The Appeal
While they had dabbled with the Targa “safety cabriolet” for several yeatsPorsche first introduced a proper convertible version of the 911 in 1982. Unsurprisingly it was a big hit, as nothing beats a convertible sports car on a sunny day.
A cabriolet is still a fixture of the 911 range, and here we have a smart 996 from 2004. Boasting four-wheel drive and a manual gearbox, this example is sure-footed and engaging to drive in equal measure, making it the perfect candidate for year-round use. For the colder months, it also has its removable hard top, which effectively turns this cabriolet into a svelte coupé.
Offered in very good condition, with just 74,460 miles on the clock and extensive Porsche service history, this 911 has everything going for it. The MOT runs until October 2024, so don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to get your hands on a ready-to-go Porsche!
