This is a particularly good example for the year and mileage with desirable specification and large file of service history. An early 996 Manual currently represents the most affordable way into 911 ownership with prices sure to rise in the future.

Supplied new by Porsche Wilmslow on the 19th of May 2000 ('W' reg) to 'Rhodar Ltd' who owned for 6 years. It was then purchased and a cherished number applied '915 NAE' for the next 7 years. Our original customer owned from January 2016 to 2023. We then supplied to our regular customer who has owned since 2023 and done very little mileage. The V5 shows just 6 former keepers from new.

The clutch and gear change are a pleasure with genuine new clutch fitted by Porsche at 67k miles. Premium Pirelli tyres fitted all round with excellent tread. There are no warning lights on the dashboard after extended test drive. This is a particularly good example for the year and mileage. A genuine car. Supplied freshly serviced / inspected. Any test drive or inspection welcome.

The wheels are very clean with no ingrained dirt or scuffing damage to edges. The large Dansk exhaust pipes are very clean and look superb. Original under bonnet stickers still present.
