Porsche 997 Gen 1.5 (911) Turbo manual coupe 2009

Highly desirable 911 Turbo.

A rare opportunity to own one of the estimated 50 manual gearbox 997 Gen 1.5 Turbos delivered to the UK.

This unique version blends the revered 480 hp 3.6-litre twin-turbocharged M97/70 Mezger engine with specific Gen II upgrades. These include the PCM 3.0 touchscreen navigation and Bluetooth system, updated air-conditioning controls, and a redesigned key. With power distributed through the all-wheel drive system, it delivers breathtaking performance: 0-62 mph in just 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 193 mph. Simply epic.

This Basalt black metallic example was originally supplied by OPC Newcastle in September 2008 (for the 2009 model year) to the first of just 5 keepers.

Previously supplied by Williams Crawford, this Turbo boasts a full and reassuring maintenance history. A file of invoices and receipts details 10 services, plus a new clutch and flywheel fitted at 31,000 miles – evidence of proper care and serious investment by committed owners.

The most recent service was completed just 25 miles-or-so ago here in our workshop.

Specification includes:

• 19 inch Turbo two-tone forged alloy wheels.
• Sport Chrono Package Plus.
• Electric tilt and slide sunroof.
• Black Zunsport front air intake grilles (not featured in these photographs or video).
• Rear ParkAssist.
• Bi xenon headlight system with headlamp wash.
• Full black leather interior with silver contrast stitching, extending across the seats, dashboard, centre console and door panels.

• Automatically dimming interior and exterior mirrors plus rain sensing wipers.
• 2-stage paint correction and Gtechniq ceramic coated (Summer 2023).

The 997 Turbo remains one of the finest all-rounders ever made – civilised enough for daily use, but with the ability to shift into true Supercar mode in an instant.

The words ‘911 Turbo’ has long stirred the hearts of enthusiasts around the globe. Now is your chance to experience its legendary status first-hand.
