An exceptionally nice and original 2004 Porsche 911 Targa, 6 speed manual. This 2nd generation 996 with a 3.6 litre engine is a C16, UK model that’s been thoughtfully specified to a high standard with bespoke and costly features which, make this 996.2 very desirable. There were over 75,000 996 coupes manufactured compared to just 5,000 Targa's, so it's relatively rare in comparison however, it’s the colour combination and spec list that make this car a rare find. The spec codes show exterior paint to sample in Midnight Blue metallic, a special order cream leather interior, Porsche crested seats, (heated & electric), contrasting black dashboard and steering wheel, various aluminium finishes, and matching silver instrument dial faces. The exterior and interior are in lovely, original condition, the 18in alloys are unmarked, they give the car a great look and are wrapped in matching Michelin tyres- the same upgraded brand specified from new. 56,000 genuine miles, most of the mileage was covered before June 2008, this was when the current registered keeper took ownership. It’s been a nice weather/weekend car during current ownership, covering less than 10,000 miles in 17 years! It’s been stored in a garage when not in use, it’s damage-free with original paint, and there’s no rust anywhere. The service history shows regular maintenance, the service book documents 18 services up to 56,000 miles, of which 15 are by the main dealer and 3 by a Porsche specialist, the last being a major service and advisory-free MOT in October 2025. As a result, it drives fantastic - it’s a real joy to drive and sounds sublime. The glass Targa roof opens & slides smoothly, as does the electric blind, and being a Targa model, the rear window opens as a hatchback which, with the rear seats folded makes a spacious and easily accessible load area. A special 911 with great provenance, ready to be driven and enjoyed.
