The 993 generation of the Porsche 911 was the final iteration of more than 30 years of development of the iconic air-cooled flat-six engine, for which the 911 is so famous. The 993 drove just as well as it looked, being the first 911 with a modern multi-link rear suspension and a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. With these features, the 993 was able to reach 0-60 mph time of around five seconds, and a top speed of around 170mph. The 993 was known for its unique style and design. It featured all-new headlights that were integrated into the body, giving it a more modern look. It also featured a curved windscreen and a redesigned rear spoiler, which improved both aerodynamics and aesthetics.

This example is beautifully presented in Polar Silver with a grey leather interior and dark blue carpets, which shows very minimal signs of wear. It is fitted with the all-important manual gearbox, far more suited to the car than the Tiptronic offering. The car has been fitted with Turbo twist alloys and has been maintained very well, with records of services at Porsche main agents and specialist workshops throughout the years. The car was specified from new with both air conditioning and a sunroof, and being a Carrera 4 variant, it has four-wheel drive. This 911 is supplied to auction with a V5C registration document, MoT test certificate valid until December 2024 and a comprehensive history file containing many bills for work across the years and a stamped service book.
