1991 PORSCHE 911 (964) CARRERA 4

KEY FACTS

• This Porsche 911 (964) Carrera 4 is a smart air-cooled classic, which benefits from a recent full engine rebuild and a few high-performance upgrades.
• Under the rear engine lid is a 250hp naturally aspirated 3.6-litre flat-six, which drives all four wheels via an engaging five-speed manual transmission.
• It was acquired by the vendor eight years ago, and it has fastidiously documented maintenance over the last 10 years.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• This 911 is finished in black paintwork per the original specification and features grey leather-trimmed sport seats with the large bolsters.
• It rides on a set of Porsche ‘Cup’ alloy wheels, and the cabin is now equipped with a Momo Mod7 sport steering wheel and Rennline pedal board – though the original airbag wheel and pedal board are included in the sale.
• The car also has a Continental stereo head unit.
• During the full top and bottom end engine rebuild, it was fitted with a 996 GT3 crankshaft and a Dansk exhaust with a cat silencer bypass pipe.
• A KW Variant 3 suspension kit has been installed, which has been set up for a balance of fast road body control and everyday comfort.
• Stopping power now comes from a set of 911 Turbo ‘Big Red’ brakes.
• A set of Cup mirrors have been fitted to the exterior, along with clear front indicators and repeaters, and a set of wheel spacers.
• While the service book is not present, the car is accompanied by a raft of maintenance invoices and a spare key.

CONDITION

• There is no known bodywork damage.
• Except for the roof, its black paintwork was resprayed in 2021 and various minor corrosion repairs have been performed. It is now in generally excellent condition, though the vendor has reported some signs of age-related wear on the rear light clusters, which could be easily replaced.
• Inside, there is some surface wear to the seat bolsters, but this could be easily improved with a professional re-connolising treatment.
• The air conditioning needs to be recharged, and the seat height adjuster is broken, but there are no other known faults.
• The most recent MOT test was on 8 December 2020 at 192,814 miles, which was a pass with one advisory to monitor a minor oil leak.

SERVICE HISTORY

• Its most recent service was in June 2021 at 193,412 miles, where technicians at GT One performed a 6,000-mile service, replacing the engine oil.
• The engine was rebuilt in 2019 at GT One, which included the fitment of a GT3 crankshaft and a clutch overhaul.
