The Porsche 911 is one of the most successful sports cars of all time, a 2-door sports coupe with its distinctive flat six engine mounted in the rear of the car and with independent rear suspension, an evolution of the swing axle on the Porsche 356. First produced in autumn 1963 and still in production today, the engine was an air-cooled until 1998 when Porsche launched the 996 which used water cooling. The 911 has undergone constant development throughout its life and yet the latest 997 generation still utilizes the same concept of engine located in the rear. As the old saying goes, 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it! A hugely successful car in competition, the 911 has scored victories in both circuit racing and rallying and has been modified by both the factory and many private teams over the course of its life. In the mid 1970s, normally aspirated 911 Carrera RSRs won major world championship sports car races such as Targa Florio, Daytona, Sebring and Nürburgring, winning against sports prototypes. The 911-derived 935 turbo also won the coveted 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1979. The Carrera 3 was built for just two years at the end of the production of the 2.7 model and features the same chrome headlight surrounds and window trims. The 3.0 Litre engine produced 200bhp and achieved a top speed of 150 mph with zero to 60 in 6.3 seconds. The car on offer today is a coveted 3 Litre Carrera model which was first registered in June 1976. An original UK supplied car with righthand drive steering, finished with purple coachwork and black leather interior. 489 NOA was optioned with a sports pack that includes a rear spolier and full black leather interior which is presented in excellent condition. A set of Fuchs style alloy wheels are also fitted. A comprehensive history file accompanies the car with numerous parts invoices, old MoT certificates, service bills, full UK V5 registration document and drivers manual. Presented for sale as a light restoration project, the car was taken off the road a year ago and is ready for its next owner to complete the work and return her back to the road. It's worth remembering that the Carrera 3.0 Litre also makes an extremely competent race car and so if you have dreamt of racing a 911, this project could be for you.
