Item Details
Description


There are very few cars that can boast a history anything like that of the Porsche 911. This was the gem of a sports car that simply blew everything away back in 1964. Since then the 911 has evolved over the years to become one of the world's true motoring legends. Without doubt part of the appeal of this iconic model is that its soul has always remained true to the original design. Porsche started to manufacture the ‘Targa' top 911 from the mid-sixties and kept it in production in various forms right up to the current Porsche 997 Targa. Up until 1993 its original design and popularity had always revolved around the fact that you simply turn two clips, lift the top off, fold it up into about 2/3rds of the original size and store it in the boot and you have a ‘sunny day' 911.

This beautiful 3.2 litre Targa was delivered new on 14th August 1985 to a Mr David Waldren and has had a further two owners since. Having covered a documented 69,000 miles from new, the car is in highly original condition. The shut lines are superb all around the car, along with the paint, which retains a lovely shine. The inner wings retain their waxy dull factory finish and have clearly never been off the car. In addition, the interior is factory original and still in very good order.  

Finished in one of the very best colour combinations of Guards Red with black interior, this 3.2 Targa has just been recommissioned by one of the country's leading Porsche experts, PIE Performance Porsche. Included in the history file is a bill dated 15/3/14 for £2,726.56p, which details a completely new stainless steel exhaust system and service. The original service wallet also documents 18 service stamps and everything from letters from Porsche to radio guidance booklets. The mileage is verified both in the service booklet and with old MoT certificates dating back to the early 1990s. Evidently, this car really has it all, the pedigree, the history and of course the performance. It is a superb example and a true testament to Porsches reputation for building quality performance cars.
