CSC present for sale this superb classic 996 Carrera 2 Aerokit Coupe finished in rare Schwarz Metallic. This early 996 ticks many boxes for the enthusiast who is looking for a drivable modern classic, which also offers investment potential.

A classic 2 wheel drive, manual transmission coupe with below average mileage and a fantastic service history record. The car sits nicely on the M030 sports suspension with the GT3 style factory Aero-Kit and alloy wheels giving the car a real presence on the road. The Stunning Schwarz Metallic paintwork has a several metallic undertones which allow the colour to change from a metallic black to bronze, purple and green depending on different lighting.

Inside, the 996 features full Savannah Leather which is in simply stunning condition with no major marks or wear and complements the Schwarz paintwork perfectly, ok, if your one for an understated and bland interior, maybe this interior isn’t for you, but if you’re looking for 911 which is gives a sense of occasion each time you open the door, then this hits the spot. The superb 2 way-electrically adjustable hard back Sports Seats look great and offer the perfect balance of comfort and support along with electrical heating for those crisp winter drives out.

The car is in superb condition throughout and thankfully retains the majority of its original early features including the highly sought after M030 sports suspension and hard-back sports seats which add further to the driving experience making this example a true driver’s car.

The car drives impeccably with light but precise controls which make getting behind the wheel an absolute pleasure. The engine is quiet and smooth at idle and pulls strongly in each gear with plenty of low down torque and strong acceleration higher in the rev range. These early water cooled cars offer a very analogue driving experience compared to the later models with very few driver aids, and old fashioned controls such as a cable operated throttle and hydraulic power steering. This is a true and pure modern classic 911.

The driver focused options on this Carrera include the M030 Sports Suspension, hard back Sports Seats, Short Shift gear change and Sports Steering Wheel. These, along with the GT3 Aero-kit, 2 piece GT3 Style alloy wheels and an aftermarket switchable Sports Exhaust make for a fantastic drivers car, and one which could easily be enjoyed on the occasional track day should the owner wish to enjoy the 911 owner experience to the full.

HISTORY:
The car was first registered on the 09th July 1999 at JCT600 Porsche, Newcastle upon Tyne and returned to the same dealer for its first service in July 2020. The Service book shows 15 service stamps and an accompanying file includes many service and maintenance receipts, MOTs and general history paperwork over the cars life.

The file shows that once the 3 year manufactures warranty came to an end an extended Porsche Warranty plan was taken out and ran until September 2008. Any major repairs would have been carried out, likely by Porsche centre Cardiff during this period.

The 996 stayed largely within the OPC network for servicing and maintenance until 2010. The car has since been maintained through independent specialists, being sold to the last owner through Adrian Crawford Porsche in 2022. The clutch was recently replaced at 66,000 miles by Weissach Porsche in Middlewich during the last service around 1000 miles ago. The Service Book shows the following details:-
