Welcome to Silverstone for the highlight auction
of the year for Porsche lovers everywhere, the
Silverstone Auctions Porsche Sale. We’re huge fans of
Porsche at Silverstone Auctions and it’s a real honour
to return to our spiritual home at Silverstone Circuit
for this very special sale in conjunction with Porsche
Club GB.
Our team of classic car specialists has been working
very hard to bring you a spectacular line-up of
Porsches, ranging from the finest 911s available
today to the increasingly popular front-engined 924s
and 944s, and even a Porsche tractor. We have an
incredible selection of iconic 930 Turbos, for many the
epitome of 1970s and 1980s ‘supercars’, including
one owned by Glenn Tipton of Judas Priest that
was the inspiration for the band’s platinum-selling
album, ‘Turbo’. Several of the cars have amazing
back stories, including one lovingly cherished 911
Carrera 2.7 MFI owned by PCT Porsche partner David
Pattison. For true Porsche aficionados, this is a sale
that will delight and enthral!
The partnership between Silverstone Auctions and
Porsche Club GB has only grown stronger this year
and I’d like to thank the team once again for its
support and give a special welcome to all those Club
members joining us today.
If you are new to the auction process, we have plenty
of help on hand to guide you towards owning the
Porsche of your dreams. Don’t hesitate to speak to
a member of our expert team who will be delighted
to provide help and assistance through every step of
the buying process.
If you missed the chance to sell your Porsche today,
there will be another opportunity for you at our
final auction of the year at the two-day NEC Classic
Motor Show Sale, which takes place on 11th – 12th
November. Please don’t hesitate to have a chat with
our team today if you would like to enter your car.
I hope to see you there, but for now, enjoy the sale and
have a successful and entertaining day.

For the 1989 model year, the S2 variant of the Porsche 944 was
much-upgraded and replaced both the standard and ‘S’ spec 944s.
A new aluminium cylinder block employing Formula One technology
allowed a capacity increase to 3.0-litres, making it the largest
production 4-cylinder engine of its time. Power was up 21bhp on
the 944 S, and torque was also considerably increased. Externally,
the S2 adopted the lower-drag nose and tail panels from the Turbo,
which along with a taller final drive ratio, helped a manual gearbox
car hit almost 150mph and achieve a 0-60mph time of 6.0 seconds.
The Turbo’s braking system was also adopted and ‘Series 90’
16-inch cast alloy wheels were standard equipment. Production of
the S2, and in fact the 944 as a mainstream model, ended in 1991,
giving way to the 968.
The car presented here is a last-year-of-production example, and is a
right-hand drive C16 (UK-supplied) 1991 S2 944 Coupé. The car has
covered a conservative 63,000 miles in the hands of just two previous
owners. It was delivered new through ‘Five Oaks Garage’ in Jersey on
13th May 1992 but has resided for the last few years in Guernsey, with
occasional trips across the water for servicing at Porsche specialists
‘Marque 21’ of Bridport in Dorset. Indeed, the car has an extensive
service history and we are assured that it drives and performs very well.
The car looks particularly striking in the rare combination of Glacier
Blue Metallic (LY5U) and a blue leather interior.
The 944, the 968 and even the 928 are seeing their values rise in
the wake of the ‘911 explosion’ and front-engined Porsches are
having the renaissance they richly deserve. This great example,
whilst being competitively guided (and with taxes paid), opens the
door into a very exclusive club.

When Porsche introduced the 996 in 1998, it heralded a big
departure from the timeless 911 concept, for not only was it
radically different to its predecessor, but for the first time a Porsche
911 was water-cooled. The changes were driven by the market that
had become more demanding in terms of refinement and power,
and those same principles apply some 20 years later. The 996’s
body styling was totally new and the interior was redesigned to
give the venerable 911 a new lease of life. As is the way of things,
in 2002 the facelifted model arrived incorporating headlight and
bumper changes and an improved aero package, and these subtle
changes further enhanced what has been described as the “First
truly modern 911 with grand tourer and supercar performance”.
Offered here is a stunning 2003, right-hand drive, 3.6-litre Porsche
996 Carrera 2 Coupé with Tiptronic transmission and an exceptional
service record. Originally supplied by Porsche Sutton Coldfield, it’s
finished in Silver with a wonderfully distinctive interior in Wimbledon
Green optioned with matching Alcantara headlining and a top tinted
screen. The service book contains seventeen stamps recording and
corroborating the low indicated mileage of only 70,000. The engine
had a full check over/rebuild at 54,000 miles in 2012 by marque
experts Hartech Automotive Porsche Specialists. Our vendor, who
bought the car six years ago, has maintained it to an extraordinarily
high level as his intention was to use it for extended continental trips
and reliability was paramount. In addition to routine servicing, both
mufflers have been replaced, as have the headlight units, discs, pads
and all four shock absorbers. New air conditioning radiators have
been fitted with the appropriate pipework and unions. This smart
Porsche sits well on its four new tyres and is the proud possessor of
a shiny new MOT test certificate.
The overall condition of this 996 Carrera 2 is really quite special and
it may well be the best available in the marketplace today at this
guide price.

The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the
original 911 that first appeared in 1963. These final cars (before
being replaced by the more complicated 964) were the most flexible
and usable of Butzi Porsche’s original design. Launched in 1984,
and reviving the ‘Carrera’ name for the first time since 1977, these
were the ultimate 1980s sports cars.
The all-alloy flat-6 engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971,
received a final stretch to 3,164cc, producing a torque-rich 231bhp
– enough to propel the lithe and slippery coupé to over 150mph,
with 0-60mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. Cars built from September
1986 onwards were fitted with the more user-friendly G50 Getrag
gearbox, but all 3.2 Carreras feature galvanized bodies, which
together with Porsche’s legendary build quality, ensure that these
classics are long-lasting.
This lovely, right-hand drive, 1988 Carrera is finished in a most
desirable colour combination, gleaming Black complemented by a
full Black Leather interior with red piping, and is a factory ‘Sport’
model with Fuchs alloy wheels, sport seats, rear seatbelts, rear
wiper, spoilers, Bilstein sport shock-absorbers, sunroof, and a
carpeted luggage compartment.
It was purchased in the UK by its current owner in 2012, who
exported the car to Cyprus where it was well-maintained by a local
Porsche specialist for the next four years. It was subsequently
shipped to the Netherlands when the current owner moved back to
his home country.
We understand that approximately ten years ago, the car was
stripped to bare metal and painted in its original black colour
scheme, however, it remains in largely original condition with the
only changes being the addition of wheel spacers and a non-original
radio. The accompanying MOT test certificates, service booklet
stamps, and a large folder of bills detailing expenditures from
both Porsche main dealers and specialist companies substantiate
the indicated mileage of just over 114,000 from new. It has been
well-maintained, is in good condition both mechanically and
cosmetically, and has never required any major work due to its
regular servicing, ‘relatively’ low mileage and garage storage.
There surely is no better entry into 911 ownership than the 3.2 Carrera.
It’s the final evolution of the original, tracing its roots right back to
1966. The 964 that replaced it was substantially different and much
more complex, so if you are in the market for the classic Porsche
experience, this 3.2 Carrera Sport, at this guide, seems a perfect fit.

In 1989, the second series of the 944 was introduced, powered by a
210bhp normally aspirated, double-overhead-cam 16-valve 3.0-litre
version of the 944 S engine, which was the largest four-cylinder
engine in production at the time. The 944 S2 also benefited from
a revised transmission and the gearing was tweaked to better suit
the torque and peak power characteristics of the 3.0 L M44/41
powerplant.
The S2 had the same rounded nose and a rear valance found on
the 944 Turbo model and this was the first example of the use of
an integrated front bumper, where the bumper and bonnet profiles
would merge smoothly, a design feature that was to be widely
adopted on production cars from the early nineties. The 944 S2
went out of production in 1991 and this example was one of the last
to be delivered to the UK and was sold through Rivervale Porsche
Centre in Sussex on the 14th November 1990 to its first registered
keeper, Mr. Adam Worsfold.
Mr. Worsfold had, together with his business partner Tony Brady,
established the highly successful hi-fi and amplifier business
‘ONIX’, which enjoyed massive growth during the 1980s. As
befitting a young entrepreneur enjoying the trappings of the boom
in home music centres a white Porsche was on the cards, and the
number plate H80 NYX was an overt nod to his success. In 1991
he undertook a tour of Europe in the 944 finishing in Malta and,
having parked the car near to a restaurant, it was to Mr. Worsfold’s
utter dismay that he returned to find an empty space. It must be
stated at this juncture that HPI records are clear of any insurance
claims or stolen-recovered warnings. In 2002, Mr. Worsfold returned
to Malta and, as luck would have it, spotted the Porsche in a car
park, however, it was never going to be a simple process and it took
another eleven years whilst the car languished in a police compound
until repatriation took place in 2013.
Arriving back to the UK in a largely blemish-free condition,
Mr. Worsfold spent some £16,000 on recommissioning works
carried out by Porsche Centre Bournemouth and other specialists in
2016. The car is presented to auction with an MOT test certificate
valid until December 2017 and an odometer reading of a shade
under 21,500 miles (Malta is only 17 miles long). With an incredible
story that deserves to be told at future car shows, and its one keeper
status, this 944 offers the enthusiast an unmissable opportunity.

Butzi Porsche’s original design. The all-alloy flat-6 engine, which had

giving a torquey 231hp, enough to propel the lithe and slippery icon
to over 150mph, with 0-60mph coming up in 5.6 seconds.
As documented in the extensive history file, this 3.2 Carrera Coupé
was first delivered on 9th November 1984 to its first owner, a Mr.
Nelson of the Rolex Watch Company by AFN Porsche Centre of
Chiswick. The paint code L999 is commonly known as a special-
order paint code, however, basically it’s just a different shade of
Silver with a contrasting navy blue pin-striped interior. The Carrera
was subsequently bought by its long-term owner, our vendor, on
23rd August 2002 from Hendon Way Motors.
Our vendor has clearly cossetted this car during his fifteen-year
tenure and it’s only offered to auction due to the imminent arrival
of a 1968 Corvette without enough space to store them both.

Following the international success of their nimble 924, Porsche
designed an all-alloy, 2.5-litre inline-four for their new 944, which
they planned to introduce in 1982. Their talented engineers were
able to produce a very smooth-running four-cylinder engine by
utilising two counter-rotating balance shafts running at twice engine
speed. The result is a large four-cylinder engine that feels as turbine-
smooth as a six.
Cosmetically, the 944’s bodywork was revised with wider wheel
arches (similar to that of the 924 Carrera GT), a fresh interior and
upgrades to the brakes and suspension. With greater visual presence
and the performance to match, better handling, stopping power and
more creature comforts, the 944 was a natural step forward.
A ‘turbo’ version of the 944 was always on the cards, and for
the 1985 model year, Porsche introduced the 944 Turbo, known
internally as the 951. Forced induction boosted the 2.5-litre engine
by a healthy 60bhp, up to 217bhp, with the clutch and gearbox
uprated to suit. The Turbo also featured several other changes, such
as improved aerodynamics, notably an integrated front bumper,
standard external oil coolers for both the engine and transmission,
standard 16-inch wheels (optional forged Fuchs alloys), and a
slightly stiffer suspension setup. The Turbo’s front and rear brakes
were borrowed from the Porsche 911, with Brembo 4-piston fixed
calipers and 12-inch discs and ABS was also standard.
The car presented here is a 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo Coupé, and
is a C16 (UK-supplied) right-hand drive example. Finished in the
classic Porsche colour combination of Guards Red with a Black
leather interior, this car has been very well cared for and has been
the recipient of much expenditure over the last four years, with
many parts having been either replaced or fully reconditioned. The
result of all this work means this enthusiast-owned car has won two
Concours d’Elegance trophies for ‘Best Sports Car’ in 2015 and
2nd place at a Porsche Owners’ Club competition in August 2017.
This show-winning standard really belies the indicated mileage
of 110,000, aided further by the reassuring presence of a fully
stamped-up service booklet, a large file of invoices, and its original
jack and tool-roll – small but important details that point to dutiful
ownership.
This is a simply lovely example of one of the most sought-after
Porsches from the 1990s. The 944, the 968 and even the 928 are
seeing their values rise in the wake of the ‘911 explosion’ and front-
engined Porsches are having the renaissance they richly deserve.
This prize-winning example is very competitively guided and could
open the door to a very exclusive club.

Following spells at the Austro-Daimler, Mercedes-Benz, and Steyr
companies, all of which benefited greatly from his monumental
engineering prowess, Dr. Ferdinand Porsche set up his own design
consultancy in Stuttgart on 25th April 1931. Dr. Ing. F. Porsche’s
most celebrated product of the 1930s was, of course, Hitler’s
‘People’s Car’ – the Volkswagen – but the company was also active
in other fields, literally so in the case of its tractor project. Several
prototypes were constructed prior to WW2, the earliest of which
were powered by petrol engines, before Dr. Porsche turned to diesel
power, eventually developing a series of one, two, three and four-
cylinder air-cooled engines ranging in output from 14 to 55bhp. As
with all things from Dr. Porsche’s fertile imagination, the tractors
owed little to convention and much to creativity, efficiency and
imagination. An unusual feature of Porsche’s drive system was
its hydraulic coupling between the engine and the gearbox, which
permitted smooth, clutchless gear changes, reducing wear on the
transmission components and was simple to use and maintain by
unsophisticated farmers.
After the end of the war, Porsche was barred from producing its
own tractors and only companies that had been making tractors
prior to and during the war were permitted to carry on, forcing
Porsche to license its designs to other manufacturers. Agreements
were concluded with two companies, Allgaier GmbH in Germany
and Hofherr Schrantz in Austria, and then in 1954 Mannesmann
AG diversified into tractor manufacture by acquiring the rights to
Porsche’s engine and Allgaier’s tractor design, setting up Porsche-
Diesel Motorenbau GmbH.
Offered here is a fully restored Porsche ‘Standard J’ tractor
produced in 1962 and now superbly finished in Red and Cream.
Its first owner was Ludwig Obermann and the original German log
book shows him as the first registered keeper from 26/10/1962
until, many years later, ownership was transferred to his son Johann
in May 1978. The tractor’s current owner acquired it in Germany
in 1988 and imported it into England. Unusually, it’s accompanied
by its original German documentation together with period colour
brochures. The inventory also includes spares and ancillaries, a
pasture topper, a parts book, and the relevant handbooks. It has
recently been serviced, and a new battery fitted, so it now starts on
the button with that characteristic three-cylinder soundtrack. This
rare, post-war, German tractor is eminently suitable for working a
small holding or market garden, however, we suspect it is more likely
to occupy a corner of an eclectic Porsche collection.
In the memorabilia auction prior to the Porsche car sale, there are
various tractor-related items including a very rare illuminated dealer
Porsche sign, an enamel sign, and other relevant period items.
This is a wonderful piece of Porsche history, and extremely desirable.

Supplied new by Ian Anthony Porsche of Wilmslow, Cheshire in
August 1988 to a Mr. John Holmes, this is a very rare, UK-supplied,
911 (930) Turbo that has been exceptionally well-maintained and
covered just 24,000 miles from new.
Finished in Marine Blue Metallic with Linen leather seats, the factory
options when new included recoil bumpers, tonneau cover in blue,
heated driver and passenger seats, heavy-duty battery, Limited
Slip Diff, Blaupunkt stereo, power hood, amplifier system, top tint
windscreen, luggage compartment trimmed in black velour, and
soft-look leather seats.
Having formed part of a significant private collection, this car has
an outstanding service history, all with main dealers and noted
specialists, including all prior MOT test certificates that confirm the
mileage as genuine and therefore warranted. It was acquired by our
vendor from noted Porsche specialists Hexagon Modern Classics in
July 2015 for a sum close to £100k and has been well-maintained
but rarely used ever since.
Since then, it has been properly stored in a purpose-built heated
facility. This UK Turbo Cab is a rare opportunity to own an iconic car
of the era that is fully ‘on the button’ and ready to go and with such
limited numbers built, it also represents an excellent investment
opportunity.
Supplied with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the car is fully
matching numbers and totally original throughout and also benefits
from a ‘930’ private registration number, which is included in the
hammer price.

Porsche’s intended replacement for the 911 may not have achieved
that goal, but it wasn’t for a lack of performance or technological
wizardry. An alloy V8 was attached to a rear-mounted gearbox, and the
galvanised body had aluminium doors and bonnet, plus body-coloured
plastic bumpers – pretty radical for its time. The 928 was launched to a
fanfare and surprised many by being named European Car of the Year,
an award that traditionally went to worthy but dull family hatchbacks.
Critics immediately recognised the advances that the 928 had made
over the 911, and the car was universally praised as one of the greatest
GT cars of all time. It handled, it was quick, it looked fantastic and it
was comfortable. With the 928, Porsche created a serious long-distance
grand touring car that could also tackle twisting B-roads with ease,
thanks to super-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution, and a clever
Weissach rear axle that kept the car firmly planted.
As time went on, the 928 grew ever more powerful and the S4 version
that came out in 1987 had a much developed 5-litre V8 that produced
316bhp. There were a number of changes including different pistons,
cylinder heads, camshafts, and larger intake valves, compared to earlier
5.0-litre engines. The LH-Jetronic injection was updated, the ignition
changed to the EZK system and automatics were fitted with a larger
torque converter. The styling was also subtly updated with smoother
nose and tail treatments that gave the car an even cleaner, sleeker look.
0-60 was now in the 5.6 seconds bracket and the top speed was raised
to 168mph.
As a true GT car, the automatic gearbox – as seen in this delightful
right-hand drive example – offered seamless changes perfectly
complementing the long-legged 5.0-litre V8. Delivered new, we believe,
to Hong Kong in 1991 in Amethyst Purple Metallic with a matching,
and oh-so period, interior, this 1991 S4 was first registered in the UK
on the 9th June 2003. There are invoices on file detailing quite a lot
of work and attention at K2 Race Engineering and Graham Hill Motor
Technicians, amongst others, and the Porsche has recently been fully
serviced. The car is presented to auction in very good order with some
67,000 kilometres (42,000 miles) indicated, an MOT test certificate
valid until January 2018, and the perfectly apt private registration A328
GEM. This 928’s distinctive colour scheme and dramatic interior made
it the ideal candidate for ‘Modern Classics’ magazine, and this car
looks great in a recent double-page feature about the classic 928.
These 928s really are quite amazing machines and look like no other
car before or since with inspired styling that will never go out of date.
Considering that it was Porsche’s flagship model for almost two
decades, with all the engineering integrity and supercar performance
that this implies, it is really surprising that you can still pick them up
for such modest sums today. Compared to air-cooled 911s they offer
astonishing value for money, a situation that will not last much longer
as prices have already begun to rise sharply. Another one to buy now
before everyone else comes to the same conclusion.

Introduced in 1988, the 944 Turbo was the fastest production
four-cylinder car in the world at the time. By 1989, the ‘S’
designation was dropped and for the last few years of production,
all the previous ‘S’ enhancements became standard – including
7-inch and 9-inch wheels with 225/50 and 245/45 tyres, a high
friction disc-type clutch, an external oil cooler, and a limited slip
diff with 40% lockup. The engine now produced 250bhp resulting in
0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and a top speed of 162mph.
This 944 Turbo Cabriolet was supplied new in June 1992 and is one
of the last 944 Turbos made. JCT 600 Leeds was the supplying dealer
and Glenlyon Development Services of Keighley, the original owner.
The second owner is our vendor – a private collector with the most
amazing personal collection of classic cars featuring many different
periods and marques. The history file contains many previous invoices
and MOT test certificates, which confirm the car’s upkeep and low
mileage of just 29,600. Most of the car’s miles were done early in its
life, with just 3,000 miles covered since 2011.
Today it is presented in exceptional condition and represents a modern
classic that is both highly usable and very collectable. The electric
hood works perfectly and the tonneau cover is as good as new. Well
finished in the original Guards Red with a traditional black interior,
we understand the car drives as well as it looks. Great looks, full
matching numbers and, for those of us that prefer our classics with a
few mod cons like ABS and air conditioning, ready to use and enjoy.

As the 911 legend has grown, so a desire for the pure, original,
short-wheelbase version of Porsche’s concept has increased with it.
For simplicity of styling and collector’s interest, it is these ‘A-series’
911s, before the wheelbase was extended in August 1968, which still
have an unrivaled appeal. The flat-six engine is only a 2.0-litre, but
it’s a highly tuned one wearing overhead cams and two triple-choke
carbs, runs sweetly, and suits the handing perfectly.
This Solid Tangerine, left-hand drive, matching numbers example
was manufactured in 1968 for the US market and was, therefore,
one of the last cars built on the original wheelbase before the LWB
‘B-series’ cars were introduced later that year. ‘118-3-0137’ was
supplied new on the 9th February 1968 to Colonel Rob Rodden of
Carmel, Monterey. He owned the car for some 35 years and clearly
applied military standards of discipline when it came to maintaining
his beloved Porsche. Indeed, the very impressive service history
accompanying the car shows a considerable number of service
entries under his ownership. When the Colonel sadly passed away
his son, Rob Jnr., felt it appropriate to part with the Porsche and
there is a letter in the history file attesting to this.
A later owner sympathetically restored the 911 in 2005 and the
Porsche subsequently arrived in the UK in 2010 when a Mr. Sillitoe
became its latest owner. There is documentation in the history file
from Porsche Cars GB confirming the original ‘matching numbers’
that the car retains today. Our vendor purchased the car in 2014
and it has formed part of his significant private collection ever
since, always dry stored and well cared for. Indeed, this actual car
was used for a six-page feature in 2014 in ‘Total 911’ magazine’s
guide to buying an early 911 and was their front cover car.
This car also benefits from the optional and desirable factory-
fitted, 5-speed gearbox and 15-inch Fuchs alloy wheels. The very
impressive history file contains the original handbook, service book
and wallet, a variety of invoices, the service stamps from new, spare
keys, and a fresh MOT test certificate. This is a rare opportunity to
acquire an early short wheelbase A-Series car that has been expertly
maintained and lovingly cared for throughout its life.
Early 911s possess a certain purity of line that is a complete world
away from the aerodynamic extravagances of the eighties and
nineties, and in terms of style, it’s these cars that engender the
most appreciative glances. A well set-up and maintained early 911,
driven with an intelligent right foot, will provide some of the most
quintessentially rewarding driving experiences you have ever had,
and even the 2.0-litre car for sale here will leave you with a serious
grin.

The 993 was the final generation of air-cooled 911s, and as such will
always have a special place in the affections of Porsche enthusiasts.
It is also widely said to be the last of the 911s that were built whilst
engineering integrity overruled accounting pressures at Porsche.
Twenty years on, it still looks modern – a truly timeless design.
The 993 was launched in the autumn of 1994 and was claimed to
be 80% new. The bodywork was altogether more curvaceous, with
a number of new panels and the overall look was much smoother
and more integrated. Importantly, this new style was still every inch
a 911 in the traditional manner, with the profiles of the doors and
rear quarter windows remaining unchanged from earlier models.
The biggest change under the skin was the new multi-link rear
suspension, giving greater driver confidence, less road noise,
and excellent ride quality. Designed to give a level of passive
rear-wheel steering (the ‘Weissach effect’), thus controlling the
way the suspension behaved under cornering, braking, and
acceleration, it transformed the 911. It was also the first 911
to be equipped with power steering and an advanced ABS system.
Presented here is a UK right-hand drive 1995 Porsche 911 (993)
Carrera 2 Cabriolet with a Tiptronic gearbox supplied by Lancaster
Porsche. Finished in the beautiful colour combination of Aventura
Green Metallic with a full grey leather interior, this car was registered
on 17th February 1995 to its first owner. The car is supplied with
hard-backed electric sports seats, electric windows, electric wing
mirrors, remote central locking, and a Kenwood Stereo.
The history file includes invoices dating back to 2002 and a raft
of MOT certificates confirming its mileage. Maintenance duties
have been undertaken by Porsche main agents, as well as marque
specialists, with Parr Motorsport carrying out servicing annually
since 2008, the last of which was on the 9th December 2016.
The service book is now showing 20 stamps in total. In 2016, the
car was treated to a full glass-out respray and a new canvas hood,
ensuring that it now looks absolutely stunning.
It’s supplied with its original book pack containing the driver’s
manuals and service book, the spare key, the UK V5C, and an
MOT test certificate valid until 9th January 2018. Currently stored
professionally and now showing 66,683 miles on the odometer, this
911 has been pampered all of its life and is now ready to find a new
home.

When it comes to the 911, ask any ‘Porschephile’ for their opinion
as to which was the greatest racing 911 ever built and quickly you
will become used to hearing the acronym ‘RSR’. Introduced in
1973 by the factory as an evolution of the already potent 2.7 RS, it
was both an official ‘works’ team car built to contest International
World Championship ‘Group’ 4 GT endurance events and was also
available for privateer race teams in full competition trim.
The ‘RS’ itself was a hugely successful development of the standard
2.4-litre flat-six. The engine was bored out to 2.7 and carefully
massaged to produce 210 horsepower, which was fed through a
five-speed gearbox with uprated 4th and 5th cogs, all contributing
to a top speed of over 150mph. Revised and stiffened suspension
and larger four-wheel disc brakes complemented the increased
power and ensured the RS remained perfectly balanced. An initial
order of 500 RS models was produced to meet FIA ‘Homologation
Requirements’ but the cars were so popular that production
eventually totaled some 1,580 units.
The most hardcore, no-nonsense, version of these race-focused
911s was the RSR. These Rennsport specials, with their dramatic,
pumped-out wheel arches, intensified the standard 2.7 RS flavour
in every way. Even wider, lighter, faster, and more capable in every
performance category, the RSR was the RS unrestricted, dialed in
for maximum capability with scant regard for creature comforts. The
formula was successful – the 2.8 RSR is still recognised today as
one of Porsche’s most successful race cars.
Sadly, however, if the RSR was in the ‘Periodic Table of Elements,
it would be ‘Unobtanium’ as just 49 were built resulting in them
rarely coming to market, and when they do, the numbers are not for
the faint-hearted. Consequently, anyone wishing to experience the
addictive blend of handling, balance, performance, feel and simple
purity that is the RSR, has no choice but to create their own.
We are pleased to offer for sale an original 1973 left-hand drive,
911T brilliantly modified to 2.8 RSR specification and homologated
as an FIA Historic Race Car with a current FIA Technical Passport
(Competition GT; Class GTS27). Unusually, for a conversion of
this nature, the car is UK-registered with an MOT test certificate
and historic vehicle tax status and is ready for immediate use on
the road or circuit. Chassis Number 9113 10 0481 was originally
delivered to the USA in March 1973, however much of its early
history is unknown. In 1991, it was registered as belonging to
Patricia J Vanleen of Baton Rouge, Los Angeles and in October 2009
was returned to Germany in the care of the S & N Automobilzentrum
Aachen Gmbh. Since July 2010, the car has been the pride and joy
of its current owner, our vendor.
On its arrival in Germany, the decision was taken to create an
accurate RSR replica using the 911T as a basis and this work was
entrusted to ‘Scuderia-Eleven de’ with the engine left in the capable
hands of Bienert Boxer-Motoren, who have over 25 years’ experience
in preparing air-cooled Porche engines. The specification is too long
to detail here but briefly:
Original engine type 911/51 (2.4-litre, 140bhp) replaced with
1974/75, 911/41 engine modified to 2.8-litre, compression ratio
10.8:1 producing 265bhp with mechanical fuel injection, and twin
ignition. Five-speed, ‘short-shift’ 915 gearbox and a ZF LSD. Front
strut brace, adjustable front shocks, adjustable front and rear anti-
roll bars, front and rear polyurethane axle bushes, thicker torsion
bars, and steel braided brake lines. Front tyres: 215/55 R1, rear
tyres 270/45 R15. Wheels front: 9Jx15 and rear 11Jx15.
The bumpers, front and rear bonnets and the wings were replaced
with composite parts. ‘Makrolon’ polycarbonate side and rear
windows. Welded in multipoint roll cage. Sports steering wheel,
sports seats with full harnesses and aluminium footplates. The final
setup was completed by Kadach.com for Harry Utesche at DLS
Automobile in Stuttgart.
Our vendor, a well-known racing driver who has raced RSRs in the
past, admits “There is no excuse or way to avoid the fact that I fell
completely in love with this car some time before it came to market.
For me, it was the perfect looking, quintessential 911.” Having
owned the car for the last seven years he confirms, “It is THE most
tactile, malleable and sweet performer on the circuit with very
much the right amount of power matching the grip available with a
performance not so far from the delightful racetrack-only Chevron
B8s etc. Around Spa & Monza, it was just pure racing delight.”
The new owner of this wonderful 911 has a number of options. It’s a
legal and perfectly usable road car, although, with a full competition
suspension setup, it wouldn’t be long before you became good
friends with your chiropractor, it could be developed into a pure, no-
holds-barred, full house racer, or left as it is, an ‘on-the-button’ entry
for some of Europe’s most prestigious events including Tour Auto,
Spa Classic, and the Monza Historic.
Finished in sparkling Grand Prix White, this immaculate Porsche is
accompanied by its UK V5C, MOT test certificate, DMSB Historic
Technical Passport, and an inspection report from Gunther Frey.
Dipl.Ing (FH).
It would cost over £200,000 to prepare a car to this specification today
and, at this guide, we feel that this stunning road/race 911 represents
tremendous value for money and would welcome any inspection.

Introduced at the 1963 Frankfurt Motor Show, the basic Porsche
911 design would run virtually unchanged for 29 years. Ferdinand
Porsche had been quietly working on a design since the late fifties,
knowing that demand for his ever-popular 356 would eventually
wane, and he would need a replacement that was fit for the changing
needs of the mid-sixties. Eventually, the new car took shape on
his drawing board and the 901 (later 911) was born and this
design still, to this day, underpins the production of Porsche AG
of Stuttgart. Before long, the merits of using the Porsche 911 in
competitive motorsport became apparent and history records it
as one of the most successful campaigners of all time. From the
24 Hours of Le Mans to grass-roots motorsport, the 911 offered
reliable performance in many guises.
For 1970, the C-Series 911 was introduced with a larger cylinder
bore giving a capacity of 2165cc, producing 125bhp and now
badged as a ‘T’ at this power output. Alterations to suspension pick-
up points improved the handling and gave a little more steering feel.
Six-inch Fuchs ‘five-leaf’ forged alloys were now a standard fit.
This early 911 was imported into the UK from California in 2003
by its current owner, with the intention of keeping it as original as
possible with sensible upgrades to enable it to be used for classic
rally events. It was fitted with towing eyes, bonnet straps, a fire
extinguisher, Hella spotlights, and door roundels, etc. although in
the event, the car was never used in rallies as other plans intervened.
It was used for touring, however, and our enthusiast vendor has
“fond memories of touring the Black Forest in Germany where it never
missed a beat and courted attention wherever it went.”
During his tenure, the 911 received regular attention including
a new steering lock, new high torque starter motor, new light
assemblies, Continental Premium tyres, new indicator stalk, and
relay etc.A replacement Bosch distributor with new cap, rotor arm,
leads, and coil was fitted at a cost of £500, and the car benefitted
from an upgraded timing chain tensioner kit including new camshaft
seals at a cost exceeding £1,000. The suspension was stripped and
new shocks fitted, also costing around £1,000.
Provided with the Porsche are confirmation that all customs duties
have been paid, the V948 Number Plate Authorisation Certificate,
the V5C in the current owner’s name, invoices relating to most of
the above work, and the MOT test certificate expiring in September
2018. Historic road tax expires at the end of August 2018.
According to our vendor, he is “Only selling as the car as it’s not
being used nearly enough and deserves a new owner to enjoy.” Early
911s are becoming increasingly topical and this smart and sensibly-
guided 911T deserves a look.

Production of the successor to the Porsche 356 began in 1964. It
had appeared at the 1963 Frankfurt Show under the ‘901’ banner,
however, Peugeot claimed that they had a legal right to this number
sequence so the 911 was born. Then, almost immediately, the
extraordinary process of Porsche evolution began. One of the first
upgrades came in 1966 with the introduction of the 911S, which
featured a better-equipped interior and a revised engine producing
160bhp. But, by this time, approximately half of all 911s produced
were exported to the USA, where the increasingly stringent emission
regulations demanded changes had to be made to the original
design and another significant safety change was the introduction
of dual circuit brakes. However, it took Porsche time to meet these
emissions targets and an interim model, the 911L, was introduced.
The 911L was only built and sold in 1968 and around 450 left the
factory. It featured the 911S’s superior equipment level but retained
the torquey 130bhp engine running on Weber carburetors.
Offered here is a left-hand drive, Porsche 911L produced on 6th
February 1968 and supplied to its first owner in the US through
VW Pacific in Culver City, California. Finished in Polo Red with
a Black leatherette interior, the car was originally supplied as a
‘Sportomatic’, although it now features a manual gearbox. In 1991,
the Porsche returned across the Atlantic and was imported into the
UK and first registered with the DVLA on 27/06/91 obtaining a UK
V5C, however, an invoice from late May of that year indicates that
the car’s first stop after its long journey was at marque specialists
Parr Garage who carefully inspected the 911 and set it up to run
sweetly.
Purchased by our vendor in 2006, the car has since undergone
a steady programme of recommissioning work. It was stripped,
prepared, and professionally repainted in its original Polo Red and
the interior has benefitted from new carpets, new vinyl covering in
the rear, and a set of new, period aircraft-style, seatbelts provided by
Quickfit Safety Belts of Stanmore in Middlesex. The engine has been
fully rebuilt by Mani Pou including the carburetors and the car has
covered less than 100 miles since.
Looking very smart sat on the correct 5 1/2J, 15-inch Fuchs
alloys shod with new Dunlop SP10s, this is a very useable classic
Porsche and is supplied with a UK V5C, its Porsche Certificate of
Authenticity, and a fresh MOT test certificate.
Rarely do 911Ls come to market and this lovely Polo Red example
represents excellent value.

The Porsche 911 ‘Carrera 3.0’ has a very special place in the
history of the 911, as it brought together elements from two of
Porsche’s most legendary cars. It was the latest incarnation of
the Carrera name, originally introduced to the 911 series as the
classic 2.7 RS in late 1972, and the Carrera 3’s 2993cc engine
used the same die-cast aluminium crankcase as its cousin, the
newly introduced Porsche 930 Turbo’. Sold between 1976-1977,
and during its short two-year lifespan only 3,687 cars were built
– a tiny amount compared to nearly 58,000 911SCs and 76,500
3.2 Carreras produced. Of these, 2,564 were coupés, 1,123 were
produced in Targa form, and only a very small number of these were
manufactured in RHD.
This particular UK-supplied, right-hand drive, 911 3.0 Carrera Sport
was delivered to its first owner, Mr P. Arnold of Dolphin Square, SW1
on the 14th June 1976. The car is finished in Copper Brown Metallic
with a Cinnamon interior, and being a Carrera Sport features options
such as a Blaupunkt Bamberg radio, front and rear spoilers, the
distinctive ‘Whale Tail, Bilstein shock absorbers, a 5-speed manual
gearbox, and wider Fuchs alloy wheels.
After a handful of owners, the car was purchased by our vendor in
2008. A Porsche enthusiast at heart, he set about returning this
car to its former glory with a full bare-metal, glass-out repaint in
its original period colour, for which a bill from respected classic
car specialists, D.C.Coachworks, is included in the history file. At
around the same time, the front seats were given the Southbound
Trimmers treatment and are now looking superb. Throughout his
ownership, the car has been serviced and maintained by Porsche
Centre Tonbridge with the last service being carried out by them in
June 2017. The original service book shows 10 previous stamps for
servicing and maintenance over the years and included in the file are
a number of old MOT certificates and relevant invoices. The top end
of the engine was also rebuilt in the last few years.
Supplied with a UK V5C, an MOT test certificate valid until 15th
May 2018, and its tools and books, this lovely example now shows
144,492 miles on the odometer. This car presents a wonderful
opportunity to own a well-sorted and very usable classic Porsche
– retro cool at its finest!

Following the demise of the 1973 Carrera 2.7RS, the 964 Carrera of
1991 became the next Porsche to sport the famous ‘RS’ designation
and, like its predecessor, was a ‘homologation special’ originally
built to race in the Carrera Cup Series, which was part of the
publicity machine surrounding the 964. In common with the original
RS, there were essentially two different versions available, the Sport
(frequently referred to as the Lightweight) and the Touring (RST).
The overwhelming majority of these were Lightweights and, apart
from the half-dozen, right-hand drive Touring models imported into
the UK, few are thought to have reached other markets.
The road-going RST had more power, more grip, and better braking
than the existing 964 but, crucially, carried less weight. Its engine
was a blueprinted version of the standard car’s 3600cc air-cooled
flat six but with a lighter single mass flywheel, and a re-chipped
engine management system. Power was only up 10bhp on the
standard car but there was a decent amount of extra torque and
the car was significantly lighter. The suspension was lowered by
1.5 inches and stiffer springs and dampers were fitted. Other
tweaks included harder suspension bushes, ‘Unibal’ top strut
mounts, and beefier engine and gearbox mounts. The Touring
retained the standard car’s clutch but uprated brakes from the Turbo
were incorporated. Wheels were unique magnesium 17-inch rims
with lower profile rubber. Both Lightweight and Touring models were
fitted with power-steering. The RS Lightweight, however, took weight
saving to another level, even reducing the level of rust proofing but,
if this was a little too uncompromising for some tastes, the Tourings
retained most of the usual Carrera equipment as well as the normal
amounts of anti-rust and soundproofing.
This 1992, 911(964) RS Touring was finished on 05/03/1992
and despatched to the distributing dealer JCT Brooklands where
it remained until becoming the pride and joy of its first owner,
John Smith of Warefield and was registered on 25/09/93. It was
subsequently enjoyed by a further three owners before our vendor
purchased it from Autofarm in late February 2002. According to
its accompanying Porsche ‘Certificate of Authenticity’, the car was
built in right-hand drive and was destined for the UK market. It was
finished in Black (A1A1) with a Black interior and was specified with
Sport leather seats featuring triple colour seat inlays, top-tinted
windscreen, and a sunroof.
The car has been part of a family collection of immaculate Porsches
and the comprehensive history file is indicative of the fastidious
nature of our vendor. As well as the Porsche C of A, the file contains
membership details of the 964 RS Register, the V5C, MOT test
certificates going back to October ‘02 (the latest being issued on
22/04/2017 at 51,195 miles with no advisories), a number of old
tax discs, lots of correspondence relating to changes of Registration
Number (the current plate C2 RST is remaining with the car), a
number of period road tests and magazine articles, and all the
service and maintenance history whilst in our vendor’s possession.
The most recent invoice (RPM in Tring) details a major service at
51,000 miles with four new Michelin PS2 N3s, a new battery, and
an alignment and geometry check. Early in his ownership (46,466
miles), the car was entrusted to JZ in Kings Langley to “Carry out a
de-cat system, supply and fit performance chip.” The resulting dyno
printout shows 278.8bhp at the flywheel at 5,909rpm.
There are rare cars, and then there is the right-hand drive, 964 RS
Touring. Only 11 are recorded as having been built, with six of these
destined for the UK, making this immaculate all-black example
really special and it’s no wonder that they are actively sought after
by serious Porsche collectors all over the world.

In 1978, Porsche introduced the latest version of their 911
designated the ‘911 SC’. It featured a 3.0-litre six-cylinder
engine with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and a 5-speed (915)
transmission. Originally, power output was 180bhp, later 188bhp
and then in 1981, it was increased to 204bhp.
This right-hand drive 911 SC is presented in the classic colour
combination of Guards Red with a contrasting Black interior. This
car has been enjoyed by just four owners in the UK since 1984 after
having spent the first few years of its life in Ireland. There is a good
history file with the car with a variety of invoices detailing work
carried on the car in the past.
Our vendor recently sent his SC to the Porsche Centre Bournemouth
who serviced the car at a cost of £2,500 and details of this are in
the aforementioned history file. Now showing just over 82,000 miles
and supplied with an MOT test certificate, this is an excellent value
entry into ‘Classic 911’ ownership, with a great blend of traditional
styling and a more refined driving experience than earlier models.

Porsche’s first attempt at building a race car was the 550 Spyder.
It was powered by their Carrera 1500cc quad-cam flat-four engine
and it soon gained a reputation as a ‘Giant Killer’ with just a modest
115bhp. In 1956, an evolution of the Spyder won the Targa Floria
and the 550 was to record numerous successes worldwide over the
next few years. During September 1955, one of the first ninety 550
Spyders (Vin 550-0055) would, sadly, be immortalised in history
when James Dean, actor and budding racing driver, collided with
Donald Turnupseed on his way to the Salinas Road Race. The trans-
axle was removed from the wreck of the Spyder and is still owned
in the USA, and the battered bodywork of ‘Little Bastard’ toured
the States as a macabre reminder to speeding motorists. Between
venues, it went missing and has not been heard of since, however,
somebody knows where it is.
Offered here is Chamonix 550 Spyder built in 2009 by Special
Editions Inc. (USA) from the base car manufactured in Sao Paulo in
Brazil. It was initially supplied to F1 Assistant Race Director, Herbie
Blash, who’s usually seen in the driver’s weighing room after a
Grand Prix. Special Editions Inc. has been responsible for producing
other 550 Spyders for the likes of Jay Leno and designer Gordon
Murray leaving no doubt about the quality and desirability of these
well-crafted cars.
The overall fit and finish of the bodywork is of an exceptionally
high standard and the general condition is commensurate with only
having covered 3,500 miles. The rear wings have been painstakingly
detailed with red painted flashes with gold edging as a ‘nod’ to
period race liveries and are painted on. The look continues with a GT
mirror, Porsche badging, mesh headlight covers and leather engine-
cover straps. The red leather interior features a 14-inch Nardi wood
rim wheel, aluminium control stalks, and a push-button starter. The
weather equipment consists of full/half tonneau and side screens.
The engine is 1915cc, which gives vivid performance combined
with the legendary nimble handling offered by the tubular chassis
and coil-over suspension. It’s registered as a 1955 Chamonix so its
exempt from Road Fund Tax.
With original 550 Spyders at £5,000,000, this is a very good second best
and in this condition, and at this guide, represents remarkable value.

Based on the 993 generation of the 911 Turbo, the Porsche GT2
debuted in 1993 and was intended as a customer ‘GT’ racer
replacing the outgoing 964 Carrera RSR. These 993 GT2s had
a dramatic profile with wide composite wings and arches and a
distinctive rear wing with air scoops in the struts. At its introduction,
it had a twin-turbo 3.6-litre engine putting out 430bhp, which was
later uprated to 450bhp. The name was taken from the international
‘GT2’ class in which it was designed to compete. Just 57 road-going
cars were built, however, the 993 GT2 proved particularly successful
in motor sport and is still regarded with some reverence.
With the advent of the water-cooled 996 it was inevitable that a GT2
version would be on the cards fairly soon and in 2001, Weissach
duly obliged. The new car was powered by the M96/70 3.6-litre,
twin-turbocharged, flat six producing 462bhp at 5,700rpm and
620Nm of torque at 3,500rpm fed through a six-speed gearbox
driving the rear wheels only. Body modifications improved the
car’s dynamics and, although similar wide wings and arches were
used along with a more aggressive nose and a larger rear wing, the
whole effect was more subtle than the slightly ‘tacked on’ look of
the 993 GT2. Power was not the only objective and the car’s weight
was reduced by 200 pounds from the basic 911 Turbo which, when
combined with stiffer springs and other suspension modifications,
resulted in superb handling. In period, this was the fastest road car
Porsche had ever produced.
Naturally, the expectation was that the GT2 would ‘go racing’
however this was never the factory’s intention. The requirements of
the bean counters to build the car in significantly higher volumes
than its predecessor, and the fact that, at the time, the 3.6-litre,
naturally-aspirated Mezger engine was now the Porsche power plant
with sporting pretensions, meant that the GT2 was always pointed
at becoming a top of the range, intercontinental, ‘supercar’.
However, to appease those who had been hoping for a new ‘turn-key’
racer, the Clubsport was introduced. The Clubsport package offered
fire-retardant cloth-lined Recaros, six-point race harnesses, a bolt-in
rear roll cage (front section supplied separately), fire extinguisher,
and a battery cut-off switch.
According to its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this 996 GT2
was completed on 04/12/2001 and first registered on 01/01/2002.
It was optioned with the Clubsport Package (M003), Red seatbelts,
top-tinted windscreen and a CDR-22 CD/radio. Finished in Arctic
Silver (X1X1) with a Black Clubsport interior, it was dispatched
to the supplying dealer, AFN in Guildford. Having recently been
part of a collection of significant Porsches, the car has obviously
been lightly used by its last few owners as the accompanying
MOT test certificates indicate that it has covered less than 10,000
miles in the last eight years. The most recent of these was issued
on 22/04/2017 at 39,073 miles with no advisories. The Service
Records are complete with 10 stamps in the book from Porsche up
until 2008 and marque specialists thereafter, the most recent being
on 15/07/2016 at 37,512 miles. The owner’s file contains a large
number of invoices going back to 2009. These invoices total just
over £28,000 and suggest that not a single penny has been spared
looking after the health of this rare car. Far too many to detail here
(please feel free to enquire at the Documents Desk) but the latest
indicates that the limited-slip differential was removed, stripped and
cleaned before being rebuilt with a ‘Motorsport’ diff pack at a cost
of £2,000.
Also in the history file with the Certificate of Authenticity, invoices,
MOT test certificates, V5Cs, and Service History are the Porsche
GT2 Press Release and a couple of ‘Total 911’ magazines with
contemporary reports.
Only 66 996 GT2s were built for the UK market in 1992, and only
17 right-hand drive Clubsports were built during the whole of GT2
production (Series 1 and 2), so this is a very rare car. These cars
have now achieved a ‘cult’ status with a growing following and one
in this condition that has patently been well cared for would make a
very astute purchase.

Possibly the ultimate version of the 3.2 Carrera was the ‘Option
M491-Turbo-look’ or ‘Supersport’ as it later became known in the
UK. Initially, Option M491 was only available on a Coupé and had to
be ordered through the ‘Special Wishes’ programme, but was later
extended to include the Targa and Cabriolet in 1985, before becoming
an official model available from dealers in 1986. From 1987 onwards
these dramatic versions were officially known as SSE (Supersport
Equipment), and the cars in this final three-year run up until 1989
were fitted with the more user-friendly G50 Getrag gearbox.
‘M491’ was not just a sop to the excesses of the 1980s, with flared
arches evoking the appearance of some dramatic Porsche models
from the past, but was a popular option offering the ‘macho’ good
looks of the Turbo without the mechanical complexities. However,
it was not cheap adding over £10,000 to the cost of a standard
variant by the end of the model’s life in 1989, possibly explaining the
relatively small build numbers. The SSE specification also included
a limited slip differential, the stiffer suspension and superior braking
system from the 930 Turbo, a wrap-around deep chin-spoiler, the
famous ‘tea-tray’ rear spoiler, and wider Fuchs alloy wheels. The rarity
of Supersport models is undeniable, especially in right-hand drive,
but official figures are hard to come by. A respected source quotes
that just 651 C16 (UK-supplied) M491 cars (including all Coupés,
Targas and Cabriolets) were manufactured between 1984 and 1989.
The sparkling Porsche presented here has to be seen to be believed.
It is a privilege to be able to offer for sale a car of this standard – it
is simply one of the most well-preserved cars we have ever seen.
It’s an original C16, right-hand drive, 1988 Porsche 911 Sportsport
(SSE) 3.2 Carrera Targa, which has remarkably accrued just 20,000
genuine and verifiable miles. It’s believed to be one of just 33 C16
RHD Targas produced in 1988 and possibly the only one in Grand
Prix White paintwork with a corresponding white leather interior,
including the option of the desirable ‘Sport’ seats. This striking
combination would appear to be all original (apart from the bonnet,
which has been professionally repainted), and the car’s condition is
commensurate with its very low mileage and meticulous upkeep over
almost 30 years. The indicated mileage is supported by the fully
stamped service book and an impressive history file including many
MOT certificates and a wealth of invoices.
The car has been enjoyed by three previous keepers and has not
been offered for sale in almost 10 years. During his tenure, our
fastidious vendor has kept and maintained the 911 to an exacting
standard, entrusting it to his local Porsche Centre for regular
servicing, with the technicians there regularly pointing out that
they have never seen a better example! Indeed, the car is so good,
it won a Porsche Club GB Concours d’Elegance event without even
trying, merely being parked in the car park. Our vendor attended the
event as a spectator, returning to his car to find a trophy adorning
it! He was accordingly invited back into the event where the car was
universally revered.
This car presents, both mechanically and cosmetically, in simply
superb condition. It has never required any major work due to its
regular servicing, low mileage, and garage storage. Rarely have these
true classic 1980s 911s lived such a pampered life in the hands of
so few owners – let alone a rare Supersport model. Small details like
two sets of keys, factory and supplying dealer stickers still in place,
a complete Porsche tool-roll (still in its bag!), jack and inflation
kit, help support this dutiful ownership. This is simply a lovely and
genuine example of one of the most sought-after models from a
classic period in the history of the 911.

When the 964 was first brought to market, Porsche were keen to
emphasise that, although it was patently still a 911, it was in fact 85%
different from the outgoing model. The design featured more integrated
bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, the most significant of
which was the availability of four-wheel drive. The displacement was
now up to 3600cc, producing 250bhp, power steering and ABS brakes
were now fitted as standard, and the torsion bar rear suspension was
replaced with coil springs and shock absorbers. Careful attention
to the aerodynamics reduced the drag coefficient down to 0.32,
and with virtually zero lift, stability and road holding at high speed
were greatly improved. A new feature was the retractable spoiler,
which automatically extended at 50mph and in addition to seriously
increasing downforce, also doubled the volume of cooling air fed into
the engine compartment. Fitted with a five-speed manual gearbox as
standard, most variants were reputed to be capable of 0-60mph in 5.3
seconds with a top speed of over 160mph.
The car presented here is a right-hand drive (C16), 1990 964
Carrera 2 fitted with a manual gearbox. This impressively genuine
car is one of the best examples of a 964 we have seen. Looking
resplendent in the rare colour of Velvet Red Metallic (81L), with a
correspondingly bold interior, it’s hard to believe this is a 27-year-old
car, such is the level of preservation. It was supplied new through
Glen Henderson-Porsche of Edinburgh on the 1st August 1990. The
service history is comprehensive with regular entries from ‘Douglas
Cameron Porsche’ of Perth and ‘Glenvarigill Porsche’ of Edinburgh
up until 61,669 miles. It was then cared for by Porsche specialists
‘Morrison Motors’ of Glasgow up until 86,964 miles in 2013. The
car has had just two previous owners and is accompanied by its
original purchase invoice, a huge history file, its original tools, jack,
compressor and original spare keys.
Our Porsche-enthusiast vendor, who has a small collection of
special cars, bought the car some years ago and has used it
sparingly. After purchasing the best 964 Carrera 2 he could find
from a well-respected independent retailer of classic cars, he spent
approximately £9,000 on the car, building on its already superb
condition to improve it yet further, belying its current mileage of
96,000 miles. The effect of this, plus its dutiful ownership history,
means the car drives and presents like one that has covered half
this mileage. We really like this Velvet Red Porsche and welcome any
inspection.

The 1976 Porsche 924 was a complete departure by the company,
in that it featured a front-mounted, water-cooled engine. The 1984cc
engine was essentially an Audi unit that Porsche then tweaked to
125bhp. The power went to a rear-mounted gearbox/transaxle and
the advantage of this layout was that it gave the car near-perfect
weight balance that naturally improved the handling. The 924 was
clothed in a pretty two plus two body shell that featured a large
glass hatchback giving access to a relatively large rear boot, making
this a very practical sports car. The 2-litre engine, which powered
the earlier models, developed 125bhp and the maximum speed was
in excess of 125mph. Things were to improve, however, with the
arrival of the 924 S, which was fitted with an ‘all-Porsche’ designed
2.5-litre engine with 163bhp available. With its sure-footed handling,
the car was to prove a great success and nowadays is a popular
choice as a potential future classic.
This UK 924 S was supplied new in February 1987 by Follett Porsche
in London to Mr. Ashley Munir who purchased it as a gift for his
daughter. From new, it was fitted with power steering, a sunroof,
electric windows, an alarm, and a Hamilton Palmer music system,
all factory fitted. The car was her pride and joy and she used it very
sparingly, covering just 6,600 miles during her 27-year tenure.
It has been maintained and serviced by main Porsche dealers on
four separate occasions from new, including all the fluids being
changed, and is supplied with its original book pack and service
history. It has to be seen to be believed as the condition is truly
exceptional and is offered directly from its second private owner,
an established collector and highly valued client of Silverstone
Auctions. An amazing and extremely rare opportunity to buy a totally
original and highly usable classic Porsche that is, pretty much,
unchanged since new.

From 1978 onwards, Porsche revised the 930 Turbo with a larger
3.3-litre, turbocharged and inter-cooled engine that produced
300bhp. They also added the famous ‘tea tray’ and from the mid
1980s onwards offered firstly an SE specification and more latterly
an LE specification, both of which featured vented rear wheel arches
to cool the rear discs, sill extensions (the same as the ‘flat-nose’
option), along with a special interior soft leather trim, and polished
wheel rims.
In 1985, Glenn Tipton – the lead guitarist and songwriter of the
legendary heavy metal band, Judas Priest – decided to order a new
911 Turbo for himself. Learning of the new SE derivative from his
local dealer, Swinford Motors of Stourbridge, he ordered a car in
the one-off colour of Chiffon White and arranged to collect the car
from the factory whilst touring in Europe with Judas Priest. Not
surprisingly, he was enormously excited by his ballistic new toy and
the Turbo continued to impress as the months went by, so much, in
fact, that he was inspired to write the platinum-selling album - ‘Turbo’
- and also launch the successful single ‘Turbo Lover’. This car became
his pride and joy and he has owned and maintained it with great care
ever since, keeping the mileage down to just 14,100 today.
We are privileged to offer this important car for sale for the very first
time in its entire history. In preparation for the Sale, Glenn has sent
the car to highly respected specialists, Two plus Two, for a complete
service, which also included fitting new injectors and a fresh MOT
test on 21st June 2017.
Cars with this type of unique history, single ownership, and known
provenance rarely come to market and this special Porsche is a real
opportunity for the enthusiast and collector alike. If you are a fan of
Judas Priest (and with 50 million album sales there are a few) and
are in the market for an example of Porsche’s legendary 911 Turbo,
then the Silverstone Auctions Porsche Sale on October the 21st is
where you need to be.

Often cited by enthusiasts as ‘the last real Porsche’, the 993
straddles the bridge between pure high performance driving thrills,
visceral dynamics, and appealing design-led solutions to emissions
and safety requirements. No previous 911 variant had possessed
such high-speed cornering ability and dynamic stability aided by the
significantly wider track and all-alloy rear suspension. The six-speed
manual gearbox not only surpassed the previous four and five-speed
boxes in usability, but most commentators also found it to be a
quicker reacting and a smoother gear change, enhancing the whole
driving experience.
This UK-supplied, right-hand drive 993 Carrera 4 Cabriolet was
registered with its first owner on 26th February 1996. Finished in
Arena Red Metallic with a full Grey leather interior, this four-wheel
drive example is fitted with the torquier and more powerful Varioram
engine with a 6-speed gearbox. The Arena Red colour coding is
extended to the hood, which is in super condition and is fitted with
a new rear window, along with the electric sport hard-shell backed
seats. With just over 81,000 miles on the odometer, this smart
Porsche presents fantastically well on the exterior and the cabin is
free of any wear and tear. Porsche overmats, fitted from new, have
ensured that the carpets have aged well and the dashboard and
switchgear remain in good condition.
It’s supplied with a UK V5C, a comprehensive history file containing
old invoices and previous MOT test certificates, the original leather
book pack with the original handbooks, and the service book
showing 16 stamps from both main dealers and marque specialists.
The 993 has become very topical over the last few years and a C4
Cabriolet in this smooth colour combination and in this condition
represents an opportunity to own a modern-classic Porsche 911 that
will become more sought after with each passing year.
