Developed under the watchful eye of Porsche Chief Executive Peter Schutz, the 911 Carrera 3.2 made its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show of September 1983. Estimated to be 80 percent new, the model's 3164 cc (hence '3.2') flat-six engine was credited with developing some 231bhp and 209lbft of torque. Allied to a five-speed manual transmission, it proved both rev-happy and flexible, making the model capable of 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds and a 153mph top speed. In order to cope with the increased performance, the brakes were enlarged and the top two gear ratios slightly raised. Among other improvements was a redesigned timing chain tensioner – the Achilles heel of the earlier engines.

Manufactured in 1985, the 911 offered was supplied new by Porsche Stuttgart, being delivered new on the 12^th of July 1985. Finished from the factory in Porsche Guards Red paintwork with a complementary Black half leather interior upholstery with the pinstripe cloth insert, the Porsche remained in Germany for less than a year before finding its more permanent home in Switzerland by 1986. A resident of Switzerland for the subsequent sixteen years, the Porsche arrived on UK shores in 2002 and was in the previous ownership, that of the editor of ‘911 & Porsche World’ magazine, from 2003 until purchase by the vendor in 2008. Documented in the magazine on several occasions, the Porsche featured in buyers guides and staff car sections. Offered now having been with the vendor for sixteen years, the 911 has 208,000 kilometres on the odometer, the equivalent of some 129,000 miles.

Receiving a new clutch at c.105,000 miles (equivalent), the 911 was maintained by Steve Bull Porsche specialist between 2003 and 2018, there are numerous invoices on file for improvements and maintenance completed during this period. While in the vendor’s ownership, the Porsche has received a new fuel pump in 2018; new crank sensors and housing (costing some £1,300); and in May this year new brake pads and exhaust silencer. With the desirable 8/9 inch Fuchs, ‘B158 AUC’ is accompanied by a large history file that contains the book pack with the stamped service book that contains fourteen service stamps. Also included contains a collection of MOT certificates back to 2002, a current MOT until May 2025 with no advisories, copies of ‘911 & Porsche World’ magazine featuring the car, and a current V5C document showing two former keepers.
