Cool FORSALE: 1998 S - 996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet

My dad's ad on Pistonheads:

£25'995.00

MOT - July 2008
Tax - March 2008

The time has come for me to sell my beloved 911, sadly lack of use forces reluctant sale.

I bought the car in 2002 - the car has been well spec'd with matching hard top, lowered body, sports exhaust, CD player, audio upgrade, grey leather and climate control. The only addition is the hard top stand, wind deflector and a Nokia hands free kit.

Porsche Nottingham has done some of the servicing on the car then I switched to Porsche Sheffield when it opened.

The major replacements have been the vario cam seal, new header tank, 18" Carrera wheels to replace the Krone wheels that came on the car ], new clutch, recent pads and front discs.

It has had annual servicing at dealers and no expense has ever been spared. The overall condition is extreamly good but alas there is the odd blemish.

Proof of fully comp insurance is required before hand if you wish to drive it, otherwise you will be driven.

I will add bits of info as it comes to me.

The car comes complete with hard top, hard top stand, wind deflector and Porsche over mats.
The car was delivered on 18/11/1998

There is a 10 year guarantee on the bodyshell [subject to T's and C's]

13/12/99 10305 mile service [Arlington of Northampton]
22/?/00 21281 mile service [Lindbrook Ltd]
14/02/02 29420 mile service [HR Owen]
15/04/03 34637 mile service [Merlin Nottingham]
11/03/04 39075 mile service [Porsche Nottingham]
13/07/05 43273 mile service [Porsche Sheffield]
17/07/06 44368 mile service [Porsche Sheffiled]
??/07/07 44??? mile service [Porsche Sheffield]

Brake fluid was changed at 21k, 39k and 44k.

Thanks for looking.

Well sort of I guess - I haven't advertised it for a year, so not sure it is strictly the same, but yes indeed she has to go now it just isn't getting used.

And it's my old man's btw.

Looks awesome, always fancied a C4.. but probably a Coupe rather than a Cabrio. However, if he fancies a swap for my Scoob then I'd probably 'make do' with a Cabrio.

Good luck with the sale, looks great.


Cheers,
Grant
