Description
1996 Porsche 911 (993) Carrera 2 Cabriolet Varioram - Polar Silver - 82,000 Miles
A beautiful and increasingly sought-after Porsche 911 (993) Carrera 2 Cabriolet Varioram finished in timeless Polar Silver Metallic with the desirable 285 BHP air-cooled 3.6-litre flat-six engine. As one of the final air-cooled 911s, the 993 is widely regarded as one of Porsche's finest creations and continues to be one of the most collectable modern classics.
I have owned this car for nearly 20 years, having purchased it from my neighbour, and it has been carefully maintained and cherished throughout my ownership. It has spent most of its life garaged and has always been maintained regardless of cost.
Having covered just 82,000 miles, the car remains mechanically excellent and drives exactly as a well-maintained 993 should. It benefits from a recent service and new rear tyres and is supplied with an extensive history file documenting its maintenance throughout its life.
The history is a real highlight of this car. It comes complete with the original Porsche service book, stamped by Official Porsche Centres including Merlin Porsche, AFN Porsche and Porsche Solihull, together with respected independent Porsche specialists such as Tognola Engineering and Chelsea Carrera Porsche Specialists. Accompanying the service book is a substantial file of invoices, maintenance records and a full complement of MOT certificates, providing an excellent record of continuous care and maintenance over almost three decades.
The interior remains in excellent condition, while the Polar Silver bodywork and dark blue hood present beautifully for a car approaching 30 years old. The car is exceptionally original, honest and has clearly been cherished throughout its life.
