Porsche 911 Carrera 4 S Targa

The 997-generation 911 Carrera 4 S Targa combines the 3.8-litre flat-six, four-wheel drive and a six-speed manual gearbox, a combination that is increasingly sought after as the 997 generation moves into collector territory. This 2008 car is finished in Carrara White over black leather sport seats, with the Targa's panoramic glass roof and electric sun blind adding an open-air dimension without the compromises of a full convertible.

The specification is strong for a car of this type. Factory options include 19-inch Carrera Sport wheels, the Sport Chrono Pack, a sports exhaust, red tail lights and the Extended Leather Pack, along with heated seats, a BOSE sound system, satellite navigation and rear parking sensors. PASM adaptive damping and PSM stability management are fitted, and the silver dials, body-coloured centre console, seat backs and side skirts, and crested headrests give the interior and exterior a cohesive, carefully ordered look.

Mileage is just 29,952 from new, which is very low for a car approaching two decades old. It was previously sold and serviced by Paragon, the East Sussex Porsche specialist, which offers some continuity of history. The car is now listed as sold.
