The 993 generation of the Porsche 911 was the final iteration of more than 30 years of development of the iconic air-cooled flat-six engine, for which the 911 is so famous. The 993 drove just as well as it looked, being the first 911 with a modern multi-link rear suspension and a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. With these features, the 993 was able to reach 0-60 mph time of around five seconds, and a top speed of around 170mph. The 993 was known for its unique style and design. It featured all-new headlights that were integrated into the body, giving it a more modern look. It also featured a curved windscreen and a redesigned rear spoiler, which improved both aerodynamics and aesthetics.

Our vendor purchased this example in 2007 and has enjoyed many great trips to Le Mans with friends but with the car now seeing less and less use, he has decided to sell it. Finished in beautiful Iris Blue metallic with a grey interior and the all-important six-speed manual gearbox, this 993 presents well overall. The history file is particularly impressive, with a record of circa 20 services dating all the way back to 1994 as well as supporting invoices for various maintenance jobs, such as new rocker covers, clutch and flywheel in 2007, new steering rack in 2010, uprated aluminium cam covers in 2013, DAB radio in 2014, new alternator in 2015, new Bilstein suspension and front fog light brake duct conversion in 2016, a brake system service in 2020 and various other items since then. This represents excellent value in the 993 market and is ready to be enjoyed right away or be taken to the next level if the next owner so wishes. Supplied to auction with a V5C registration document, MoT test certificate and earlier mentioned history file containing invoices and owner's books and service book etc. This example was specified with some very nice factory options, such as, 220 - locking differential, 224 - active brake diff, 383 and 387- sport seats, 398 - 17” cup design wheels, 573 - air con and 650 - electric sunroof.
