As an early Carrera 3.2, the car benefits from the desirable 915 five-speed manual gearbox rather than the later G50 transmission, offering the analogue driving experience many enthusiasts actively seek.
The car is insured, on the road and used occasionally in good weather, so mileage may increase slightly. When not in use, it is garaged and kept under cover.
Importantly, this is not a restoration project. It is a running, driving and highly usable classic Porsche that can be enjoyed immediately. Equally, it represents a rare, untouched opportunity for an enthusiast to enjoy as is or develop further, if desired. As with any 40-year-old car, there are areas that could be improved. All photographs are unedited, so buyers can assess the condition honestly.
The seats have been upgraded at some point during the car's life, the remainder of the interior remains largely original.
Prior to my purchase, the vehicle was inspected on a ramp, and both its condition and documentation were key factors in my decision to buy the 911.
