Description
Welcome to the sale of my lovely Porsche 996 Carrera 2.2 face lift with the 6 speed manual gearbox coupled to the 3.6 flat 6 engine. The much favoured model and combination by all who want that real exciting analogue car and driver experience, and which has only covered 68000 miles.
I spent a lot of time searching for the right car and eventually came across this one.
Presented in Meridian Silver and complimented with the extended black leather interior ( to the dash and door cards ) with Porsche crest embossed head rests on the sports hard back seats. The car has the original stereo system still fitted but is also fitted with a parrot blue tooth phone connectivity for hands free facility.
Being the face lift model, it also has the front door speakers, a glove box and the all important cup holders. The door shuts are graced with stainless steel Carrera kick plates, and it rides on the upgraded 18 inch Carrera alloys wearing Pirelli P7 Porsche n rated tyres, drives beautifully and has the added advantage of having the factory fitted rear parking sensors.
The previous elderly owner, owned this car for 14 years did very little mileage and kept it garaged (as I do) and never took it out unless the sun was shining.
Having been carefully looked after and maintained, its in excellent condition for its age. The soft top is in good condition and working order and has the glass heated rear window. Everything works on the car as it should do. it also comes with a wind deflector and colour coded hard top.
The service history is as follows;

Porsche specialist2017@62425
Porsche specialist2021@65243 plus also over 5k spent on a top end engine strip down and rebuild.
Porsche specialist 2024@67027
From 2010 the car has covered very little mileage and I also have all the mot's going back over the past 15 years plus a file with invoices presented to me by the previous owner.
It was last serviced in July 2024 along with a brake fluid change, and is MOT'D until the 25th of January 2026.
I bought this car with the intention of keeping it long term but unfortunately due to the fact that my wife wont drive it because its a manual, and I've done less than a 1000 miles in it in the last year, sadly its pointless keeping it as it needs to be driven and enjoyed. It is also ULEZ COMPLIANT.
Sensible offers considered.
