2012 PORSCHE 911

The 991.1 Carrera S occupies a specific place in 911 history: it's among the last of the naturally aspirated 3.8-litre flat-six Carreras, built before Porsche moved to turbocharged units for the 991.2 refresh. This 2012 example has covered just 32,476 miles from a single owner, supported by six documented services — four at Porsche Centre Hatfield, one at Porsche Centre Cambridge, and two subsequent visits to a Porsche specialist. Books and manuals are present.

The original owner specified purposefully. Sport Chrono Package Plus (£1,084 new) adds PASM, launch control, and Sport Plus mode to the PDK drivetrain, making this the keenest version of the 991.1 to drive. The 14-way electric sport seats (£1,538), 20-inch SportDesign wheels, and white instrument dials round out a focused, driver-oriented cabin. Basalt Black Metallic over black leather is a clean, timeless combination — the Porsche crests on the head restraints the only concession to embellishment. Total options outlay came to £5,702 above standard.

With a very low mileage for its age, an unbroken service record, and a single keeper from new, this is a well-preserved example of a model that continues to be sought after as the last of the naturally aspirated era.
