Introduced in 2004, the 997-series of Porsche’s iconic 911 allied all the technological improvements of its 996-series predecessor – a lighter / stiffer bodyshell, better suspension / brakes, four-valve cylinder heads and a superior HVAC system – to more classical styling. Available in Carrera or Carrera S guises when launched, the latter boasted a more powerful 3.8 litre engine (rated at 350bhp/295lbft), sports exhaust, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and 19-inch wheels as standard. Reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.6 seconds and 182mph, it soon became a driver’s favourite.
Finished in Silver with Black leather upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in ‘very good overall’ condition with regard to its engine, six-speed manual gearbox, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork. The water-cooled flat-six was checked for bore scoring at 60,000 miles (35,000 miles ago) and the 2+2-seater has also benefited from new coil springs all-round and an overhaul of its front suspension. Well maintained by main dealers and (more recently) marque specialists, ‘M200 POR’ boasts a sunroof and the desirable ‘Sports Chrono’ pack which comprised a dashboard-mounted stopwatch and a sport button that simultaneously stiffened the suspension, taughtened the throttle response and slackened the traction control. Offered for sale with history file, fresh MOT and Parrot Asteroid system.
