1989 PORSCHE 911

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2026 on Sunday the 15th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Estimated price: GBP 30,000 - GBP 35,000.

The Carrera 3.2 Sport was a UK-only model and came factory-fitted with a black lip front spoiler, rear 'whale tail' spoiler, Sports seats (more dished squabs) and Bilstein Sport shock absorbers

Powered by a 3.2-litre air-cooled flat-six with Bosch Motronic engine management generating 231bhp fed through the desirable 5-speed Getrag G50 manual transmission and a robust hydraulic clutch

First registered on 19th January 1989, this late-production 911 3.2 Carrera Sport Targa has been with its current owner since 2007

Finished in Guards Red with a black leather interior and matching carpets, complemented by electrically adjustable sports seats with contrasting red piping

Prior to ownership, the Porsche was subject to substantial restorative work, completed in 2007 at the Haynes Motor Museum, including a complete respray, bodywork repairs, replacement trim and extensive mechanical attention

Since completion of this work, it has covered approximately 13,000 miles, described as predominantly dry-weather summer use

Further expenditure during current ownership has included new front brake calipers, fuel tank, fuel lines and fuel pump, stainless-steel heater flap valves, handbrake cables and fresh gearbox oil, together with further attention to the bodywork

The accompanying invoices also document extensive expenditure during the earlier restoration, including attention to the exhaust, oil system, brakes, drivetrain and electrical systems

With almost two decades of current ownership, limited mileage since its restorative work and the appeal of the late-production 3.2 Carrera, this Guards Red Targa offers an appealing opportunity to enjoy one of the most usable air-cooled 911s.
