Previously registered as '15 Y' and '2 VRY', this desirable manual transmission 993 was supplied new by JCT600 Ltd of Tyne & Wear and has been main dealer or specialist serviced at the following mileage intervals:
The most recent maintenance work was carried out by AMB Porsche & Audi of Nottingham.
Notable as Porsche's last air-cooled 911 range, the 993 series was introduced in September 1993. A quantifiable improvement in terms of handling, ride quality and refinement, the newcomer used a monocoque bodyshell that was some twenty percent stiffer than that of the outgoing 964 series. While the adoption of multi-link rear suspension in place of the previous semi-trailing arms brought notable gains in high-speed stability and road noise suppression. Further benefiting from power-assisted rack and pinion steering and four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, the 993 was powered by a reworked 3.6 litre flat-six engine (strengthened crankshaft, lightened conrods / pistons, hydraulic valve adjustment, twin pipe exhaust etc) allied to six-speed manual or semi-automatic Tiptronic transmission. With some 272bhp and 243lbft of torque on tap, it was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and 167mph. The work of Englishman Tony Hatter, its restyled bodywork remained faithful to the classic 911 silhouette but incorporated a more muscular stance with flared wheelarches, flatter set headlights and advanced underbody aerodynamics. Debuting in March 1994, the Cabriolet version boasted a specially reinforced windscreen and snug electrically-operated canvas hood. For many the last 'true' 911, the 993 made way for the water-cooled 996 in 1998.
