DESCRIPTION
- The car presented here is a 2005 Gen 1 997, 3.8-litre Carrera S specified with the ‘drivers’ choice’ of the manual 6-speed (G97/01) gearbox (which was reinforced by Porsche for the ‘S’ model)
- Fitted with the more powerful 3.8-litre flat-six offering 350bhp and 0-60 in 4.4 seconds on its way to 182mph
- Classically presented in Basalt Black but unusually has a Sand Beige interior which appears unmarked

- Showing just 49,000 miles by its two keepers supported by a FSH, carried out by Porsche specialists
- Recent new clutch and dual-mass flywheel fitted with invoices in the file
- Supplied with two keys and a full book pack and guided very sensibly at £20,000 - £25,000
