2002 Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 4 Cabriolet - 3.6 Tiptronic
A well-presented and carefully maintained example of the Porsche 996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet, finished in Seal Grey metallic with a Red leather interior. This darker metallic grey is far rarer than the more common silver grey and together with the red leather interior makes a very attractive combination. The black wheels with red brake callipers further enhance the look.
Powered by Porsche's 3.6-litre flat-six engine and fitted with the Tiptronic automatic transmission, this 2002 Carrera 4 offers the combination of performance, four-wheel drive and open-top motoring that makes the 996 such an appealing modern classic.
The car has covered 85k miles and comes with an extensive service history file. It has had 6 former keepers and has clearly been well cared for throughout its life.
Recent and significant maintenance includes:
* IMS bearing replacement
* New rear tyres
* New rear suspension track-control arms
* New air-conditioning condensers
* Dansk sports exhaust system
* Major service completed in December 2025, including new spark plugs
* Next service not due until December 2027
The car also comes with its original-style hardtop, making it particularly useful for winter use and giving the car a completely different character when fitted.
The Seal Grey metallic grey paintwork and Red leather combination suit the 996 exceptionally well, while the Dansk sports exhaust gives the flat-six a more purposeful and characterful sound.
Upgraded infotainment with Bluetooth and hands free mobile phone, removable wind deflector with bag.
A genuine, usable Porsche 911 with excellent provenance, a substantial history file and a good record of preventative maintenance. Very good condition with no more than the expected wear and tear of a well maintained car of its age. This is a car that can be enjoyed daily rather than simply being kept garaged as an appreciating classic. Good examples of the 996 are now getting harder to find and are starting to increase in price. Owned and being sold by a mature Porsche enthusiast!
