Description
2002 Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 4 Cabriolet - 3.6 Tiptronic
A well-presented and carefully maintained example of the Porsche 996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet, finished in Seal Grey metallic with a Red leather interior. This darker metallic grey is far rarer than the more common silver grey and together with the red leather interior makes a very attractive combination. The black wheels with red brake callipers further enhance the look.
Powered by Porsche's 3.6-litre flat-six engine and fitted with the Tiptronic automatic transmission, this 2002 Carrera 4 offers the combination of performance, four-wheel drive and open-top motoring that makes the 996 such an appealing modern classic.
The car has covered 88,000 miles and comes with an extensive service history file. It has had 6 former keepers and has clearly been well cared for throughout its life.
Recent and significant maintenance includes:
* IMS bearing replacement
* New rear tyres
* New rear suspension track-control arms
* New air-conditioning condensers
* Dansk sports exhaust system
* Major service completed in December 2025, including new spark plugs
* Next major service not due until December 2027
The car also comes with its original-style hardtop, making it particularly useful for winter use and giving the car a completely different character when fitted.
The Seal Grey metallic grey paintwork and Red leather combination suit the 996 exceptionally well, while the Dansk sports exhaust gives the flat-six a more purposeful and characterful sound.
Upgraded infotainment with Bluetooth and hands free mobile phone.
A genuine, usable Porsche 911 with excellent provenance, a substantial history file and a good record of preventative maintenance. Very good condition with no more than the expected wear and tear of a well maintained car of its age. This is a car that can be enjoyed immediately rather than simply being kept as a future project. Good examples of the 996 are now getting harder to find and are starting to increase in price. Owned and being sold by a mature Porsche enthusiast.
