My dad is going to be selling his 911 very shortly so going to offer it up here first before it goes on the usual sites.
He imported it from the UK approximately 2007/2008 and paid an eyewatering VRT figure, around the current asking price of the car so it wasn't VRT free or anything so they would be a decent rebate owed if someone wanted to go down the road of exporting.
He drove it for 2 or 3 years and then took it off the road as his collection grew and started driving other cars, and it has sat in the garage basically since 2010 or so with alot of other unused cars!
It's just had a decent recommission service done which included replacing both front rads which are prone to leaking on these, some brake lines replaced that were a bit worse for wear, alternator replaced and all the fluids done, Coolant, brake, gearbox, engine, diff etc. I'll check the invoice there might of been a few small bits on top of that also
I put it through the NCT then and it failed on a rear indicator bulb! After 11 years that's all it failed on so retested and it has its provisional cert bar the lift inspection but everything should be in order for that.
Anyway the general spec is below:
1998 Porsche 911 3.4 C4
Silver
Tiptronic (Unfortunately for some but it has its market too)
Grey leather interior
75k odd miles
Full service history, obviously a large gap when it was off the road but no gaps as far as mileage is concerned
Bodywork is excellent, currently getting a full detail and paintwork correction to get ready for sale. One small dent on the rear near the spoiler but more than likely he'll get this done with PDR before sale
Interior also in good fettle no major wear and lines up with mileage
Drives very nice, power where it should be and handles well despite needing tires as mentioned below
Now the bad points in my opinion:
Brakes are a little hard, stop the car perfectly but pedal slightly harder than I'd like
Rubber boot underneath rear spoiler is split, readily available online for not huge money
Needs 4 tires but these will be included at the asking price, I know people have their own preference on tires especially on a performance car so these will be included along with tracking for the new owner, obviously within reason not €300 worth per corner but still a premium tire, for example the rears in a Pirelli P Zero or Michelin PS2 N rated tire are approx €180 for the rears and €140 for the fronts
Other than that I think its in pretty good order as far as I could see but happy to let anyone inspect it at their own leisure who might be more knowledgeable than me on 911s
Asking price for a backroader is €17,000 with the tires
Now unfortunately I've zero photos until its back from its detail which is hopefully early next week, I'll upload them as soon as I get the car back.
