1990 | Porsche 911 Carrera 4

Whilst it is certainly true that there are a number of similarities that follow through from the previous model, the Stuttgart firm have always been very keen to point out that at least 85% of the 964 generation 911, in fact, differed. From the obvious change to the bumpers, through to the increased displacement of the car's motive power, ABS brakes now became standard and careful attention has been paid to the aerodynamics used to reduce the drag coefficient down to virtually zero. The stability and road holding at high speed were also greatly improved with a new retractable spoiler automatically extending at 50mph seriously increasing downforce and doubling the volume of air fed into the engine compartment.

Our vendor purchased this car around 15 years ago and used it as a daily driver for a number of years before an ECU issue around 2016 took the car off the road and other commitments stopped the repairs being finished. The car is in fact a very desirable 'C16' UK supplied non sunroof coupe with that all important manual gearbox. The car is presented in Guards Red with Linen interior and sport seats and air conditioning. This 911 was originally supplied to Ireland, first being registered in the UK in 1995. The car has stood for around seven or eight years, and is sold as a non-runner, so will require some TLC but it is an absolutely ideal starting point for a resto-mod build and with the way 964 prices have gone, it's a very worthwhile project for someone wanting to keep it original. Supplied to auction with a V5C registration document, a very large history file with more than 20 stamps in the service book and various invoices from over the years. Consigned by Fraser Smith
