2006 PORSCHE 911

I'm selling my driver’s spec (slick roof, manual, M030 suspension) Porsche 997 Carrera 3.6l.

The car has been meticulously maintained, including a clear borescope inspection (09/25). Over £14k has been spent since 2020 to address all major 997 preventative jobs. This includes the full engine-out ‘Over-Engine Coolant Pipes Package’ at Friends Green Porsche, a new clutch and dual-mass flywheel, and a comprehensive water pump and belt overhaul. The car has had six specialist services in the last 13k miles and six years, and comes with a comprehensive file of invoices and history.

Please contact me with any questions or to arrange a viewing.
