2000 PORSCHE 911

Well maintained 996.1 C2 for sale.

17 service stamps, all either Porsche Official or respected specialists.

Lots of money spent on the car, especially over the last 5 years, around £12k.

Suspension refreshed, new Dansk silencers, new brake discs, and plenty more.

From the receipts prior to, and during, my ownership it is evident that what this car has needed it has received.

I've put over 3k miles in the last 9 months, the car has never missed a beat, doesn't seem to consume oil at all which is a great sign of a healthy engine.

It was serviced June '25 last and prior to sale I will get the car its annual oil and filter change at a Porsche specialist (or take £250 off the price if you'd rather get it done yourself).

It's a decent example and the car has the history to back this up. I've actually priced the car pretty low and that's for one reason.

I have service invoices going back to 2010 mostly from Cridfords and Eporsch, but none of these mention the IMS as having been changed. It may well have been, but it's impossible to know without basically changing it, neither Crifords or Eporsch could confirm and Porsche don't keep data records that old. This wasn't an issue for me personally as being a gen 1 996 there's a chance it contains the double bearing and after 25 years I think if it was going to fail it would have done so already. I'll add also being the 3.4l the engine doesn't suffer the failure rates of bore scoring that the gen 2 3.6l's do. Anyway, I've left around £2000 off the price to give the buyer the option to go and get the IMS sorted should they wish and a good something extra towards a new clutch/flywheel should they want to do this at the same time (no issues with either at all at present).

Paint/body work is decent, few swirl marks and blemishes. Alloys are ok, few scuffs on 1 or 2 that some might want to sort today but not enough for me to personally act on today. Interior is ok, some signs of age, but not bad at all. It's not a garage queen, but it presents well, and most importantly mechanically its in good shape.

It's got N rated Michellin Pilot Sport 2 tyres newly added in February this year.

It's been well maintained by me. Always warmed up diligently over 5 miles or 15 minutes minimum before going over 3k rpm. Never used E10 petrol, only the supreme level. Important to take car of these cars.

MOT'd till 04/2027. (the car actually failed it's last MOT intially but on very minor points - a side light and tracking rod dust covers - both fixed as required)

I purchased the car in July '25 from Eporsch, a specialist, who only sell well kept examples that are mechanically decent. This is a good example.

Reason for selling is simply because I want something new....I tend to change sports car every year, though tbh I've no issue hanging on to it. The 996 is definitely starting to gain in popularity. The 996 definitely feels a lovely mix of the raw characteristics of the 993 and the useability of the 997. Just the right amount of car for our roads. I really think it's starting to be appreciated.

Happy to discuss the car in more detail and show it. More pictures/video on request.

Priced very fairly at £16,500. Black
