About this car

This is a 1982 911 SC shell turned into a Carrera RSR 3.0 homage. The body had a full rotisserie restoration in 2014 and a respray in 2023. It wears Hellgelb with period sponsor decals, wide glass-fibre arches and a tea-tray style rear spoiler, and it is now protected by paint protection film.

The engine is a 3.5-litre flat-six built by air-cooled specialist Nick Fulljames. It has independent throttle bodies, forged steel rods, high-lift RSR cams and an 8,000rpm limit, and it makes a claimed 350 bhp in a car under 1,000kg. It is paired with a rebuilt 915 five-speed manual and a Quaife limited-slip differential. Other changes include bespoke Öhlins suspension with Elephant Racing components, 917-derived four-pot brakes and gold BBS wheels.

Inside are bucket seats, Schroth harnesses, a roll cage, a fire extinguisher and an external battery cut-off. It is set up mainly for fast road use but could be taken to club events. A history file holds invoices for the build and later work by Autofarm, Centre Gravity and GT One, along with magazine features. The page shows 13,721 miles and 12 months of MOT.

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.
