Asked to nominate his favourite Porsche 911 during its 50th Anniversary celebrations in 2013, racing driver and journalist Tiff Needell chose the 996 commenting: "This was the model that brought the 911 into the modern world. We finally got rid of the VW pedals and had a chassis that handled in a much more progressive and controllable manner. Not a convert before completely converted after!" Traditionalists may have decried the 996's water-cooling and Boxster componentry, however, the use of a brand-new platform (the first since 1963) meant that it was notably lighter, stiffer, and more aerodynamic than its 993 predecessor. The 3.4-litre engine developed 296bhp and 258lbft (outputs comparable to those of the 993 Carrera RS's 3.8-litre unit). Allied to either a six-speed manual or five-speed Tiptronic transmission, the free-revving flat-six enabled a sprint to 60mph in 5 seconds and 174mph top speed.
This desirable manual transmission example has only c.48,200 recorded miles. Originally supplied by Merlin Porsche Nottingham on March 1st 2003, it remains in good overall condition throughout, driving well at the time of consignment. It was noted that the heated seats, electric targa roof and sun shade were all in working order when inspected. Offered with history file including bookpacks, service book, 996 companion book, spare keys and current V5c.
