**REGRETFULLY WITHDRAWN**1972 Porsche 911E 2.4

Porsche produced the 911E from 1969 until 1973, and it was designed to be the more comfortable and drivable of the 911 range fitting in between the 911T (Touring) and the 911S (Super). The designation 'E' came from the German for injection: "Einspritzung" and this referred to the pioneering mechanical fuel injection system (MFI) used on the 911E and the 911S and developed jointly between Bosch and Porsche. The benefits were more power and better driveability with a cleaner running engine. Porsche also conceded that a few more comfort features would be welcomed and the braking system was also improved to deal with the improved performance.

Offered here is a matching numbers, right-hand drive Porsche 911E 2.4 finished in the very pleasing combination of Light Ivory with a black interior. The original service maintenance record shows AFN Ltd. carried out the car's initial service on 24-10-72 after 531 miles. It was subject to very comprehensive restoration in 1994/5 by Marque specialists Autofarm, who are well known for keeping detailed records of their work, and the history file contains a very full inventory of this restoration together with photos and invoices cataloguing the considerable expenditure. At the same time, the colour was changed from Sepia Brown to the current Light Ivory. The car's original specification included a factory steel sunroof. This delightful Ivory 911E presents well today, but would benefit from a little recommissioning as it has stood for some time. It is a striking, solid and usable example of this early seventies matching numbers Porsche.

The 911E was regarded as the most dynamic and best driving 911 in period, and at today's guide certainly looks tempting for the enthusiast or investor.
