• Desirable Carrera 4 example
• Left hand drive manual example
• Desirable colour combination

Known internally as the 964, Porsche's new generation 911 debuted in 1989 and was available in two (Carrera 2) and four-wheel drive (Carrera 4) guises with its familiar silhouette clothing a radically revamped platform. Boasting a drag coefficient of just 0.32 thanks to its deeper bumpers, smoother sills and flatter floorpan, high-speed stability was maintained by a self-deploying rear spoiler which rose above 48mph. Powered by an extensively reworked 3.6 litre air-cooled flat-six equipped with twin spark plugs per cylinder and a re-mapped Bosch Motronic fuel injection, the 964 claimed an impressive 250bhp and 229lbft of torque. 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 964 was the last air-cooled 911 produced by the Stuttgart firm and, in so doing, represented the end of an era. The Carrera 4 representing the most user-friendly and driveable of the Carrera family.

This example is presented in grey with a black interior and is the desirable Carrera 4 model, which is presented in manual left hand drive guise. The bodywork is showing some signs of age in various areas and the interior is well. Previously registered as a category D insurance loss the 964 has more recently been treated to extensive mechanical work to the tune of circa £30,000! Offered with various invoices, old MoT test records and the current UK registration document, this is surely excellent value given the recent expenditure. Quick, comfortable and reliable; Porsche's holy trinity. Consigned by Daniel Godin
