Overview
Rare classic with impressive preservation and upkeep.
Accompanied by a large folder of invoices, receipts and MOT certificates documenting the ongoing maintenance over the lifetime of this car.
The most recent owner has invested a huge amount of time and money to ensure a rosy future for this beautiful 911.
Significantly, following remedial repairs to the usual 993 scuttle areas etc. the car had a complete repaint in its original shade of Ocean blue metallic. Carried out towards the end of 2021 by Kent based SP Vehicle Repairs, accompanied by photographs of the process.
Distributor caps, rotor arms and HT leads, front brake discs and pads, plus a heater control unit were all replaced just 2,500 miles ago
Regularly serviced, 22 in total, the clutch was renewed at 70,000 miles, all four Bilstein shock absorbers at 74,500 miles, plus lots, lots more.
This 1997 RHD 993 Targa manual is one of just a suggested figure of 333 which came to the UK. Why they were so rarely ordered is a mystery, probably to do with the cost. However, in today’s market, these classic 911 have a lot to offer the enthusiast.
A 993 Targa offers the best of both worlds; coupe aesthetics, but at the touch of a button, open top motoring.
This is an April 1997 example, with the 285 bhp Varioram motor, teamed up with the 6 speed manual gearbox.
17 inch Targa alloys with full colour Porsche crest centre caps.
Inside you are treated to black and Marble grey with the hard-backed, electrically adjustable Sports seats and air conditioning.
The original radio/cassette has been updated with a Kenwood unit with CD/USB/SD/iPod-Receiver and Bluetooth module built-in.
Offering the classic air cooled Porsche experience, yet totally usable on a daily basis on modern roads, a 993 makes real sense; great performance and driver feedback, ideal for enjoying those B road blasts or setting off on a European tour.
