Description
Selling my Porsche 911, 997 Turbo with Mezger engine and manual transmission. I had this car for about 4 years and I loved it every minute, but I need the money for the re-mortgage of my house.
Never had any issue and I always had good care of it, allowing the gearbox to warm up before going on throttle, regular services in Porsche specialist and kept in a garage.
This car is a proper beast, the 480hp engine with the 4WD really pulls you out of the corners, and it handles superb! But it is also smooth for normal cruising and very comfortable for long drives. The variable vane turbos are fantastic as there's plenty of torque at the throttle pick up with very low turbo lag.
And it definitely is a blessing not having to worry about the issues that the non-turbo versions have like the bore scoring or the IMS bearing...
Some details:
- Considered generation 1.5, meaning that it has the all mighty Mezger engine of the Gen 1, but with the more modern interior and PCM of the Gen 2. Only 50 cars in this spec came to the UK.
- Bodywork and mechanicals are in great condition.
- Fully standard, no modifications, full service history from Porsche specialists.
- Recent intermediate service
- New tyres fitted 10k miles ago, plenty of tread left.
- New front right CV joint boots.
- New wastegate actuator rod.
- MOT until July 2026.
- New battery, and added a bluetooth battery monitoring device that connects to any phone.
- Comes with 2 keys
- The only bad things are that the TPMS sensors and one of the exhaust lambda sensors need replacing, and the control for the rear wing is not working.
Feel free to give me a ring if you are interested!
