2009 Porsche 911 Carrera

This is a 997.2 Carrera, the post-2009 facelift car that swapped the old 3.6 for the 3.6-litre direct-injection flat-six and the PDK-or-manual choice, and the one fitted here is the six-speed manual. At 345 bhp it's the best-driving of the standard-bodied 997s for many enthusiasts, and the last generation to use hydraulic power steering before the move to electric assistance. It's finished in Basalt Black Metallic over a black leather interior.

The factory options are modest but sensible: a grey top-tint windscreen, an electric slide/tilt sunroof (listed at £864) and floor mats. Mileage is 53,131, and the service record is unusually complete, with ten entries from 17,248 miles in 2010 through to 51,924 miles in January 2026. Those stamps span Porsche specialists, Porsche Centres at Hatfield and Aberdeen, and the selling dealer, and all books and manuals are present.

It's a tidy, well-documented example of a 911 that has settled into a sweet spot for usability and analogue feel, with a manual gearbox that is increasingly sought after. Insurance group is 49E and the car is ULEZ compliant.
