Description
With 5 owners in total from new, FSH and low mileage for the year, this is a great opportunity to acquire this rare, manual, highly specced, Porsche 997 Carrera coupe in well-maintained all-round condition.
Atlas grey, with black leather interior, the car was purchased by the present owner in early 2021, before being maintained by market leading independent Porsche specialists, regardless of cost, since.
In addition to the standard specification for the model year, the vehicle also benefits from an extensive list of optional factory equipment including, but not limited to:
- 19” Sport Design alloy wheels
- PASM electronic damper control
- Electric memory seats
- Sav Nav
- Rear PDC
- BOSE sound package
- Aluminium “Tequipment” gear lever
The service book is stamped as below and accompanied by a pile of supporting invoices, detailing a hopefully compelling schedule of ongoing maintenance.

Sep ’21 New AC condensers
Sep ’21 Zunsport protective grills fitted
Feb ’22 New Clutch and RMS
Feb ’23 Gear selector cables replaced
Mar ’23 Engine coolant tank replaced

All original handbooks and both remote keys are present. Drives faultlessly, exactly as a well maintained, low mileage, original and unmolested example should.
This really is a brilliantly versatile vehicle, which marries its smooth ride, relentless performance and thoroughly engaging handling, with great practicality for a sports car from the trademark 2+2 layout. In the present ownership it has been used for several holidays, both in the UK and abroad and is very reluctantly offered for sale.
