2015 PORSCHE 911

Background:

The arrival of the 991-generation Porsche 911 in 2011 represented another significant development in the evolution of Stuttgart's celebrated sports car. Longer, wider and incorporating a revised chassis and more sophisticated technology, the 991 retained the unmistakable character of the 911 whilst offering greater refinement and everyday usability.

Introduced in 2013, the 991 Turbo took performance to another level. Powered by a 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six producing 520PS (513bhp), driving all four wheels through Porsche's seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, it offered remarkable acceleration and effortless high-speed touring ability.

The Turbo also benefited from rear-wheel steering, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and active aerodynamics, technologies that contributed to its impressive combination of performance, stability and comfort.

In Cabriolet form, the 911 Turbo added the appeal of open-air motoring without sacrificing the all-weather capability and everyday practicality for which the model has become so highly regarded.

The Car:

Dating from 2015, this Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet is finished in Black (A1/041) with a matching black leather interior and had covered just 30,600 miles at the time of cataloguing. Described by our vendor as a particularly well-presented example, the car is accompanied by a comprehensive service history and benefits from full paint protection film (PPF).

Powered by Porsche's 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six, the Turbo combines substantial performance with the security of all-wheel drive and the rapid, seamless gear changes of its seven-speed PDK transmission.

The specification includes:

The car has also recently benefited from a pair of new rear tyres.

Service History: The accompanying maintenance records detail servicing by Porsche Centres and recognised specialists, with the following entries:

Condition:

Our vendor describes the Porsche as being in excellent condition overall, with the exterior presenting particularly well. There are some light scratches to the upper surfaces of the headlights, whilst a couple of the alloy wheels would benefit from cosmetic refurbishment. The black leather interior is similarly described as well maintained, with the cabin reflecting the car's relatively modest mileage. The electrically-operated convertible roof is reported to function correctly, and the car is accompanied by two keys and its service records.

With just 30,600 miles indicated, an appealing specification and the combination of impressive performance and open-top motoring, this is an attractive example of the 991-generation Turbo Cabriolet and a compelling proposition for anyone seeking a modern Porsche capable of both everyday use and more spirited driving.
