There's no doubting the 997's ability to put a smile on your face - and the 997 C2 doesn't disappoint.
The sixth generation of 911, which launched its legacy in 2004, offered a little more sophistication to the design compared to its predecessor, increasing the appeal of a new generation of water-cooled 911s. In addition to its unmistakable styling and strong engineering, Porsche's ergonomics department created an interior that was aesthetically pleasing and offered additional room for both passengers and luggage. Not only did the 911 continue to be one of the greatest rear-engine sports cars ever made, but very few vehicles could match its reputation and craftsmanship.
First registered in May 2006, this Carrera with the desirable six-speed manual gearbox is presented in the classic Arctic Silver finish and grey leather interior combo. Fitted with the durable 3.6-litre flat-six engine, it comes with a regular service schedule and evidence of careful ownership over the years. There is an upgraded media centre to enjoy, as well as recent attention to its suspension to make the most of that driving experience, it comes with a current MOT valid until June 2025.
We think this could be the best opportunity to grab a future classic for a rather modest outlay.
This listing was written from information supplied by Darren after meeting Tracey the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.
