1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Cabriolet

The 911 Carrera 3.2 made its debut at the Frankfurt motor show in September 1983, reviving the "Carrera' name for the first time since 1977. Although it remained an air-cooled 'flat-six', the '3.2' engine was 80% new and incorporated an effective cam-chain tensioner and associated lubrication system that at last addressed a perennial 911 shortcoming. This enlarged and extensively revised new engine produced 231bhp, 27 up on its predecessor, endowing the Carrera with excellent performance. 0-60 in 5.3, 0-100 in 13.6 seconds and a top speed of 152mph were figures not too far away from the legendary 1974 Turbo.

It's in Porsche's DNA to refine their models over long production periods focusing on factors such as functionality, performance, and design and so, naturally, during the 6-year production run of the 3.2 Carrera, many options and iterations were available for customers when ordering their new 911.

Dating from 1989 this fabulous Cabriolet is one of the last of the 3.2 Carreras. Supplied originally by Charles Follett in London, it's an original C16, UK specification, matching numbers, Sport model with the G50 manual gearbox, sports seats and electric windows and mirrors. This car has been extremely well looked after and has an excellent service history.

Recently professionally repainted in Baltic Blue Metallic, its already superb exterior finish is enhanced by a new Dark Blue electric soft top and complemented by a full Marble Grey interior and period correct, black centred, Fuchs alloys.

It has covered 126,000 miles and spent 10 years with one owner who used the same specialist for all the car's requirements for a number of years. Consequently, there is a complete set of invoices and documents (at least 30 pages), detailing its maintenance and service records. The car is also accompanied by its original service manuals in the Porsche leather folder as well as the old Warranty Document, some older MOTs, and the new 12 months MOT recently carried out.

This is a great opportunity to own a remarkably pretty, unmolested, right-hand drive, UK Carrera Cabriolet with an excellent service history.
