1986 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 3.2 SUPER SPORT

KEY FACTS

• A highly original example of the iconic sports car, presented in fantastic overall condition and with an appealing factory specification.
• Under the engine lid is the 3.2-litre air-cooled flat-six, which produces 231bhp and drives the rear wheels via the ‘915’ five-speed manual transmission
• First registered in January 1986, the car was acquired by its last private keeper 32 years ago, and is now offered for sale via the trade.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Ordered with the M491 ‘Super Sport Equipment’ option, this Carrera features the 911 Turbo’s wider, more muscular bodywork, but is powered by a naturally aspirated 3.2-litre flat-six.
• Additional ‘Super Sport’ changes include the Turbo’s axle brackets, stabilisers and more powerful brakes.
• Today, this 911 is as it left the factory, finished in timeless black paintwork with a grey leatherette and pinstriped velour interior.
• Equipment includes an electric sunroof, electrically adjustable seats and a rear wiper.
• It rides on the correct set of 16-inch Fuchs alloy wheels, which feature black ‘petal’ spokes and silver rims, and are in great shape.
• The car will be supplied with its correct handbooks, stamped service book and a number of MOT test certificates and invoices for its past maintenance.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• The black paintwork has previously been resprayed and is in very good condition, with a few marks including stone chips on the nose and door mirror covers, as well as slight bubbling on the front bumper.
• The exterior trim is in great shape, and there are no cracks in the light lenses or the rear reflector strip.
• Inside, the cabin is very smart indeed, and while there is some slight wear on the driver’s seat’s outer bolster and small scratches to the grey leatherette on the side of the passenger seat, these are minor imperfections.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical issues with the car, nor are there any warning lights showing on the dashboard.
• The car’s last MOT test was conducted on 16 June 2021 at 73,921 miles, resulting in a first-time pass with no warnings or advisories.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This 911’s most recent maintenance was carried out in June 2021 at 73,921 miles by Brookfield Garage, who adjusted the front wheel bearings and greased the steering wheel slip ring.
• Prior to this, Brookfield Garage performed an oil and filter service in July 2020 at 72,007 miles, as well as replacing the driver’s door wiring loom, tending to other sections of faulty wiring, replacing perished breather hoses, cleaning the throttle body and replacing the rear passenger-side wheel bearing.
