6-litre, flat-six fed by twin K16 turbos. Combined with bigger brakes, fatter tires, a wide body and lower stance, the 993 Turbo was one of the fastest cars on the planet. With all four wheels helping to evenly distribute huge amounts of power, 0-60mph was dispatched in a staggering 3.7 seconds, 100mph whistled by in 5.7 seconds, and the linear forward thrust continued until the speedometer needle had said goodbye to 180mph and you were on conversational terms with the horizon.

The car has covered a total mileage of 66,710 from new, which is supported in the original service book with stamps from AFN Reading, Dick Lovett, and Porsche Solihull. Having just completed the restoration, the car is presented in absolutely stunning condition. The paintwork has been prepared to the highest standards with a glass-like finish. The vendor informs us that over 200 hours were spent flatting and polishing the car! In addition, the interior has also been finished to the highest standards and looks fabulous against the Gloss Black paintwork. Supplied with its original owner’s manual, service book, leather wallet, spare key and fob, toolkit and space saver wheel, an extensive history file includes numerous MOT certificates and service invoices throughout the years. The condition of this car must be seen to be believed and we encourage pre-sale inspections. This is without question one of the finest 993 Turbos we have ever seen.
This 1995 911 Turbo was supplied new to its first owner in the UK on 16th August 1995, in the very rare colour of Gloss Black. Factory options included front and rear impact absorbers, heated seats, sports seats, speed control, a top tinted windscreen, a sunroof and a Nokia digital audio system. It has had a total of six former keepers from new, and was purchased by our vendor in March 2005. Following his purchase, he sent the car to Porsche Centre Solihull for a major service, new clutch, and a gearbox refurbishment that included the addition of a genuine 993 RS short-shift linkage. Kept in a heated storage environment ever since, the vendor was not happy with a couple of blemishes and stone chips on the bodywork, deciding to have the car fully repainted to his exacting standards. Once he started the work, the project escalated and a significant number of other jobs were undertaken. This included a complete retrim in Cream perforated leather, wheel and brake refurbishment with discs and pads, new Pirelli tyres all round, and a new stainless steel exhaust silencer that sounds absolutely incredible. A hardback book accompanies the history file with a complete photographic record of the work completed.

Complex ‘Homologation’ regulations required that in order to ensure cars built to compete in production car racing on the world stage were not ‘one-off’ specials, they had to be produced in sufficient quantity to an agreed form. In the case of the Porsche 911 Carrera, this was the lightweight, racing ‘RS’ specification. Customers wishing to purchase a Carrera RS for the road had to specify the ‘Touring’ package that cost an extra DM 2,500 and offered the greater comfort of the 911’s trimmed and upholstered interior. When those production targets had been met, the lightweight RS was discontinued but the Carrera name remained proudly on Porsche’s top-of-the-range model, which, in its new, series-production 911 SC form mounted the 210bhp engine in a full-weight, fully trimmed body shell. In 1975, if you wanted to order a Porsche 911 Targa, then the 210bhp Carrera version was the absolute top-of-the-range. A rare right-hand drive Carrera Targa, one of only six supplied to the UK, this car was first registered in February 1975 and delivered with a fairly comprehensive complement of factory options. Finished in classic Guards Red with Black leather seats (inlays perforated), it came with headlamp washers, 15-inch Fuchs alloy wheels, driver’s side outside mirror, rear wiper, front and rear spoilers, tinted windows, intermittent wiper control, chrome trim parts, Bilstein shock absorbers and ‘Carrera’ lettering in black. Previously owned by Porsche enthusiasts and Porsche Club GB members, this car has been cherished throughout its life and retains many important period details, all of which are listed in the factory delivery specification. It has covered some 125,000 miles from new, which are fully documented, and it comes with an extensive service history and MOT records dating back to the early 1980s. The accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms matching engine and gearbox numbers.

915 gearbox is very good mechanically. The wheels are believed to be original and carry the correct date stamp ‘74’, and they have been professionally refurbished in the correct, 1974-specification ‘petal’ finish and shod with a set of periodlooking Avon CR6ZZ tyres. The interior is remarkably well-preserved, with the original vinyl dashboard and trim panels where they have always been and the special optional leather seats remain in wonderful condition, complemented by the original blue/black leatherette of the rear seats. The combination of Guards Red with chrome window trims and stainless steel roll-hoop is a rare find for this model year as, by 1975, most cars were delivered with black trim, making this combination particularly unusual. The Carrera comes complete with its 1975 driver’s manual and service directory booklet in the original documents folder. A complete tool kit with jack and periodcorrect air compressor is included in the sale. Accompanying paperwork consists of sundry restoration invoices, MOT to June 2017, a V5C Registration Certificate, and the aforementioned Porsche documentation. This is one of the best examples of the 2.7-litre Carrera Targa we have ever seen. These cars are very collectable and extremely rare, particularly in such splendid condition, and this exceptional 911 Carrera is ready to be enjoyed by a new custodian.
The engine has been rebuilt and is nicely detailed. It benefits from a new stainless steel exhaust system, mated to an original Bischoff final silencer that has been ceramic coated for cosmetic durability.

Launched in 2000, the 911 (996) Turbo offered genuine supercar performance in a compact and practical package. 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 although it went out of production in 2005, in real terms, it’s still as quick as anything on the road. This very well specified manual Turbo in Basalt Black has the all-important X50 pack, which includes larger turbochargers, a revised ECU and an exhaust, the combined effect of which was to raise output to 450hp. When delivered new as a C16 UK specified right-hand drive car, it was trimmed in Black leather, with Alcantara headlining and carpets. Further subtle upgrades were made by noted Porsche specialists, Nine Excellence of Horley, Surrey. These included a 997 short shift kit, a 9E38 upgrade that came with GT2 RS intercoolers, uprated DV, 1 Bar actuators and 5 bar Fuel Pressure Regulator at a cost of £7,600 at 66,159 miles in May 2015.

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, and when launched, the SC 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. With an engine based on that of the 930 Turbo, the SC was a real gem with a strong, reliable drivetrain. The 2,994cc 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! It used the same strong 5-speed 915-series gearbox as its predecessors, but was the first 911 to feature servoassisted brakes. The SC was offered as a Coupé, Targa and, in late 1982 (for the ‘83 model year), as a Cabriolet.

who replaced the head studs (will require tightening in 1,000 miles), fitted new tyres and carried out a number of jobs required to return this car to the road. There is an itemised invoice totalling £7,845 for this work in the file. The vendor describes his car as “overall in good condition for its age. Bodywork is sound, paintwork is in generally good condition apart from a few small scuffs and chips and a couple of small bubbles”. Overall mileage is around 80,000 (unwarranted) as the current reading is 54,492 and we understand that the speedo head was changed at 24,574. The car has a fresh MOT certificate (valid until 21/07/2017 with no advisories). There are a number of old MOT certificates and sundry invoices in the history file, all relating to post-1993. This is an attractive SC in a super colour, and with its Fuchs alloys, Turbo-look bodywork and very sensible guide, is certain to appeal to fans of these iconic eighties 911s.
The 911 SC was a very capable car, accelerating from 0-60mph in around six seconds and reaching a top speed of close to 150mph. It was offered with several options, including the classic Fuchs alloy wheels. 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 and therefore, they were not necessarily looked after properly by their impecunious new owners. Today, with the benefit of hindsight, they are seen as properly engineered sports cars that drive well with the classic look and feel of an era that is now rightly back in fashion. This 1981 911 SC Coupé is an original UK-supplied car finished in Light Blue Metallic paint, with a Blue leatherette and cloth interior and has been fitted with a sunroof, a Turbo spoiler and wheel arches that really suit the car. Owned by our vendor for the last 23 years, it was driven regularly from the time of his purchase in August 1993 until 2003, when it was laid up in a dry garage until this year. It has recently been completely refreshed by a well-known firm of Porsche specialists

Porsche’s long-running and much-loved 911 sports car first appeared at the 1963 Frankfurt Show as the ‘901’, but shortly after production commenced in 1964, it had become the ‘911’ following Peugeot’s complaints about the use of ‘0’ model numbers. The preceding Type 356’s rear-engine layout was retained but the 911 switched to unitary construction for the body shell, and dropped the 356’s Volkswagenbased suspension in favour of a more modern McPherson strut and trailing arm arrangement. In its first incarnation, Porsche’s single-overhead-camshaft, air-cooled flat-six engine displaced 1,991cc. The first of countless upgrades to the perennial 911 came in 1966, two years after production had commenced, with the introduction of the 911 S, and in 1967 the 911 T (Touring) was introduced as a new 2.0-litre model. Further revisions were made in 1969, when the 911’s wheelbase had been extended by 57mm. This very rare, early 911 ‘T’ SWB is a right-hand drive example first registered in the UK in early September 1968, with the original maintenance manual showing its pre-delivery inspection was on 9th September. Supplied through AFN Ltd, the first importer of 911s into the UK, the car was maintained by them until 1973 and period maintenance records reveal the car had two UK owners before it was exported to Guernsey in November 1973, with an odometer reading of 62,000 miles. The first Guernsey owner was an enthusiast well known on the island as the proprietor of a small specialist garage. His is the last entry in the Maintenance Record book. In his ownership, he also changed the car from Beige to its current, more attractive, period-correct Porsche colour of Irish Green. He sold the car in December 1986 to a school friend of the current owner. He took the car to a number of shows and even won a prize. The information sheet he put together when he showed the car gave the mileage as 77,000. He was to own the car for only two years before selling it to our vendor’s Uncle in November 1988, who only wanted it for the Guernsey number plate that read 911 to put on his new 911 Turbo. A year later, over dinner one evening, the vendor’s uncle mentioned that he had an old Porsche 911 he didn’t want and so the deal was done, there and then. The brakes had seized up but the engine ran fine. The car was taken to our vendor’s house where

it was put on blocks, and there it stayed for another five years, until eventually a local small garage was enlisted to help get the car on the road again. One of their invoices (dated July 1997) shows the mileage as just over 78,000, which, according to the current mileage, shows that the car has been driven less than 4,000 miles in our vendor’s possession over the past 27 years! It wasn’t until 2010 that our vendor could afford to have a proper restoration done to the car, and Guernsey-based Classic and Porsche specialists, Harrison Automotive, were entrusted with a full but sympathetic renovation to return the car to its former glory - they immediately set about the task. The stripped down car revealed no prior damage and only fairly minimal corrosion for its age. The detailed photographic record of the work done provides any prospective buyer with everything they need to know about its fundamental condition. For example, the floor pan did not need replacing, as the car had always been kept dry. No nut or bolt escaped their attention and the level of work undertaken on the car is truly first-class, as can be seen in the finished article. More recently, the engine and engine bay have been subject to further detailed refurbishment to the same standard. Along with the photographic record, invoices are present documenting the work undertaken, showing that the total amount invoiced for the project was £37,609.29. Further to this, the car is presented with an excellent history file and its original maintenance record book, along with invoices and paperwork documenting its life. Currently Guernsey-registered, the car will need a UK Registration and MOT certificate should it remain within the UK. Currently Guernsey-registered, should the car remain in the EU, the car will be liable to 20% VAT on the purchase price and the purchaser will also be required to NOVA the car should it remain in the UK. It is extremely rare to find an early 911 comparable to this car; in fact, we are not sure you can. Unaltered from new, original down to the radio, tool set and maintenance books, a lovely history, a small number of owners and long-term ownership; this really is a rare and special opportunity for someone to acquire a very fine example of an archetypal early 911.

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 sister 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 although it went out of production in 2005, in real terms it’s still as quick as anything on the road. 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 water-cooled, it’s not the same engine as in the regular 996; the 3.6-litre Mezger engine in the Turbo can trace its ancestry back to the old air-cooled units and is directly related, not only to the 996 GT3, but also the GT1 racer, with 3.2 litres and 600bhp. This engine has proved virtually bulletproof, and the standard 420bhp can be comfortably extended to 500bhp with confidence.

Registered on 11th February 2002 to the first of three registered keepers, this is a C16 UK-specified car with factory fitted options including a sunroof, Porsche Communications Management Screen for satellite navigation, telephone, radio cassette player, six-disc CD remote changer and draped Metropole Blue leather seats.

The 944 is a luxury sports car that was built by Porsche from 1982 until 1991, and was a step-change evolution of the preceding 924 model. With a brand new, Porsche-designed and developed, 2.5-litre, four-cylinder engine, the car had greater visual presence and the performance to match, plus better handling, stopping power and more creature comforts. The bodywork was revised with wider wheel arches, a fresh interior and upgrades to the braking and suspension systems. In 1986, Porsche launched the new 944 Turbo featuring a 220bhp, 2.5-litre, four-cylinder engine, which was essentially a turbocharged standard unit with strengthened internals to cope with the increase in power. The 944 Turbo was well received and sold well, prompting Porsche to revamp the model in early 1988. The ‘Turbo’ had been the basis of the highly successful and entertaining F1-supporting ‘Turbo Cup’, similar to today’s ‘GT3 Super Cup’. A decision was made to uprate the power of the full-race cars, and it was decided that the power upgrade should be passed on to the road cars, culminating in the launch of the Porsche 944 Turbo ‘S’.
wing as a gesture to earlier high-performance Porsches, and cost a huge 10% more than a standard Turbo. The car presented here is very special indeed, and is a genuine, UK-supplied 1988 944 Turbo ‘S’. It was first registered on 1st June 1988, with the chassis and engine numbers conforming to the specific ranges for these limited-run cars. However, this car is in exceptional condition and is a multiple Porsche Club GB Concours winner. It’s an all-original example with a very comprehensive service and maintenance history - there are servicing records from 1988 with 733 miles travelled right up until March 2016. This car has been used sparingly, covering just 47,177 verifiable miles. It is simply the best 944 we have ever seen and appropriately, this outstanding car wears the super number plate, ‘A944 TBO’. The 944, the 968 and even the 928 are seeing their values rise in the wake of the ‘911 explosion’, and the smooth and nimble 944 is now being happily recognised as a very desirable classic car. This is a rare car and these limited edition models are much sought-after by Porsche enthusiasts for good reason! This car represents a very accessible route into owning a show-standard Porsche.
The Turbo S was undoubtedly the fastest 944 and was introduced in 1988 as a limited production run, with a specification that emulated the ‘Turbo Cup’ race cars. Improvements included the M44/52 engine, with a new turbocharger, modified turbine vanes and enhanced DME mapping, a stronger clutch, transmission and limited slip differential, larger 12-inch front disc brakes (similar to the 928 S4), adjustable Koni suspension via the M030 option package and special ‘Club Sport’ alloy wheels. Initially, there were 1,000 Turbo S cars built, 77 of which were sold in the UK. All of these cars had the same silver-with-a-hint-of-pink paintwork, affectionately called ‘Silberrosa’ or ‘Silver Rose’, and Burgundy Studio Check cloth interior. All were equipped to Option Code M758. Following the initial run of ‘Silver Rose’ cars and in response to customer demand, midway through 1988 any colour from the Porsche catalogue, along with any interior option, could be specified instead of the ‘Silver Rose’ scheme. All the cars featured a stylised ‘Turbo’ script on the

A Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms that this 911S 2.4 was sold new by Porsche Cars Great Britain on 26th May 1972. Delivered in Light Yellow with Black leatherette interior, additional factory options included electric mirrors, front and rear Koni dampers, Recaro sports seats, a rear wiper, coloured windows, power windows and an electric sliding roof. It is one of just 146 right-hand drive examples supplied to the UK in 1972/73. Three history files document seven former keepers and their maintenance of this very special Porsche. Previous MOT certificates date back to 1977 and help substantiate a total mileage of 147,000 miles in 44 years. In addition, a large number of bills and receipts from marque specialists such as Autofarm, Sportwagen and GCR Central accompany the file. In 2002, the vehicle was purchased by our vendor, a long-term Porsche collector and Porsche GB Club member, from a Mr D. Wilson of Leighton Buzzard. While it is a complete and matching-numbers example, it required some TLC to bring it back to former glory, and a decision was made in 2005 to restore the car using renowned Porsche experts that the vendor had known and respected for many years.

Offered for public sale for the first time in many years, this ‘side-oiler’ 1972 2.4 S must be seen and inspected to be truly appreciated. The panel gaps and shut lines have been finished to an exceptional standard and the paintwork boasts a glasslike finish. A significant amount of time was spent during the restoration to ensure originality was preserved at every opportunity. From the time-aged anodised window surrounds to external rear grille and badges, the car has clearly been restored with sympathy in mind. The original factory seats, door cards, dashboard and steering wheel remain in the cockpit, and it looks sensational for it. A 911 S that firmly ticks the boxes of history, rarity, provenance and exceptional condition, this true collector’s item is sure to bring its next owner many miles of joy and happiness. We welcome all pre-sale inspections, for this is one of the finest examples Silverstone Auctions have had the privilege of offering for sale.
The entire car was stripped by GCR Central in Leicestershire, who subsequently carried out a complete engine, gearbox, suspension and brake rebuild. Once naked of all components, the bare shell made its way to Sportwagen in Essex and remained there for 18 months. A comprehensive photographic record shows the 911 back to bare metal and repaired with great care and attention. It was then painted to a very high standard in its original colour of Light Yellow, and sent back to GCR Central for reassembly. Every single component was either reconditioned, restored or replaced and the completed car was finally ready for collection in 2007. All bills for the restoration are on file, and the result is a very special 911 indeed. It starts on the button and has covered approximately 1,000 fine-weather miles to date.

The early history of the iconic Porsche 911 is well documented, however the mideighties saw the replacement for the successful ‘SC’ model by the new ‘Carrera’ model, built between 1984 and 1989. In 1984 Porsche introduced the M491 option, which was officially called the Supersport, but was commonly known as the ‘Turbo body’. It featured the Turbo wider wheel arches front and rear, and the distinctive ‘Whale Tail’. It also featured the stiffer Turbo suspension and the superior Turbo braking system, as well as the wider Turbo wheels and tyres. This Supersport SSE Cabriolet (option M491) cost around £10,000 more than a standard 3.2 911, and offered all the external styling cues of a 911 Turbo without the demanding handling traits of its forced-induction sibling. Porsche AG’s records of official Supersport production is sketchy, but according to a wellresearched article in the Porsche Post 2010, only 66 right-hand drive Supersport Cabriolets were made in 1989. Owned since 2004 and dry-stored for the last five years, a new clutch was recently fitted when the car was returned to use. A9LLH has the more desirable G50 gearbox, and is finished in a fabulous shade of Metallic Blue, with a Dark Blue leather interior with White piping and colour-coded Fuchs alloys. It has full-electric leather sports seats and a powered hood. Supplied with the car are its original Porsche service records and owner’s manual. Owned by the current keeper for the last 12 years, the car has covered around 90,000 miles (a new speedometer was fitted at approx. 70,000, which now indicates 21,000).

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, the most significant of which was the introduction of four-wheel drive. The displacement was now up to 3,600cc, 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, over 62,000 left the factory in its five years of production.
In July 2015, this Targa was serviced by marque specialist, Nine Excellence, before our vendor acquired it in August of that year. A customer of Parr Motorsport previously, our vendor sent the car there in December 2015 where an inspection was carried out, tappets were adjusted, the cylinder head bolts tightened and the engine steam cleaned. Other work carried out at that time included removing the steering rack and having it fully refurbished, replacing both wing seals, fitting a new spoiler wall and cleaning the idle control valve. The final invoice for this work totalled £3,058.
This particular C16 UK right-hand drive manual 964 Targa was delivered new to its first owner, a Mr John Bennett by the (then) Porsche Main Agent, Roger Clark Motorsport. Finished in special order ‘Diamant Blau’ with Dark Blue leather with Grey piping, the car also came specified with electric windows and door mirrors, electrically-adjustable sports seats, 17-inch Carrera Cup alloy wheels, a rear windscreen wiper and a Clifford Alarm. During his tenure, Mr Bennett had the car maintained by the supplying dealer, for which there is a comprehensive file of bills. In 1996 Roger Clark Motorsport went into receivership and so maintenance duties were transferred to Arlington Porsche of Northampton. Around the summer of 2000, the car passed onto its next owner, and an MOT certificate records the mileage as 121,196 miles at that time.
In the early part of this year the car was sent to TrimTech Automotive, where it was treated to a new Targa roof including linings and seals, recovered door cards, the fitting of front two-way JL audio speakers and Pioneer speakers on the parcel tray, stripping of the interior, repair of seat electrics, repairing electric window wiring and new studs to the under-bonnet carpet. Further interior work included making and fitting new replacement carpet throughout, along with a set of new matching overmats. Invoices in the history file for this trim work total £3,965. Most recently, our vendor had the wheels fully refurbished by Parr Motorsport.
By 2002 the car had covered 131,204 miles, and it was decided by the owner, Mr J. Gregory, that it was time for an engine refresh. Independent Porsche specialist, Hartech Automotive, carried out a top-end engine overhaul, which included cleaning and inspecting the cylinder heads, de-coking heads and valves, the recutting of valve seats, new exhaust valves and guides, new piston rings and new gaskets and seals. At the same time, a new clutch was fitted, along with new hoses and a new engine surround. There is an invoice for £3,719 for the work carried out, along with a full car condition report from the aforementioned specialist. From 2002 to 2015, the car was in Belfast, Northern Ireland with McEvoy Motors carrying out the majority of the service work during that period, for which there are numerous invoices in the history file.

A few years ago, the Porsche 964 was a bargain. Relatively unloved by enthusiasts, it lived in the shadow of the 993, and potential fans lived in fear of the serious bills legend said it could generate. Not anymore. Today, the 964’s rightful reputation is restored as the classic Porsche that’s anything but an old-school 911 with modernistic abilities, and one that is thoroughly worthy of consideration by modern buyers. Launched in 1989, the 964 is arguably the 911 that most faithfully combines modernity with the classic elements that made the car famous. Much money was spent at the time by Porsche with the aim of making it a car for the 90s while still retaining the visual appearance of a model from the 60s.
that it is, in fact, closer to screaming Lipstick Pink/Purple. Subtle it is not. But there is one Porsche that seems to have made Rubystone its ‘de facto’ colour the 964 RS. Pastel shades abound in RS Porsches, they seem made for the job. Speed Yellow, Maritime Blue, those solid blocks of colour work really well but Rubystone has found its natural home covering the lightweight panels of a 964 RS. It probably still requires a degree of resolve and self-confidence to own a Rubystone Porsche, but if you’re in touch with your feminine side, you should be fine. The interior looks to be in excellent condition and fairly conventional in Black leather if you don’t count the seat panels in Pink, Lilac and Purple.
The world of the 964 was not complete, however, until the arrival of the RS. The lightweight 964 RS was the first production car produced by Porsche to be given the famous ‘RS’ designation since the legendary 911 Carrera 2.7 and 3.0-litre models in the early 70s. At 1,230kg, it was some 10% lighter than the standard Carrera 2, mainly as a result of using an aluminium luggage compartment lid and a new rear-facing panel, manual windows, RSR door panels and pull straps, thinner glass (except windscreen), Recaro bucket seats, radio and speaker deletion, rear seat deletion, lightweight wiring harness, central locking and alarm deletion, no underbody protection and finally no luggage compartment carpets.
The odometer on this two owner car currently reads 41,000kms. It has a good history file up until 2002, and there are a number of service bills, letters from Porsche (Build letter/Spec authenticity, etc.), recent bills from Leicester Porsche, plus the V5C, older MOTs and the current MOT expiring on 31 August 2017.

This is a superb specimen of a legendary model – and it’s Rubystone Red!
Suspension for the RS was adopted from the Carrera Cup racing car at 40mm lower, with uprated stiffer springs and sport shock absorbers, and a limited slip differential was standard. The braking system was borrowed from the 911 Turbo and Carrera Cup cars with cross-drilled vented discs and 4 piston callipers, including two-stage ABS. The 17-inch magnesium alloys and oval wing mirrors were also fugitives from the Turbo parts bin. The 1992, left-hand drive, manual gearbox, 964 Carrera RS on offer here has just returned from Japan and is finished in Rubystone Red. Not the most accurate description for a colour. If you had never seen it in the flesh, Rubystone Red conjures up images of a burgundy hue in the mind’s eye. Perhaps one of those dark red Mica pigmented paint schemes so popular with the silver-haired buyers of Jaguar XJs. Of course, if you have any Porsche knowledge at all, you’ll know

The prospect of combining the most powerful turbo engine in their range at the time with a manual gearbox, and mounting them in a two-wheel drive lightweight 911 was the inspiration for the rather special Porsche 911 GT2. At the same time, Porsche upgraded and modified the suspension, brakes and engine output whilst lightening and removing interior components to create the ultimate driver’s version of the car at that time. This recipe has been used with the 993, 996 and 997 versions of their iconic 911 model. This car is the 997 GT2 version of the Porsche 911, introduced in 2008 and produced until 2012. The engine uses twin variable-geometry, water-cooled turbochargers producing an attention-focussing 523bhp and 500 lb/ft of torque, resulting in a maximum speed of over 210mph, and a 0-60mph time of just 3.6 seconds!

The car is presented with its Porsche book pack and a history file including past invoices, the Porsche Warranty (09/17) and the print out from the 111-point check. Boasting an excellent history and great specification, this GT2 is surely one of the finest examples available.
This particular GT2 is an LHD example that hails from the United Arab Emirates, where it was originally sold at Ali and Sons Porsche, Abu Dhabi. The first owner of the car was Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a member of the ruling Royal Family, and we believe he owned the car until around 2012 when the car changed hands, before our vendor subsequently bought it in late 2014. After purchasing and importing the car, our vendor set about having the car correctly converted to UK specification and IVA tested in order to be able to register it in the UK – this process was completed. This well-optioned GT2 is a ‘comfort pack’ example, finished in Meteor Grey with Black Alcantara leather interior.

1977 PORSCHE 911 2.7 LUX TARGA SPORTOMATIC
The car offered here is a UK-supplied, 1977 Porsche 911 2.7 ‘Lux’ Targa with the ingenious Sportomatic (type 925/15) gearbox, now with three forward gears. Believed to be a matching-numbers example, it was one of just 1,724 such models produced that year. With its mid 70s uncluttered styling, distinctive bumpers, full-length rear reflector and newly designed wing-mirrors, this car has all the classic styling cues from this once-overlooked era. It is further enhanced by the very period, 15-inch ATS ‘cookie cutter’ alloy wheels. Better equipped than many of its predecessors, the model-year 1977 (J-series) 2.7 Lux model retained such luxuries as electric windows, but added a brake servo, an improved heating and A/C operation. The Targa was now fitted with fixed rather than movable quarter-lights for better security, and this particular car is fitted with the optional extra of pinstripe cloth on the front and back seats. With a quoted 163bhp and 176lb/ft of torque from the famous 2.7 engine, it was reputedly capable of 135mph, and 0-60mph in 7.8 seconds. The car has been owned by our fastidious vendor since the 27th May 1983. A true classic car enthusiast, he had owned other 911s before this and specifically wanted a Sportomatic model due to the offset pedal nature of RHD manual Porsches of this era. In 1983, the car had done a believed genuine 43,818 miles. On the 15th May 1987, our vendor treated the car to a full engine re-build with an accompanying invoice for £2,674.28, and in December of that year fitted a replacement speedo. Used sparingly as a second car by our vendor, he kindly lent it to a friend to drive one day in 1990 who, unfortunately, collided with a fence causing damage to the front offside. Reassuringly, his insurance company dispatched the car to renowned marque specialist Autofarm, who repaired the car extremely thoroughly, with an accompanying invoice dated the 3rd September 1990 for £9,272.60. This invoice documents an indicated mileage of 3,624 at this time (*N.B. due to the age of this incident and the current classification protocol by insurance companies from this period, the HPI report indicates a Total Loss Payment; however, the vendor states that his friend’s insurance paid Autofarm directly for the repair work and the car was not written-off).

On the 4th March 1993, an amount of £860 was spent on the car with the mileage now at 8,366, and over the following 23 years, there is evidence of more thorough servicing and maintenance, backed up by numerous invoices and a series of old MOT certificates. More recently, £768 was spent on maintenance in 2008 and in 2014 two invoices totalling £891.77 help validate the mileage at 23,390 at that point. His advancing years have prevented our vendor from enjoying the car in the last few years, but he has diligently maintained it, as evidenced by an accompanying invoice from July 2016 for £364.68. The car’s most recent MOT certificate dated the 22nd June 2016 documents an indicated mileage of 23,595, which equates to this well-maintained and mechanically healthy 1977 car having covered less than 70,000 miles in total. The car does display the patina of use but appears solid throughout and, all in all, is a very usable example that is said to drive and perform exceptionally well. It has an MOT until the 21st June 2017. As 911 values continue to rise, the 1970’s 2.7 and early SC models are now also becoming more appreciated, with this 2.7 Targa being a worthy example.

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 regarded as the last of the 911s that were built whilst engineering integrity overruled accounting pressures at Porsche. 20 years on, it still looks modern - a truly timeless design. Launched in the autumn of 1994, Porsche claimed it was 80% new and certainly the bodywork was altogether more curvaceous, with a number of new panels and the overall look being 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 service book showing stamps until September 2008 at 74,000 miles; since then the car has been little used. Porsche 993 Varioram examples, such as this car, are the final evolution of the model prior to the arrival of the 996, and by definition are the last of the aircooled 911s, which, when combined with their sublime handling and classic looks, may explain why they have become some of the most sought after 911s available.
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 rear-wheel 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. However, the 993 used 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 with acceleration to match. This 1996 Porsche 993 Carrera 2 is a superb, right-hand drive, UK delivered C16 example with the desirable manual gearbox and Varioram engine. First registered on 26th April 1996, the car is finished in sparkling Ocean Blue Metallic with a Grey leather interior. It’s a well-optioned example and is fitted with a sunroof, air conditioning, sports dampers and Porsche lowered suspension.

Porsche introduced the 912 in 1965, as the successor to the 356. It had all the modernity of the 911, combined with the trusted mechanics of the outgoing 356. In 1966, it actually outsold the 911 worldwide; the UK was slow to acknowledge the great handling and looks of the car, while the US market couldn’t get enough. This has become significant, as the comparatively low numbers sold in the UK means that today we have to look to the US to satisfy prospective European owners of this ‘cult classic’. Offered here is a left-hand drive Porsche 912 finished in Polo Red with a Black leather interior, supplied to its first owner in the USA in 1968. Thought to have been restored in the mid-90s, although it still looks restoration-fresh, this car formed part of a museum display for much of its time in the USA and presumably didn’t go anywhere else. Sadly, there is no history with the car, but it’s a bit academic as a look in the engine bay suggests that everything is in good order. The car looks totally unadulterated with absolute purity of profile. Serviced and UK registered with the DVLA, this 912 represents the perfect opportunity to own an affordable Porsche at today’s guide price.

1990 PORSCHE 911 (964) C2 CABRIOLET
Registration: H377 CJF Chassis Number: WP0ZZZ96ZLS422991 Engine Number: 62L15629 Estimate: £34,000 - £38,000
With its distinctive shape and totally individual character, the 911 has appealed to driving enthusiasts since its introduction in 1963. In 1989, the first major update resulted in the 964 four-wheel drive Carrera 4 with a 250bhp, 3.6-litre engine (built on their experience with the Porsche 959). The two-wheel drive Carrera 2 followed a year later, identical in every way apart from the drivetrain. Production of these cars ran from 1989 up until 1993 and the introduction of the 993. This 1990 964 Carrera 2 Cabriolet is finished in Linen Grey (L550) with a full Cream and Blue leather interior. A UK-supplied car, it was first registered on the 1st August 1990 and has had just three former keepers from new. It is described by the vendor as in ‘stunning condition’, and has a fantastic service history file. Factory specifications include an electric roof, leather seats, leather door cards, tonneau cover, 5-speed manual gearbox, electric rear spoiler, Sony stereo, alloy wheels and Cobra alarm. The last owner had it in his care for over 10 years, and there are 16 stamps from Porsche main dealers and Porsche specialists in the service book. In addition, there are a very large number of bills, receipts and MOT certificates that confirm a total mileage of approximately 78,000 miles. Thousands of pounds have been spent on this car over the years and it certainly shows. Whilst all 964 cabriolets, indeed all convertible Porsches, offer lots of driver enjoyment with the top down, the sweet and precise five-speed manual gearbox adds to the experience. Buyers should note that the number plate shown in the pictures is not included in the sale.

The first 911 3.0 Turbo appeared back in 1975, in what was intended to be a run of just 500 cars - little did Porsche know that nearly 40 years on they would still be making turbo-charged versions of the model! Using an RS-derived 3.0-litre flat-six air-cooled engine with a KKK turbo, a then mind-blowing 260bhp and 253lb/ft of torque was on tap, but only when the engine felt that it had spooled the turbo to sufficient revs to deliver. The effect was legendary, as was the turbo lag, giving the pilots of early cars near heroic status - even if they were constantly picking sprigs of hedge out of the impressive oversized rear spoiler! Internally coded 930/30, they were cars of enormous character and somewhat limited brakes, coming from the much less rapid 911S. 1984 saw the arrival of the 930/66 Turbo, and the model finally reached maturity in 1989 with 16-inch wheels and a 5-speed gearbox based on the excellent G50 unit. This had stronger cases and special ratios to cope with the extra torque, resulting in better performance with less Turbo-lag. This UK-supplied, 930 Turbo was delivered new to its first owner on 5th September 1989 by Riverdale Porsche of Berkshire. A Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms the factory options of recoil bumpers, heated seats, colourcoded forged alloy wheels, electric height-adjustable sports seats, sunroof and a luggage compartment trimmed in Black velour carpet. Our vendor purchased the car approximately two years ago and had the car inspected by Porsche. The Grand Prix White coachwork is described as immaculate, and the original paint has been checked by Porsche and falls within factory measurements. The car has recently had a major service by Porsche Centre Leeds at 24,060 miles, and the history file is a joy to behold.

The 993 Turbo, introduced in mid-1995, retained a tight hold on the torch of the most powerful 911 variant while continuing the general developments and improvements to the breed as a whole. Amongst the new features on the 993 Turbo was an electronically controlled, viscous coupling all-wheel drive system, something Porsche had not offered on a turbocharged model since the 959, and a system that greatly improved the usability of the Turbo. Under the engine lid, now topped with a sculpted spoiler tail with downturned edges, resided the 3.6-litre, flat-six fed by twin K16 turbos. Combined with bigger brakes, fatter tyres, a wide body and lower stance, the 993 Turbo was one of the fastest cars on the planet. With all four wheels helping to evenly distribute great handfuls of power, 0-60mph was dispatched in a staggering 3.7 seconds, 100mph whistled by in 5.7 seconds, and the linear forward thrust continued until the speedometer needle had said goodbye to 180mph and you were on conversational terms with the horizon. A letter from Porsche Cars GB confirms that the production date of this Turbo was 7th July 1995, and the model year of the vehicle is 1996. This car has spent most of its time in Japan, where we are informed it was rigorously serviced and there is paperwork on file detailing the work carried out whilst in that country. In 2015, our vendor brought the car back to the UK, where he has since fitted a set of brand new tyres, had a Porsche Centre ‘111-point check’ carried out and attended to cracked stone guards on the rear wheel arches. They were replaced with OEM parts and finished in the body shop of Porsche Portsmouth, who carried out all the work that was recommended by the report. Our vendor has invoices on file which confirm he has spent circa 10,000 on this car under his ownership, and to complete the process, he has UK-registered the vehicle and it is therefore now ready to return to the European roads from whence it once came. With only 77,000 kilometres on the odometer, an MOT valid until January 2017, and at a very sensible guide price, this is a great opportunity to acquire a car that is still considered blisteringly fast some two decades after its production ceased.

Following spells at the Austro-Daimler, Mercedes-Benz and Steyr companies, all of which benefited greatly from his monumental engineering prowess, Dr Ferdinand Porsche set up his own design consultancy in Stuttgart on 25th April 1931. The business’ most celebrated product of the 1930s was, of course, Hitler’s People’s Car - the Volkswagen - but the company was also active in other fields, literally so in the case of its tractor project. Several prototypes were constructed prior to WW2, the earliest of which were powered by petrol engines, before Dr. Porsche turned to diesel power, eventually developing a series of one, two, three and four cylinder aircooled engines ranging in output from 14 to 55bhp. An unusual feature of Porsche’s tractor system was its hydraulic coupling between the engine and the gearbox, which permitted smooth, clutch-less gear changes and thus reduced wear on the transmission components.
Encyclopaedia of Tractors and Trucks’ and ‘The World’s Greatest Tractors’), a couple of which feature this immaculate, red and cream 308 Super. Presented with the tractor is an album documenting the restoration from field to delivery in the UK. We understand it was never registered for the road, however, it has the correct chassis plate and the chassis number is clearly visible, so with the appropriate factory papers and documentation, registration shouldn’t be a problem. Porsche Club GB have experience in this situation and would be a great help. They have an active Tractor Register and when suitably legal, this comparatively quick 308 would be perfect for a summer’s evening ‘road run’. A beautifully restored, rare Porsche 308 N Super tractor. A must for any Porsche enthusiast’s garage.
After the end of the war, Porsche was barred from producing its own tractors and only companies that had been making tractors prior to and during the war were permitted to carry on, forcing Porsche to license its designs to other manufacturers. Agreements were concluded with two companies, Allgaier GmbH in Germany and Hofherr-Schrantz in Austria, and then in 1954 Mannesmann AG diversified into tractor manufacture by acquiring the rights to Porsche’s engine and Allgaier’s tractor design, setting up Porsche-Diesel Motorenbau GmbH. In 1956, Mannesmann built a new manufacturing facility at the old Zeppelin factory in Friedrichshafen-Manzell, with the new range consisting of four models, JUNIOR, STANDARD, SUPER, and MASTER (14hp, 25hp, 38hp, 50hp). Porsche-Diesel Motorenbau manufactured over 125,000 tractors between 1956 and 1963, many of which were exported, its products gaining the same reputation for sound engineering and superb build quality as their road-car relatives. This sought-after 308 Super (air-cooled, four stroke, 2,466cc three-cylinder diesel) was acquired from a farm near Dublin in 2014, where it had sat forlornly in a corner of a field for several years. It was then taken to renowned vintage tractor expert John Carroll in County Limerick, who set about a careful and methodical restoration of this handsome tractor. John Carroll is one of the world’s leading authors on ‘matters tractor’ and has published half a dozen books on the subject (‘The Illustrated

Following the international success of the 924, a more powerful Porschedesigned all-alloy, 2.5-litre inline-four engine producing 163bhp was introduced in 1982 for the 944. Porsche engineers were able to produce a very smooth running four-cylinder engine by utilising two counter-rotating balance shafts running at twice engine speed. These carry eccentric weights that produce inertial forces, balancing out the unbalanced secondary forces, making a four-cylinder engine feel as smooth as a six.
This is a nicely presented example of these quick, agile and comfortable 944 Turbos and attractively guided at £15,000 to £18,000 we believe would make a shrewd investment and represents good value for money in a market for these cars that seems to be heading inexorably north.
Cosmetically, the bodywork was revised with wider wheel arches (similar to that of the 924 Carrera GT), a fresh interior and upgrades to the braking and suspension systems. With greater visual presence and the performance to match, better handling, stopping power and more creature comforts, the 944 was a major step forward. A turbo version of the 944 was always on the cards, and it boosted the 2.5-litre engine by nearly 60bhp, whilst both the clutch and gearbox were uprated to suit. The chassis was beefed up and thicker anti-roll bars and four-pot brake calipers were fitted. A smooth nose panel and a larger rear spoiler distinguished it from its lesser siblings. For 1988, a Turbo SE was offered with 250bhp thanks to a larger turbocharger, the transmission was again upgraded, and a limited slip diff was fitted along with uprated brakes and Koni dampers. From 1989-1991 the ‘SE’ specification was adopted for the standard 944 Turbo making it somewhat of a sleeping giant. This particular car is finished in Schwartz Black with a contrasting cream leather interior and has been in hibernation for many years until recently emerging into the light of day. It has since been the subject of a mild restoration including paintwork and mechanically recommissioned to return it to daily use. The odometer indicates some 30,000 miles, which may be correct, but sadly there is very little history with the car.

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 Sports Car Championship now geared for ‘Prototypes’. Without sufficient time to respond and complete a build programme, Porsche switched their attention to the European GT Championship, further developing 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, and very few remain as road cars and are consequently incredibly expensive.

used only sparingly. With accompanying invoices for maintenance, totalling £3,340.88, this car drives and performs particularly well. This very presentable RSR ‘homage’ offers a lot of visual presence and drivability for the money. With many of these earlier cars lacking in certain areas, often by retaining standard interiors for instance, this credible example represents a very viable route into owning a Porsche that will certainly turn heads and will really deliver in terms of pride of ownership. (N.B. the period number-plate RSX 172J seen in the photographs will come with the car, albeit it is currently on retention – the retention document is in the history file for the new owner to reassign).
The Porsche RSR ‘Evocation/Replica’ market has grown enormously and demand is far outstripping the supply of quality machines. In more recent years, these cars have advanced somewhat, with some examples now using genuine RSR components and utilising even more specialised engineering techniques. Consequently, now even some of the Evocation cars are realistically out of reach for most, with examples being offered in excess of £150,000. The car presented here is based on a 1985 Porsche 911 3.2, having been substantially reengineered to pay homage to the legendary RSR. Reassuringly, it was a car converted and sold by RS-Teknik, a subsidiary of respected Porsche dealer and restorer Paul Stephens, albeit some years ago (believed in 2011). Finished in Signal (Jägermeister) Orange, this striking car utilises a very healthy tuned 3.2 flat-six engine and many specialist parts and is fitted with uprated suspension, ignition system and brakes, a stainless exhaust system and Fuchs alloys shod with Michelin TB road/race tyres. With a bespoke fast road/race car style interior, fitted with new Willans harnesses, this is a great looking car. For several years the car was part of a small collection, having been garaged and

Finished to a show standard in Speed Yellow with superb attention to detail, this 240bhp track/fast road prepared car is on the button and ready to go. The shell was stripped and lightened, with composite panels including both bumpers, bonnet, and front wings, and fitted with polycarbonate side windows with sliding hatches, gas coil-over fully adjustable suspension all round, stainless steel big bore performance exhaust, quick-shift gear change, and immaculate split rim alloys in Gloss Black shod with Toyo Proxes tyres. Inside we have a full FIAapproved ‘Clubmans’ cage by Custom Cages, a fully plumbed in fire extinguisher system, in-date 5-point race harnesses, in-date Bimarco Futura FIA race seats, detachable steering wheel etc. This stunning Porsche is fully road legal and will come with a fresh MOT certificate, a large file showing set ups etc., two sets of keys, original service book, manuals in the original wallet, almost every MOT certificate from new and the most incredible service history.

The Porsche 964 is the internal name for Porsche 911s manufactured and sold between 1989 and 1994. Designed by Benjamin Dimson in 1986, it featured significant styling revisions over previous 911 models, most prominently the more integrated bumpers. A new naturally aspirated engine called the M64 was used for 964 models, with a flat-6 displacement of 3.6-litres. Porsche substantially revised the suspension, replacing the rear torsion bars with coil springs and shock absorbers. Power steering and ABS brakes were added to the 911 for the first time; both were standard. The exterior bumpers and fog lamps became flush into the car, allowing for better aerodynamics. Furthermore, a new electric rear spoiler rose up at speeds above 50 mph and lowered down flush with the rear engine lid at lower speeds, or at rest. In 1992, Porsche produced a lightweight, rear-wheel-drive only version of the 964 called the Carrera RS. The RS was fitted with a revised version of the standard engine titled M64/03 internally which had an increased power output of 256hp and a lightweight flywheel coupled to the G50/10 gearbox with closer ratios, asymmetrical Limited Slip Differential and steel synchromesh. A stripped-out interior devoid of luxuries such as electric windows, rear seats, air-conditioning and cruise control were part of the RS package, as were the bucket front seats. The bonnet was made of aluminium, the chassis was seam welded, and sound deadening was deleted. Furthermore, the glass was thinner in the doors and rear window. The Carrera RS is approximately 155kg lighter than the standard model. The NGTs were further stripped-out with all carpets and soundproofing removed. Front carpets were replaced with plywood footboards, a full welded cage was fitted, and seats were Nomex-covered rather than leather. Additionally, the NGTs featured a long-range fuel tank, plumbed in fire extinguisher, external cut-off, fire extinguisher release, and a relocated DME. Harder and more track focused, these were the great racers and are still running in events like the Nürburgring 24hrs. A total of just 290 were made.

First registered on 12th December 1991, and supplied new by Porsche in Stuttgart, this rare NGT example is a European specification car and is chassis number 76 out of 290. The car was to remain in Germany until 2010 having had just three owners, before being exported to its new owner in Japan via Thomas Schmitz, a renowned Porsche RS specialist in Germany. At this time he noted in the corresponding documentation that a front-end repair had been carried out on the car. Showing just 25,000 miles, it’s finished in the striking colour of Maritime Blue, which looks good on a 964, and the paintwork is generally excellent with just a few minor blemishes. Inside the car, the cabin is in excellent condition, retaining much of the character of a standard 964 but with a more purposeful sporting feel orientated around the driver, helped largely by the addition of the Nomex Recaro bucket seats, a welded roll cage, Alcantara Momo steering wheel and four-point harnesses. Similarly, the engine bay is very clean and tidy, commensurate with age and mileage. Present in the history file are the handbook and the original dealer-supplied maintenance book, which is complete with the options code sticker and no less than eight German service stamps. Numerous German documents, plus invoices from Porsche and Porsche Specialists further verify the service history. The car has been imported into the UK with all duties and taxes paid. This is a superb example indeed and would make a fine addition to any garage as the 964 is often regarded as the all-encompassing true driver’s 911. There can be no doubt then that this Carrera RS in NGT specification is one of the most driverfocused and rewarding Porsches you will ever find.

Throughout recent Porsche 911 history the GT2 has been the fastest, most focused and most expensive version of the iconic car. In 2000, when Porsche introduced the 996 version with 483bhp and no four-wheel drive or driver aids, it quickly gained a reputation as the ultimate driver’s car. This makes the GT2 one of the more interesting cars of recent times, as most GT Porsches go on to become collectable and thus, a car with a reputation like this can only gain kudos and legendary status over time. No four-wheel drive, stability control or traction control, no rear seats, thin glass and a 30mm lower ride height set the opening scene. At the back, the GT2 has a larger fixed wing with extra air intakes tucked into the supports to feed the turbochargers. Inside, carbon trim is liberally added and there are huge race-style leather seats, but no rear seats. The 483bhp engine is derived directly from the company’s Le Mans-winning 911 GT1 with a twin turbo 3.6-litre configuration featuring magnesium alloy and titanium in abundance. The advanced six-speed gearbox is derived from the GT2 race cars that have over 1 million miles of racing to their credit, and 0-60mph is just 4 seconds and 0-100 in 8.5. This particular privately-owned car is in superb, original condition having being UKsupplied (C16) in right-hand drive and first registered in August 2001. It has now covered just 38,400 miles and comes complete with a full Porsche service history, which is a mix of main dealer and noted Porsche specialists. Finished in its original Arctic Silver with black leather, which includes both the sports competition seats and dashboard, it also features factory options of Bi-Xenon headlights, colour-coded centre console, vents and handbrake and a carbon pack to the door sills, steering wheel and seat backs. The car is matching numbers throughout and has a detailed history file with the original service pack and handbooks. Our vendor, who has owned the car for over five years, confirms it is incident-free and a fantastic car to drive. Recently serviced in May of this year and complete with a fresh MOT certificate and all tyres in excellent order, this car is ready to be enjoyed as a rare and now recognised classic and highly collectable Porsche.

The Porsche 911 was introduced in 1963 to great acclaim and has become one of the world’s most enduring sports car designs. In replacing the 356, customers immediately noticed the differences from its predecessor, as in addition to being more modern and more powerful, it was also considerably more expensive, especially in the US. In Europe too, this was a problem, so to remedy this, a year after 911 production commenced, Porsche had a bit of a rethink and introduced the similarly bodied 912 as an entry level/transitional model with the new car entering production in April 1965.
whilst the transmission is smooth and responsive. Finished in striking Polo Red with good panel gaps, the interior with black leatherette, is also in fine order (apart from a small crack on the centre of the dashboard). As enthusiasts know, these 912 models are becoming more and more desirable, with good examples becoming much harder to find. This delightful 912 is certainly a practical classic that could be lovingly used for many years to come.
Essentially a 911 fitted with the well-established 1600cc 356-type flat four, the 912 was a very capable modern sports-car in period, but was importantly more affordable, selling at near-356 prices. The 912 produced 90bhp, some 40 horsepower less than the 911’s six-cylinder engine, but this deficit was offset by significantly reduced weight, resulting in a better-balanced car with greatly improved road manners and better economy. The combination of the fourcylinder engine and the ‘slippery’ 911 shape was capable of achieving 30mpg. This new model had all the looks and style of the 911 whilst sharing its gearbox, monocoque steel chassis, independent front torsion bar and trailing arm rear suspension and all-round disc brakes. Despite being down on power, the agile 912 had a respectable top speed of 119mph, while the UK list price of £2,467 undercut the 911 by around 16%. A little over 30,000 examples were produced at Karmann’s works (Porsche’s factory was fully occupied with the 911) between 1965 and 1968, and today the 912 is a relative rarity when compared with its better known sibling. The car presented here is a 1968 (MY) Porsche 912, being actually manufactured on the 9th September 1967. It’s a matching-numbers, left-hand drive, short wheelbase example, fitted with a four-speed gearbox. Imported recently from California, the car is now UK-registered, with a fresh MOT certificate, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, its original driver’s manual and spare wheel.

The prospect of combining the most powerful turbo engine in their range at the time with a manual gearbox, and mounting them in a 2-wheel drive lightweight 911, was the inspiration for the rather special Porsche 911 GT2. At the same time, Porsche upgraded and modified the suspension, brakes and engine output whilst lightening and removing interior components to create the ultimate driver’s version of the car at that time. This recipe has been used with the 993, 996 and 997 versions of their iconic 911 model. This car is the 997 GT2 version of the Porsche 911, introduced in 2008 and produced until 2012. The engine uses twin variable-geometry water-cooled turbochargers producing a serious 523bhp and 500 lbs foot of torque, which leads to a maximum speed in excess of 210mph and a 0-60mph time of just 3.6 seconds! This 2008, UK-delivered Generation 1 GT2 has been subject to much expenditure resulting in its current specification. Shortly after purchasing the car, the second of its two owners decided to convert the car to a GT2 RS exterior specification, combining the driver-friendly road manners of the GT2 with the dramatic looks of the RS, without the rather focused driving characteristics of the RS. At great expense, the car was converted using the RS carbon fibre bonnet and detailing (such as the side intakes), RS wheels were fitted and the bumpers and headlights changed to Gen II specification to complete the look. Inside, the car retains the more civilised interior of the GT2 with the addition of a roll cage and harnesses. Showing just 51,300 miles at the time of cataloguing, the car has clearly been well maintained over these miles, with a comprehensive service history and many invoices showing that no expenditure has been spared on this stunning Porsche. With the GT2 RS becoming increasingly more unobtainable and with a price tag to match, this car neatly fills the gap as a useable and sensible alternative to a GT2 RS, and at our guide, is possibly one of the most affordable GT2s available on the open market.

1988 PORSCHE 911 (930) TURBO TARGA ‘FLATNOSE’
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 Turbo buyers could specify their car in this style to special order from the ‘Sonderwunschen Program’. However, these cars (marketed as the Turbo SE) carried a huge cost premium over the standard car and were rarely ordered, prompting Porsche to offer the M506 (Flachbau) Option as a factory kit that could be retro-fitted to existing 930 Turbos. This delightful, very rare, right-hand drive 911 (930) Turbo Targa was supplied new by JCT600 on 1st August 1988, and several months later the decision was taken to convert it to a Flachbau car using the factory option kit. This work was carried out by Dage Sport Ltd. in early 1989 using the correct Porsche parts throughout.

However, the good news is that prior to our vendor’s purchase, during 2015, the car had been the subject of significant attention. The work was carried out by RSR Engineering of Grayshott and the engine rebuild included the following: Rebuilt Heads with Guides, Valves, and Seats. New 3.2 Carrera spec Camshafts. New Hybrid K27 Turbo and Turbo Smart wastegate. Complete new exhaust system. All engine-bay tinware was powder coated. The gearbox was also stripped, cleaned and inspected at this time and rebuilt with new synchros on the first, second and third gears. Invoices for the engine work (£4,834) and the gearbox (£1,760) are in the file. The car was then professionally resprayed in its original Gloss Black. This superb 930 Turbo Targa is supplied with a V5C registration document, an MOT test certificate with no advisories (expires June 2017), the handbook pack containing the original handbook and fully stamped service book, and its history file containing all the recent invoices. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a well sorted, low mileage 930 Turbo ‘Flatnose’ at considerably less than an original factory 930 Flachbau. The registration number CCZ 9111 is not included in the sale, and a new one is in the process of being issued.
Finished in Gloss Black with a Black Leather interior, this distinctive Porsche has a full service history supporting its indicated 50,015 miles, and was purchased by our vendor earlier this year with the specific intention of using it for a rally to Monte Carlo. In order to ensure its reliability in the run down to Monaco, he entrusted the car to Autotec in Cheltenham to sort out a couple of minor electrical glitches (bill in file £1,186) but, sadly, they ran out of time and our vendor was obliged to use another of his cars for the rally. Consequently, this dramatic Porsche is now surplus to requirements.

The Porsche 911 (996) GT3 was the spiritual successor to the original 1973 Carrera RS, and was designed to be lightweight and performance-focused with scant regard to those luxury and comfort items that would add to the car’s weight, but detract from its performance. With the advent of the water-cooled 996, Porsche needed to find a way to continue the lineage of its motorsport-focused 964 and 993 RS models, and the answer was the GT3. Built on the main 996 production line, and hand-finished at the Motorsport Division at Weissach, GT3s were produced in sufficient numbers to enable the ‘Homologation’ necessary for Porsche to provide cars for a wide range of GT racing worldwide (including Le Mans) as well as a one-make ‘Carrera Cup’ series. The significant difference between the mainstream 996 range and the GT3 was the dry-sump Mezger engine, which used a completely different block from the rest of the range (as that in the GT1). Thanks to its titanium and plasma-nitride internals, it generated 100bhp per litre from its high-revving, high-compression, normally aspirated 3,600cc six-cylinder boxer engine. Performance was very impressive with 0-60 mph coming up in 4.8 seconds, and a top speed of 186 mph. The Mk1 GT3 was also Evo magazine’s Car of the Year in 1999, ‘seeing off, amongst others, the new Ferrari 360 Modena.’ Only 1,863 GT3s were manufactured by Porsche Motorsport Division and this example is one of the first generation cars featuring the legendary Mezger engine.
The fully documented service history has 11 entries, all by Porsche, at the following mileages: 3,213km, 4,203km, 4,626km, 8,312km, 11,423km, 16,836km, 19,532km, 23,345km, 23,051km, 26,816km, 30,500km (Service and new rear tyres fitted by Porsche Portsmouth). Supplied with its original books, tools, a current MOT valid until 12th June 2017, UK V5C and a recent invoice from Porsche Portsmouth, this car must be seen to be fully appreciated. The 996 GT3 Gen1 has been praised as ‘a true hero, differentiating itself from even future models of the same name thanks to being the last cars finished by hand at Porsche Motorsport Division. It offers a race-carfor-the-road experience in a thoroughly rounded, good-looking, package.’
This left-hand drive, road specification, 996 GT3 Generation1 was sold new in 2001 by Porsche MIZWA in Japan, and used sparingly for many years until purchased by the current owner. In those years, the car had been preserved in fantastic condition. The mileage is currently reading just 30,000 kilometres (18,600 miles). Factory specifications include leather competition seats, air conditioning, Becker CD Radio, and leather dash and door panels. As one would expect from such a low-mileage Porsche, the bodywork presents beautifully, and panel fit and paintwork are commensurate with an unmodified, original car that has been cherished all of its life. The Silver metallic paint retains an excellent shine, and the specification black interior is in superb condition.

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 70s. The middle of this decade was a period epitomised by the once maligned ‘impact or big bumper’ models, and when launched, the SC 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 taillights with PORSCHE capitalised across it, the ‘78 cars looked altogether sharper. 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! It used the same strong 5-speed 915-series gearbox as its predecessors, but was the first 911 to feature servoassisted brakes. The SC was offered as a Coupé, Targa, and, in late 1982 (for the 1983 model year), as a Cabriolet.
It appears that this UK car was specified with the Sport Group Package (UK), which added stiffer suspension, the rear spoiler, front rubber lip, and Black Fuchs wheels. It’s fitted with a Pioneer Radio and CD player, the period 16-inch Fuchs alloys have just been clothed in a set of new tyres, and the car’s preparation for sale was completed with a service and a fresh MOT. The history file contains old MOTs, all the invoices for the recent work, and historical invoices and service records indicating that this lovely SC has been cared for in the past. SCs in this condition are getting increasingly hard to find, and this carefully recommissioned example could be an easy way into Classic Porsche ownership.
However, as time passed and the 911 evolved further, SCs became less desirable and consequently cheaper, resulting in them becoming an accessible route into first-time Porsche ownership, and were therefore not necessarily looked after properly by their impecunious new owners. Today, with the benefit of hindsight, they are seen as properly engineered sports cars that drive well, with the classic look and feel of an era that is rightly back in fashion. The sparkling, left-hand drive, manual gearbox, 3.0-litre SC on offer here dates from 1979 and has recently been repainted in Slate Grey Metallic. The interior has also benefitted from considerable attention and has been re-trimmed in Marble Grey at a cost of £3,500. The engine didn’t miss out either; a top-end rebuild, new clutch, a full stainless steel exhaust and one or two mechanical items have all addressed at a well-known Porsche specialist at the cost of around £10,000. This car has covered 150,000 miles in the hands of five owners, and there is a letter in the history file from Porsche at Reading confirming that it’s a ‘Matching Numbers’ vehicle.

When the Porsche 964 was introduced in 1989, it was 85% different to the out-going 911. The design incorporated more integral bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, the most significant of which was the introduction of fourwheel drive. The displacement was now up to 3600cc and the engine produced a healthy 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.

This consignor, having driven the car over a short distance on a rough road, can testify that it’s largely devoid of rattles and squeaks. This is a lovely Targa in Guards Red with a red-piped linen interior that has covered a well-documented 109,000 miles.

Launched in 1976, the 924 was a complete departure by Porsche, in that it featured a front-mounted, water-cooled engine. The 1984cc power unit was essentially an Audi development tweaked by Porsche to produce 125bhp, which was then fed to a rear-mounted gearbox/transaxle, the advantage of this layout being that it gave the car near-perfect weight balance, which, in combination with the car’s natural poise, resulted in excellent handling. The new car was clothed in a pretty two-plus-two body shell, featuring a large glass hatchback that gives access to a decent-sized rear boot, making this a very practical sports car. Build quality was to the usual superb Porsche standards, and the 924 was an instant sales success, quickly tripling the company’s factory output, and allowing it to move the 911 upmarket. With their uncluttered looks, sure-footed handling, 125mph top speed, excellent practicality, and sheer value for money, 924s have secured their place as affordable classics. This remarkable 924 was supplied new in 1981 to Verona in Italy, to be enjoyed by its first owner, an Air Italia pilot who was abroad a lot of the time and only used his new Porsche for high days and holidays. The car continued to be used sparingly up until the mid-90s, when it was parked up in the family garage showing approximately 10,000km. There it was to remain until 2015, when it was decided to part-exchange the car against a new Fiat, as Italians are admirably loyal when it comes to cars built in their homeland. Being a Fiat dealer, the car was promptly moved on and purchased by a collector in Holland before later making its way to the UK. Having covered only a few hundred kilometres in the previous 20 years, the decision was taken to fully recommission this recently awoken little 924, and several thousand pounds were spent at Porsche specialist RSR, preparing the car to be returned to the road. This car is remarkably original and in excellent condition all round. Showing just 10,220km at the time of cataloguing, the car is truly a time-warp example.

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. 20 years on, it still looks modern – a truly timeless design. The 993 was launched in the autumn of 1994 and was claimed by the company to be significantly different (80% new they said) from the 964. 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 body 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 rear-wheel 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.

Registration: N214 NWU Chassis Number: WPOZZZ99ZTS381555 Engine Number: 63T52684 Estimate: £44,000 - £48,000
The car seen here is a 1996, 911 (993) Targa with the Tiptronic gearbox, and is an RHD, UK-supplied example, although it was initially shipped to Japan and registered there by its first owner. It spent the first 14 years of its life there, where it was fully maintained by Porsche, before returning to the UK in 2010, where again it was looked after by Porsche Centres and marque specialists, with a wealth of receipts to support this care. It has a complete service history, having covered just 55,000 documented miles, and was recently serviced on 3rd February 2016 at 54,561 miles. This 993 drives and performs as well as you’d expect from such a well-cared for car. The Targa roof creates a light and airy feel in what is already a very attractive cabin, and the unique benefit of the Targa concept is being able to offer a flavour of open-top motoring whilst retaining a good degree of structural rigidity. The 993-series 911 has a real and important place in the history of Porsche’s most famous model, and is regarded by many as a true modern classic; offering genuine usability with all the characterful quirkiness of earlier 911s. This delightful, low mileage example is a very fine specimen, patently cared for, and now ready to be used and enjoyed by a new custodian.
The 993 used essentially the same 3.6-litre engine as the 964, and could be specified with a manual or automatic (Tiptronic) gearbox. Tiptronic is a type of discrete automatic transmission developed by Porsche, and it operates as a normal automatic transmission, but it also allows the driver to override the automatic mode by moving the shift lever into a second (Tiptronic) shift gate equipped with two spring-loaded positions: ‘upshift’ and ‘downshift’. Once in this gate, the driver takes over most of the gear changing decisions ordinarily performed by the transmission’s computer. In a 993, the upshift and downshift operations can also be commanded by push buttons installed on the steering wheel. August 1995 heralded the introduction of the ‘Varioram’ induction system, helping to boost power to 285bhp, and enabling a top speed of close to 170mph with acceleration to match.

1989 heralded the first significant change in the shape of the 911, with the arrival of the Benjamin Dimson-designed ‘964’. Initially, it was only available in fourwheel drive form, marketed as the Carrera 4 (C4), however, the following year the two-wheel drive Carrera 2 (C2) was introduced. When the 964 was first brought to market, Porsche were keen to emphasise that, although it was patently still a 911, it was in fact 85% different from the outgoing model. The design featured more integrated bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, most significant of which was the availability 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. Careful attention to the aerodynamics reduced the drag coefficient down to 0.32, and with virtually zero lift, stability and road holding at high speeds were greatly improved. A new feature was the retractable spoiler, which automatically extended at 50mph and, in addition to seriously increasing downforce, also doubled the volume of cooling air fed into the engine compartment. Revised instrumentation featured a large set of warning lights that were tied into the car’s central warning system, adding to Porsche’s reputation for reliability. Fitted with a five-speed manual gearbox as standard, most variants were reputed to be capable of 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds, with a top speed of over 160mph. Such was its success that in the five years of production, over 62,000 left the factory, with 3,692 heading for UK shores.

When Porsche introduced the 996 in 1998, it heralded a big departure from the timeless 911 concept, for not only was it radically different to its predecessor, but for the first time a Porsche 911 was water-cooled. The changes were driven by the market, which had become more demanding in terms of refinement and power, and those same principles still apply some 20 years later. The 996’s body styling was totally new, and the interior was redesigned to give the venerable 911 a new lease of life. As is the way of things, in 2002 the facelift model arrived, incorporating headlight and bumper changes and an improved aero package. These subtle changes further enhanced what has been described as the ‘first truly modern 911 with grand tourer and supercar performance’. Offered here is a stunning Porsche 996 Carrera 2, finished in Arctic Silver with just 8,974 miles from new. I was initially purchased by Mr R. Madhvani from HR Owen on 1st March 2002, with our vendor being just the second owner. The colour combination is absolutely classic, with the sleek Silver exterior being nicely balanced by the soft ruffled black leather interior. The full specification includes 18-inch Carrera wheels, electric seats, rear park assist, aluminium gear lever and handbrake lever and stainless steel entrance panels. It is fitted with a Bose highend sound system, and Porsche Communications management. ‘Tiptronic S’ transmission and a fitted Tracker complete the inventory of this high specification stunner. The history file is more than comprehensive, with details of its cherished life and full Porsche service history, including a number of invoices and all its earlier MOT Certificates corroborating the low mileage. Low mileage Porsches are the ‘perfect storm’ for investment potential, with the 996 gathering inertia, and this delightful car is definitely in that category.

1989 heralded the first significant change in the shape of the 911, with the arrival of the Benjamin Dimson-designed ‘964’. Initially, it was only available in fourwheel drive form, marketed as the Carrera 4 (C4), however, the following year, the two-wheel drive Carrera 2 (C2) was introduced. When the 964 was first brought to market, Porsche were keen to emphasise that, although it was patently still a 911, it was in fact 85% different from the outgoing model. The design featured more integrated bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, most significant of which was the availability 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. Careful attention to the aerodynamics reduced the drag coefficient down to 0.32, and, with virtually zero lift, stability and road holding at high-speeds were greatly improved. A new feature was the retractable spoiler, which automatically extended at 50 mph, and, in addition to seriously increasing down force, also doubled the volume of cooling air fed into the engine compartment. Revised instrumentation featured a large set of warning lights that were tied into the car’s central warning system, adding to Porsche’s reputation for reliability. Fitted with a five-speed manual gearbox as standard, most variants were reputed to be capable of 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds, with a top speed of over 160mph. Such was its success that in the five years of production, over 62,000 left the factory, with 3,692 heading for UK shores.
It has covered just 106,500 miles, and is accompanied by its original service book pack with the details of its full service history by Porsche specialists, and a file stuffed full of invoices/MOTs, etc. In October 2007 (19,000 miles ago) it had a top-end engine rebuild, with head studs, piston rings etc., and over the last few years the car has been brought up to first-class condition with a significant amount of major mechanical and cosmetic work (details on the website or below). The four-wheel drive 964 Carrera is without doubt the most sought after model of this period with the exception of the RS, which is of course in an entirely different price bracket, and this bright red, manual, right-hand drive, incredibly well-maintained example at this guide could well prove to be a sound investment.
This delightful 964 Carrera 4 Coupé is a four-wheel drive, manual, C16 UK car in right-hand drive, and was supplied new by Porsche Sutton Coldfield in August 1991 (J reg.). Finished in the classic combination of Guards Red with red-piped black leather sports seats and matador red carpets, this well-spec’d car is fitted with a sunroof, rear wiper, air-conditioning, sport seats, top-tinted windscreen, 3rd brake light, tear drop door mirrors, over carpets and genuine 17-inch ‘Carrera Cup’ alloy wheels with colour crested centres.

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. The 911 (996) Turbo offers genuine supercar performance in a compact and practical package. 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 although it went out of production in 2005, in real terms it’s still as quick as anything on the road. Water-cooling, a first for Porsche, allowed an engine re-design that included four valves per cylinder, enabling higher power outputs to be achieved with much better fuel economy. Although the Turbo is water-cooled, it’s not the same engine as in the regular 996. The 3.6-litre Mezger engine in the Turbo can trace its ancestry back to the old air-cooled units and is directly related, not only to the 996 GT3, but also the GT1 racer with 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 Mark 2, also saw body revisions that increased stiffness, improving handling and crash safety. In 2002, the Turbo was offered with an ‘X50’ option, which included larger turbochargers (K24) and intercoolers, a revised ECU and exhaust which raised output to 450 horsepower. Other features introduced in 2002 were a glove box, centre-mounted cupholders, an optional Bose stereo and rain-sensing wipers. 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; the ride is taut but retains enough suppleness for long journeys to remain comfortable, and, with the roof down, the open road beckons. 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. This prime example, with an MOT until August 2017, was delivered new through the Porsche Centre Swindon on 16th October 2002 with the following factory options, including the all-important X50 pack; aluminium Tiptronic shifter and instrument dials, oval tailpipes and leather-trimmed vents. Presenting beautifully today with an indicated mileage of just under 59,500 and supplied with a matching hard top in Polar Silver, the car has been serviced at the following intervals: 20/12/2004 Porsche Centre Glasgow 3,842 miles 07/03/2006 Porsche Centre Silverstone 13,041 miles 19/12/2006 Porsche Centre Silverstone 24,179 miles 13/10/2011 RSJ Sportscars Porsche Specialist, Slough 35,543 miles 19/09/2013 RSJ Sportscars Porsche Specialist, Slough 45,000 miles 05/10/2016 Steve Bull Porsche Specialist 59,785 miles Brake fluid changes were made at 13,041, 38,543 and 45,000 miles respectively.

colour of Night Blue, Grey leather seats were ‘Connolised’, and various other maintenance and detail items were attended to with the intention of keeping the car in good all-round condition. In recent times it has been used less frequently, with just 3,000km covered in the last three years, but it has been freshly MOT’d (valid until September 2017), and we are told the car is running beautifully. It’s hard to credit that it has 293km under its belt. This car is a true testament to the durability, build quality and workmanship of Porsche. An excellent usable example, be it to pop to the shops or to tackle continental tours, a real ‘do-all’ motorcar, and one we are sure, with correct maintenance, will last another 293,000km.
This left-hand drive, manual, Carrera 4 Coupé has been owned by our vendor for twenty-five years. It was purchased in Germany whilst the owner worked there, and both he and the car would remain in Germany until 2000, when he returned to the UK, and, reluctant to part from his beloved 911, brought it with him and registered it here. The car has been much loved and enjoyed, showing 293,000kms (approx. 182,000 miles) on the clock. Maintenance records accompany the car, showing its continued use with bills from Charles Ivey, AFN Chiswick, and RGA Porsche Specialists. In 2011, it was refurbished with a professional respray in its original

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. 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds, 0-100mph 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 long production periods, focusing on factors such as functionality, performance and design, and so, naturally, during the 6-year production run of the 3.2 Carrera, many options and iterations were available for customers when ordering their new 911. Dating from 1989, this fabulous Cabriolet is one of the last of the 3.2 Carreras. Supplied originally by Charles Follett in London, it’s an original C16, UK specification, with matching numbers. It’s a sports model with the G50 manual gearbox, sports seats, and electric windows and mirrors. This car has been extremely well looked after and has an excellent service history. Recently professionally repainted in Baltic Blue Metallic, its already superb exterior finish is enhanced by a new Dark Blue electric soft top, and complemented by a full Marble Grey interior and period correct, black centred, Fuchs alloys. It has covered 126,000 miles and spent 10 years with one owner who used the same specialist for all the car’s requirements for a number of years. Consequently, there is a complete set of invoices and documents (at least 30 pages), detailing its maintenance and service records. The car is also accompanied by its original service manuals in the Porsche leather folder, as well as the old Warranty Document, some older MOTs, and the new 12 months’ MOT recently carried out. This is a great opportunity to own a remarkably pretty, unmolested, right-hand drive, UK Carrera Cabriolet with an excellent service history.

1990 PORSCHE 964 3.6 TIPTRONIC CABRIOLET
Following the iconic silhouette of the original 911 was no mean task, but the 964 managed it with aplomb. When introduced in 1989, despite initial appearances, it was 85% different to the out-going 911. The design incorporated integral bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, the most significant of which was the introduction of four-wheel drive. Engine capacity was now up to 3600cc producing 250bhp, and power steering and ABS brakes were now fitted as standard. The torsion bar rear suspension was replaced with coil springs and shock absorbers. This C16 UK specified, right-hand drive, Tiptronic, 964 Cabriolet was first registered in 1990 in Germany, and was imported into the UK in 1996. Finished in the classic colour combination of Guards Red with a full Black leather interior, this looks in splendid shape and wears its 109,000 miles well; possibly as a result of being ‘mollycoddled’ as part of a small private Porsche collection. The engine was rebuilt by noted Porsche specialist Steve Bull in 2009 at 93,648 miles. A new hood and tonneau were recently fitted, and the car is supplied with both sets of keys, handbooks and a large receipted history file.

1998 PORSCHE 911 (996) CARRERA 2
Registration: D12 AGM Chassis Number: WPOZZZ99ZWS603810 Engine Number: 66W04433 Estimate: No Reserve
The Porsche 996 was first introduced in 1997, and was the first water-cooled 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, 300bhp 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.’ D12 AGM was supplied new on the 27th January 1998 to Glen Glasgow, the main Porsche dealer in this area. The car is finished in Arctic Silver (X1X1). The seating and matching door cards are finished in Boxster Red, and are described as ‘Full Special Leather’. From new, the car was specified with: Sports Package, a headlight cleaning unit, cassette storage, a sound system and an on-board computer. The car still rolls on its 18-inch Turbo Twist Alloy Wheels, and comes with a fully comprehensive service record and associated handbooks. Most recently the car has had new exhaust downpipes, a new starter motor, water pump and new wheel bearings along with the recent service in September. This 996 surely is a great contender for someone looking to get into Porsche ownership, and in this super condition with a healthy service history, this Carrera 2 would give peace of mind to any prospective buyer.

The line-up for the 1972-73 Porsche 911 range consisted of the entry level ‘T’, the mid-range ‘E’ and the top specification ‘S’. All were fitted with the new 2,341cc engine in various levels of tune. Both the 911 E and the 911 S had mechanical fuel injection (MFI), giving 165bhp and 190bhp respectively. The transmission was also redesigned to handle the extra power; the dog-leg first gear was dropped and this new gearbox was designated, internally, the 915. For the 1972 models, Porsche moved the engine oil tank forward to sit in front of the rear wheel line, as part of a number of small changes designed to improve the front/rear weight distribution and reduce the notorious ‘pendulum effect’. This 1973, left-hand drive, 911 ‘E’ Targa was imported by the current owner in 2013 from the sunny state of Florida, USA. He intended to restore the car himself, however too many projects and not enough time have meant the car has remained untouched. Not much is known of its early life in America, but there is a letter from HMRC showing that all taxes and duties have been paid. In addition, there is a Florida Certificate of Title supplied with the car. Offered without reserve and sold strictly as seen, the car needs a complete restoration. The front and rear wings, boot lid, doors and replacement bonnet are all included. In addition, the car comes with a genuine 911 T 2.4-litre engine from 1973, but this is obviously not the original unit. An ideal project for the keen restorer, we would strongly advise pre-sale viewings to establish an accurate evaluation of this 911 E. Prospective bidders are welcome to contact the office for further details.

2009 PORSCHE 911 997 CARRERA CONVERTIBLE 4S PDK
Registration: SG59XFT Chassis Number: WPOZZZ99ZAS745892 Engine Number: A03613 Estimate: £45,500 - £47,500
The Porsche 911 (997) Carrera 4S just oozes capability. It’s not a car that needs to shout about its abilities, instead providing the well-informed driver with a purposeful, no-nonsense and pragmatic approach to tackling wet roads. When the heavens open, or you have a dark and unfamiliar journey ahead of you and you need all the help you can get, there aren’t many sports cars that can get anywhere near a Porsche 911 Carrera 4S with its 385bhp on tap, a top speed of just under 180 mph and Porsche’s dual-clutch transmission. The double-clutch transmission combined the best features of a manual gearbox with those of an automatic; honed on the race track, it could shift through seven speeds electrohydraulically in a seamless fashion and became a massive hit globally. We are informed by the vendor that SG59 XFT, when supplied new, cost a substantial £89,700, including £7,900 for a significant proportion of the Options List. We understand that the car fires at the first turn of the key and settles to a smooth idle, with all gauges showing nominal readings. The brakes are effective and bite when prompted, and all suspension bushes and springs are squeak and rattle free. This lovely Porsche has undoubtedly lived a cosseted existence. Mechanically, this car appears equally healthy and there is no other mechanical device that can quite match the distinctive howl of one of these engines in full song. Externally, the Basalt Black bodywork is beautifully straight, the gloss of its paintwork is deep, and the shut lines and gaps are reassuringly symmetrical and narrow. Likewise, the black interior is a superb place to be and is complimented by an outstanding black power hood mechanism that is reported to work perfectly. We are informed by the vendor that the car is freshly MOT’d, has an excellent service history and is accompanied by the supplying dealer’s hand pack, complete with all original paperwork and booklets. The odometer shows just 28,856 miles. These modern 911s are so much more than a means of transport, each drive is an event in itself.

BIDDER REGISTRATION
You can bid at auction either in person by attending the sale, by telephone, by leaving a commission bid or live online. To meet current legislative requirements, you will need to provide proof of identification in the form of a passport or driving licence and a recent utility bill as proof of address. When submitting forms in absentia, please ensure they reach us no later than 48 hours before the auction is due to take place.
HOW FAST WILL THE AUCTIONEER GO?
The auctioneer will aim to sell approximately 90 lots of automobilia, watches and lifestyle per hour and 20 vehicles per hour.
BIDDING AT THE SALE If you are planning to attend the sale in person, please complete the relevant Bidder Registration Form. On production of this form you will be assigned a paddle number. Please note that entry to the auction only is on presentation of this sale catalogue, which admits two.
ONLINE BIDDING
Silverstone Auctions has partnered with proxibid.com to allow you to bid live on sale day from anywhere. Registration for internet bidding is done directly on their website. We advise that you register with them at least 48 hours before a sale to allow sufficient time for your registration to be approved. Using these providers carries an additional buyer’s premium charge of 1% for cars and 3% for automobilia/lifestyle and watches.
TELEPHONE BIDDING** Should you be unable to attend the auction on sale day, telephone bidding will still allow you to bid live. On the day of the sale, a member of Silverstone Auctions will contact you, usually a few lots prior to your selected lots and will guide you through the process. It is important that you provide us with alternative contact numbers to ensure that we are able to contact you on the day. You may wish to leave a commission bid to be used in the event that we are unable to contact you. This, however, is entirely optional.
CATALOGUES Catalogues can be purchased online or by contacting our catalogue subscription department on +44 (0)1926 691 141. Please ensure that you bring your catalogue to the sale as entry is by catalogue only. Whilst your Silverstone Auctions Catalogue admits two persons to the viewing day(s) and the sale day please refer to any specific Admission tickets that maybe required to enter the Event. Further copies of the catalogue can be purchased at the Auction.
WARRANTIES All lots are sold on an ‘as seen’ basis. You may wish to bring a competent mechanic with you to inspect any Motor Vehicles on your behalf. The catalogue will describe the lots to the best of our ability on information supplied. You should, however, satisfy yourself as to the condition, age, and integrity of any lot prior to bidding as no warranties whatsoever are given in relation to any lot. Once the auctioneer drops the hammer, a contract is made and you are obligated to proceed with the purchase. It is therefore vital that you are satisfied with the condition of the lot you intend to bid upon before doing so.
CHARGES
Like the vast majority of auctioneers, Silverstone Auctions Limited charge what is known as a buyer’s premium. Our standard buyer’s premium charges are 12.5% of the hammer price on motor vehicles (cars and motorcycles) and 20% of the hammer price for watches, automobila and lifestyle items. Buyer’s premium is subject to VAT at the prevailing rate on the day of the auction.
PAYMENT Full payment for all lots must be made to SAL by the next working day after the sale. Payment can only be accepted in GBP. For security reasons, payments by Debit or Credit card (VISA/Mastercard) will only be accepted where the cardholder is present. Credit Card Payments are subject to a 1.76% surcharge. Business debit and credit cards are subject to a 2% surcharge. There is a floor cash limit of £5,000. Items cannot be removed until paid for.

COMMISSION BIDDING**
VAT
If you think you might not be contactable on the day of the sale, you may leave with us a commission bid. To submit a commission bid, please complete our Telephone/ Commission Bidder Registration form indicating, for each lot you wish to bid on, the maximum amount you are willing to bid up to (excluding commission and VAT). We will execute your bid as low as possible on your behalf.
VAT at the prevailing rate will be added to the Buyer’s premium which will be invoiced on a VAT inclusive basis. If you have any questions with regard to payment, please contact our administration department.
** There is no charge for the telephone and commission bidding service.

BUYING GUIDE
The golden rule for anyone hoping to buy at auction is to thoroughly inspect the lot you are interested in before bidding, as no warranty or guarantee is given with anything that is sold. For this reason the auction centre is open for viewing prior to each Auction (please check times). All bids are final and irrevocable.
COLLECTION All purchases are at the buyer’s risk from the fall of the hammer. You should therefore arrange insurance and removal of the lot. For details of when lots need to be collected and delivery options see ‘Key Sale Information’ on the following page.

TERMS & CONDITIONS GENERAL The following Terms (“Terms”) together with such other terms, conditions and notices as may be set out in any relevant catalogue apply to all sales by Silverstone Auctions Limited (“SAL”) at auction or within 14 days after the auction. No alteration to the Terms will be binding unless accepted by SAL in writing. The Terms are subject to amendment by SAL provided it is reasonable for it to do so by the posting of notices or by oral announcement made by the Auctioneer prior to or during the sale. Nothing in the Terms shall affect the statutory rights of a consumer. Additional information applicable to the Auction may be set out in the Catalogue for the Sale, in an insert in the Catalogue and/or in a notice displayed at the Auctions and you should read them as well. Announcements affecting the Auction may also be given out orally before and during the Auction without prior written notice. You should be alert to this possibility of changes especially if bidding by telephone and ask in advance of bidding if there have been any. SAL acts solely for and in the interests of the Seller. SAL’s job is to sell the Lot at the highest price obtainable at the Auction to a Buyer. SAL does not act for Buyers in this role and does not give advice to Buyers. When SAL or its employees makes statements about a Lot it is doing so on behalf of the Seller of the Lot. Buyers who are themselves not expert in the Lots are strongly advised to seek and obtain independent advice on the Lots and their value before bidding for them. DEFINITIONS 1. In these Terms: 1.1 “Auction” means the auction sale in respect of which a Lot is consigned for sale. 1.2 “Auctioneer” means the representative of SAL conducting the Auction. 1.3 “Automobilia” means any memorabilia including but not limited to trophies, badges, programmes, models, prints and other collectables. 1.4 “Buyer” means the only person whose bid is accepted by SAL to conclude the contract for the purchase of a Lot. 1.5 “Buyer’s Premium” means the amount payable by the Buyer to SAL equal to 12.5%+VAT of the Hammer Price on Motor Vehicles and 20%+VAT of the Hammer Price for Watches, Automobilia and Lifestyle goods. 1.6 “Catalogue” the catalogue relating to the relevant Auction includes any advertisement, brochure, estimate, price list or other publication or webpage relating to one or more Lots. 1.7 “Contract” means the agreement to be completed by the Seller relating to the proposed sale of each separate Lot at the Auction. 1.8 “Entry Fee” means the fee paid by the seller to enter an item into auction. 1.9 “Expenses” in relation to the sale of any Lot means SAL’s charges and expenses payable by the Seller in addition to the Seller’s Commission including insurance, storage, illustrations, auction Entry Fee, cleaning costs, photography costs, catalogue costs, special advertising, packing and freight of that Lot and any VAT thereon. 1.10 “Hammer Price” means the price in pounds sterling at which a Lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the Buyer. 1.11 “Lot” means any item(s) consigned to SAL with the view to its or their sale at Auction. 1.12 “Motor Vehicle” means any car or motorbike included or proposed to be included in a sale of motor vehicles. 1.13 “Purchase Price” means the Hammer Price together with the Buyer’s Premium and any additional charges due plus VAT. 1.14 “Reserve” means the minimum Hammer Price agreed between SAL and the Seller at which a Lot may be sold. 1.15 “Sale Proceeds” means the net amount due to the Seller being the Hammer Price less the Seller’s Commission and VAT, Expenses and any other amount due to SAL from the Seller. 1.16 “Seller” means the person who offers the Lot for sale, whether as agent or principal. 1.17 “Seller’s Commission” shall have the meaning given in clause 10. 1.18 “VAT” means Value Added Tax applicable at the prevailing rate from time to time. 1.19 “Working Day” means any day (other than a Saturday and Sunday) at which clearing banks in the city of London are open for the transaction of normal sterling banking business.

2. Agent SAL sells as agent for the Seller (except where SAL is selling as principal, which SAL will disclose in the Catalogue or otherwise in the Auction). The Contract for the sale of a Lot is between the Seller and the Buyer. SAL shall not be liable for any act or default by the Seller (except where selling as principal) or the Buyer. 3. Discretion 3.1 SAL has the right as its sole discretion to refuse any bid, to divide any Lot, to combine two or more Lots, to withdraw any Lot and, in the case of dispute, to put any Lot up for Auction again. 3.2 If SAL is notified about the Seller’s alleged breach of any of the Terms before it has remitted the Sale Proceeds to the Seller, it may at its sole discretion withhold payment until that dispute is resolved. SAL may, however, deduct any sums that are due to it from the sum held. 4. Loss or injury SAL shall be under no liability for any injury, damage or loss sustained by any person while on SAL’s premises (including any premises where a sale may be conducted or where a Lot, or part of a Lot, may be on view from time to time) except for death or personal injury, damage or loss caused by the negligence of or other breach of duty by SAL, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to SAL. 5. Lots 5.1 The Catalogue contains details about each Lot. The description printed in the Catalogue is given on behalf of the Seller, and may contain SAL’s opinion about the Lot, but in any event is not a contractual representation or warranty by SAL. 5.2 Photographs, illustrations and diagrams contained in the Catalogue are for identification purposes only. They may not show the true condition and colour (which may be inaccurately reproduced) of the Lot. 5.3 Lots are available for inspection prior to the Sale and it is for any potential bidder to satisfy themselves as to each and every aspect of a Lot, including its authorship, condition, provenance, history, background, authenticity, style, period, age, suitability, quality, roadworthiness (if relevant), origin, value and estimated selling price (including the Hammer Price). 5.4 Each Lot is sold by its respective Seller to the Buyer. Lots are sold to the Buyer on an “as is” basis, with all faults and imperfections. 5.5 The actual condition of a Lot may not be as good as its outward appearance suggests. In particular parts may have been replaced or renewed and those parts may not be authentic or of ‘Merchantable Quality’. The inside of a Lot may not be visible where, for example, it is covered by upholstery or material, and may not be original or may be damaged, have been damaged or poorly repaired. Given the age of some Lots, no assumption should be made with regard to any aspect of their condition. 5.6 Any person who physically interferes with, scratches or damages the Lot in any way (at, before or after the Auction) will be held liable for the loss so caused. 5.7 The Seller is responsible for delivering the Lot in a presentable and saleable condition. If additional cleaning is required it will be charged for by SAL to the Seller as an Expense. 5.8 If a Lot is not sold at Auction, SAL will for the next 14 days be entitled exclusively to negotiate a sale of the Lot on terms agreed with the Seller and as Seller’s agent, and if successful will be entitled to charge the Seller’s Commission and Expenses. 5.9.1 The Seller gives SAL the full and absolute right to photograph and illustrate any Lot placed in its hand for sale, and to use such photographs and illustrations as are provided by the Seller at any time at its absolute discretion (whether or not in connection with the Auction), with indemnity against copyright infringement. 5.9.2 The copyright in all written matter and illustrations relating to Lots shall remain at all times the absolute property of SAL, and any person wishing to use such materials, or any part of them, may only do so with the prior written consent of SAL. 6. Alterations and Estimates 6.1 Estimates and descriptions may be amended at SAL’s discretion from time to time by notice given orally or in writing before or during an Auction. 6.2 The Lot is available for inspection and any potential bidder must form their own opinion in relation to it. You are strongly advised to examine any Lot or have it examined by a specialist or engineer on your behalf before the Auction.
www. s i l ve rsto n e a u ct i o n s . c o m
6.3 SAL gives no warranty or representation as to the anticipated or likely selling price of any Lot. Any estimate given, whether written or oral and whether or not printed in any Catalogue, as to the estimated selling price of any Lot, is a statement of opinion only and may be subject to revision from time to time at SAL’s sole discretion and should not be relied upon as an indication of the actual selling price. 6.4 SAL shall not be liable to the Seller for any error or misstatement in or omission from the description of any lot in any Catalogue where SAL has: 6.4.1 been provided with such description by the Seller or any person on his behalf; or 6.4.2 provided the Seller with a copy of such description prior to publication of the Catalogue and neither the Seller nor any person on his behalf has notified SAL in writing within 7 days of any error or misstatement in or omission from the description. 6.5 SAL has no duty to the Seller or the Buyer to investigate the accuracy of the description of any Lot provided by or on behalf of the Seller. 7. Warranty by the Seller 7.1 The Seller warrants to the Buyer and to SAL that: 7.1.1 The Seller is the owner of the Lot or is properly authorised to sell the Lot by the owner, and is able to sell the Lot with full title guarantee free from all encumbrances and third party claims and in particular that there is no outstanding finance affecting the Lot. If the car is subject to finance the amount outstanding must be confirmed prior to consignment and sale. 7.1.2 The description of the Lot in the Catalogue is to the best of the Seller’s knowledge accurate and not misleading. The Seller has notified (or will before the Auction notify) SAL in writing of any material alterations to the Lot of which the Seller is aware and of any concerns expressed by third parties in relation to the authenticity, provenance, origin, age, condition or quality of the Lot and has provided SAL with all such information in the Seller’s possession or control. 7.1.3 If the Lot is a road going Motor Vehicle, it may lawfully be used on the public road and complies with all statutory provisions and that there is in force a test certificate required by law in relation to such use; OR ALTERNATIVELY the Seller has notified SAL in writing that the Motor Vehicle may not lawfully be used on the public road. 7.1.4 The Seller shall compensate SAL and the Buyer in full for all losses, expenses and other costs which are caused by the Seller’s breach of any obligation of the Seller under the Terms. 7.1.5 Where the vehicle is not registered in the UK, the seller shall be responsible for completing the NOVA application within 14 days or the car arriving in the UK and before the vehicle arrives at the auction for sale. 8. Vehicle Registration Numbers 8.1 If the Seller wishes to sell the Motor Vehicle but to retain the right to the registration number of the Motor Vehicle it is the Seller’s Responsibility to notify SAL in writing. 8.2 It shall be the Seller’s Responsibility to take all necessary steps to ensure that the current vehicle registration number is retained and that a new number is allocated prior to the Motor Vehicle being sold at the Auction. 9. Bidding and Reserves 9.1 Admission to the Auction requires the purchase of a Catalogue which must be presented at the entrance to the Auction. SAL do not accept bids from any person who has not completed and submitted a registration form. 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. Commission and Expenses 10.1 SAL shall be entitled to deduct from the Hammer Price and retain
www. si l ve rsto n e a uct ions . c om
an amount equal to 5% of the Hammer Price for vehicles and 15% for watches, automobilia and lifestyle goods or such other sum agreed by SAL in writing (“Seller’s Commission”) plus VAT together with Expenses and any other sums due from the Seller to SAL. 10.2 The Seller acknowledges SAL’s right to retain the Buyer’s Premium payable by the Buyer. 11. Insurance 11.1 Only on payment of the Purchase Price in cleared funds shall title in the Lot pass from the Seller to the Buyer. However, the risk in the Lot passes to the Buyer on the fall of the hammer. It is therefore, the responsibility of the Seller to insure the Lot before the hammer falls and the responsibility of the Buyer to insure the Lot after the hammer falls. 11.2 SAL will not be responsible for any damage to or the loss or destruction of a Lot unless caused by the negligence of or other breach of duty by SAL, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to SAL and the Seller shall compensate SAL in full in respect of all other claims and proceedings brought against SAL in respect of any loss or damage to or destruction of the Lot. 11.3 SAL will not be liable for any injury, loss or damage caused by any Lot or by the Seller’s negligence of SAL, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to SAL. The Seller shall compensate SAL in full in respect of all claims and proceedings brought against SAL in respect of injury, loss or damage caused by any Lot or by the Seller’s negligence or breach of any obligation under the Terms. 12. Payment of Sale Proceeds 12.1 Subject to SAL’s right of retention under Clause 3.2 and other provisions of this Clause 12, SAL shall pay the Sale Proceeds to the Seller not later than 14 Working Days after the Auction provided that the Purchase Price has been received in full by SAL. Unless an alternative method of payment has been agreed by SAL in writing, payment shall be made by telegraphic transfer. In the event of an unsettled hire purchase, finance agreement or any other charge or lien affecting the Lot SAL reserves the right to settle the amount due of such charges not exceeding the Sale Proceeds and if the Sale Proceeds are less than the charges outstanding the Seller will be responsible for the settlement of the balance forthwith. 12.2 If the Purchase Price has not been received in full by SAL within the time specified in clause 12.1 SAL will pay the Sale Proceeds to the Seller within seven Working Days from when the Purchase Price is received in cleared funds from the Buyer. 12.3 In respect of road registered Motor Vehicles, SAL reserves the right not to remit the Sale Proceeds to the Seller unless the Seller has deposited with SAL the registration document of the Motor Vehicle, and any other documents relating to the Motor Vehicle in the Seller’s possession or control which he agreed with SAL to supply. 12.4 If the Buyer fails to pay the Purchase Price within 28 days of the Auction, SAL will notify the Seller who may instruct SAL as to the appropriate course of action. SAL may endeavour to assist the Seller but SAL shall be under no obligation to do so, and shall not be under any obligation to institute proceedings in its own name. 12.5 In the absence of any written instructions from the Seller to SAL within 7 days of SAL having notified the Seller under clause 12.4 SAL shall be entitled to take any of the actions set out in clause 19. 12.6 Any monies recovered by and paid to SAL as a consequences of SAL taking one or more of the steps referred to in clause 19 shall be applied to the payment of: 12.6.1 legal or other costs incurred by SAL in connection with such steps; 12.6.2 expenses; 12.6.3 the Buyer’s Premium and the Seller’s Commission on the sale of the Lot; 12.6.4 any balance remaining shall be paid to SAL to the Seller (or, if appropriate, the Buyer). If there shall be a shortfall any such shortfall shall be made good by the Seller to SAL on demand. 12.7 If within 7 days after receipt of the notice referred to in clause 12.5 the Seller informs SAL that he wishes for re-delivery of the Lot, he shall be entitled to do so but only upon prior payment of all Expenses and all legal and other costs reasonably incurred by SAL so as to keep SAL fully recompensed. 13. Withdrawal Fees 13.1 The Seller may not withdraw the Lot from the Auction. If SAL is unable to sell the Lot at the Auction due to action or interference by the Seller, the Seller shall be liable to pay SAL 15% of the estimated value of the Lot plus VAT thereon together with Expenses. The estimated value shall be the mid value estimated in the Catalogue. 14. Removal and Storage

The Buyer 15.1 The Buyer shall be the highest bidder at the Hammer Price.
