The Gold Cup Classic & Performance Car Auction
2001 Porsche 911 Carrera 2
Registration - KAZ 7911
Chassis No. - WP0ZZZ99Z1S600680
M.O.T. - 12 Months
Odometer - 113,000
Stylishly presented in dark blue, this example of Porsche’s 911 Carrera 2 is from the 996-generation, and comes with the 3.4-litre flat-six water-cooled engine used across the Carrera models at the time. That is matched to a five-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, while ‘KAZ 7911’ is fitted with Turbo-style Porsche alloy wheels finished in grey, making for a classy exterior specification. Inside, the 996 Carrera 2 is trimmed in grey leather, with seats and door cards upholstered, while the dashboard, centre console, and steering wheel are in matching grey.
Offered for sale with a comprehensive service history, ‘KAZ 7911’ has a full book of stamps, plus a large number of bills and receipts documenting maintenance carried out. Reaching sale with 12 months’ MOT, the Porsche 911 has been in the vendor’s ownership for a little over 12 months of the car’s 23 years on the road, and has covered an indicated 113,000 miles. The current keeper reckons it is in ‘good’ condition throughout, covering descriptions of the engine, transmission, electrics, interior, bodywork, and paint.
- Well specified example of a sought-after Porsche 996
- Comes with comprehensive service history and folder of paperwork
- Model offered in good overall condition
The fifth generation of Porsche’s iconic 911, the 996 was manufactured from 1997 in all three body styles – coupe, convertible, and targa. The two most significant new features were the ‘fried egg’ headlight clusters, rather than rounder units found in 911s before and since, and, more importantly, the change to a water-cooled engine from the traditional air-cooled units. Offered initially in coupe and cabriolet forms, the 996 came with rear-wheel drive and the 3.4-litre six cylinder engine, before seeing that expanded to offering four-wheel drive in the Carrera 4 later on. In 2000, Porsche introduced the Turbo version, with four-wheel drive and a larger 3.6-litre twin-turbocharged engine, before focused GT variants – GT2, GT3, and GT3 RS – were presented to the public before its replacement in 2006.
