  • Introduced in November 2014 at the Los Angeles Motor Show, the 991 Carrera GTS sits between the Carrera S and GT3. Standard specification includes a power output of 430 PS, Sport Chrono Package, manual gearbox, Sport Exhaust System, Dynamic Engine Mounts, 10 mm-lowered suspension, Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTM) system, LED daytime running lights with Porsche Dynamic Lighting System (PDLS), Sport Design front spoiler, Sport Design side mirrors and 20-inch centre-lock wheels. 0-60 is dispatched in 3.8 seconds with the help of Launch Control.

    This particular UK-car was purchased new by Silverstone Auctions MD, Nick Whale, from his former dealership - Porsche Centre Solihull in March 2015 and has been fully maintained by them ever since.

    Finished in Guards Red with black leather upholstery, carbon finish dash and interior and also a black electric hood. Further options include a red rev-counter, cruise control, electric sports seats with memory, sat-nav with telephone, cruise control and silver sports wheels.

    Being a rare seven-speed manual, and also one of the last normally aspirated 911s ever made, this car looks and drives superbly and has been a joy to own. It both looks and sounds like a 911 should and is “probably the best car I have ever owned” said Nick recently. He also knows that the car has had no accident damage or paint rectification of any kind from new and has benefitted from indoor winter storage, film protection covering the nose, and proper main dealer maintenance throughout. The car is on its third set of correct Pirelli tyres fitted recently and also had dealer Porsche Wheel Alignment and Geometry check and set up at that time.

    Guided to sell today, this rare, one owner car with known history from new represents a real opportunity.
