About this car

The 2.4 S was the last of the pre-impact-bumper 911s, built in 1973 and sitting just below the 2.7 RS in the range with 190 bhp. This left-hand-drive example has a five-speed manual gearbox and is finished in silver metallic with black Sport leatherette seats with corduroy centres. Options and fittings include Koni dampers, a sliding roof and a Becker Mexico radio.

The car was restored in 2006, with a photographic record of the work and invoices covering the bodywork preparation. It came to the UK in 1983 and was maintained by Autofarm until 2007. Specialist Cars of Malton detailed the engine and refurbished the brakes, oil tank and cooler in 2014.

Since 2015 it has been looked after by Strasse, including a full engine rebuild by David Sutherland, and has covered under 2,000 miles since. Fearnsport inspected it and found the underside free of corrosion, and Nick Fulljames set up the engine and fuelling. It shows 95,000 km (59,043 miles), is HPI clear and comes with a comprehensive invoice file.

Porsche 911 buying guide

The Porsche 911 has been in production since 1964 and has kept the same basic layout throughout: a flat-six engine mounted behind the rear axle, two seats up front and two small ones behind. The range runs from the everyday Carrera and Targa to the four-wheel-drive Turbo and the track-focused GT3 and GT3 RS. Buyers choose it because it works as a daily car, is well built and has a large network of independent specialists.
