The Appeal

The 1970 Porsche 911 Classic S is a true icon of the automotive world, renowned for its timeless design and exhilarating performance. Lightweight, attractive, and about as curvy as the 70s could allow without them insisting on a public decency order. This car wasn't as brash as its foreign counterparts - it was a smart, calm and collected. A thinking man's supercar.

This particular example has been preserved in its original, unrestored state. It's a fully matching numbers vehicle, sporting original Porsche Fuchs wheels and a beautiful Ivory paint job contrasted by a black leather/vinyl interior. The car has spent most of its life in Malta, benefiting from the dry, warm air that has contributed to its impressive condition.

Recently passed its MOT inspection, this Porsche is ready to hit the road and provide its new owner with the thrilling driving experience that only a classic 911 can deliver.
