(including buyers premium)


Lot details
Registration No: FND513F
Chassis No: 12800656
Mot Expiry: Sept 2015

- LHD and imported from Florida by its previous keeper

- Tan interior, Fuchs wheels, 5-speed manual, 1.6 litre engine

- 1 of 5,598 Karmann-bodied Coupes made for the 1968 MY

Further info:

The 912 was Porsche's entry model for the 911 range and initially substantially outsold its six-cylinder sibling. Production ran from 1965 to 1969, during which in excess of 32,000 were manufactured. The vast majority were Coupes, 5,598 of which were bodied by Karmann for Porsche during the 1968 model year. Enthusiastic 912 customers included the German autobahn police. This tidy-looking left-hand drive 912 Coupe features Red bodywork that's teamed with a Tan-coloured interior. The Porsche was garaged at its sole UK registered keeper's Florida holiday home before journeying back across the Atlantic last year. It is currently displaying an unwarranted 63,000 miles and is regarded by the vendor as having `good' bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, four-cylinder engine and four-speed manual gearbox. It represents a rare opportunity to acquire an apparently unmolested classic Porsche that's spent much of its life in a rust-free environment.

PLEASE NOTE: The engine number of this lot is 755443 which according to the Porsche 356 and 912 Serial Numbers Reference Site (www.356a.com) is correct for a 1968-model year Karmann-bodied Porsche 912 Coupe.
