For sale is my beautiful 2002 Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 2 Tiptronic S Cabrio, an outstanding low mileage example of this desirable model in the very rare Polar Silver exterior colour with Metropole Blue interior and hood. Being my first Porsche I looked long and hard to find an exceptional example with provenance to support its condition, and eventually found and purchased this car three years ago from an older member of the Porsche Club of Great Britain.

The previous owner had a very expensive ceramic coating applied to the paintwork (including the hard top) which keeps it in gleaming condition and makes it so easy to clean. Like him, I’ve only used it on dry days and it’s always been garaged. The bodywork is all straight with no parking dents and paintwork is likewise, with only a couple of minor paint chips to the lower front bumper. The hood is in excellent condition with very minor marking/ scuffing considering its age (I’m being picky really), and the folding mechanism works faultlessly.

It has been very well looked after throughout its lifetime with a full service history including an engine rebuild by Hartech at circa. 40, 000 miles which included the upgraded IMS. The RMS has also been done previously.

The vehicle comes with a folder full of old invoices and MOTs, and stamped/ documented service history as below:
