2014 Porsche 911 Carrera S

Among the 991-generation Carrera S Cabriolets, this 2014 car stands out for its well-considered factory specification. Finished in White with a black leather interior, it left the factory with the Sport Chrono Package, sports exhaust (£1,772 new), PDK gearbox, SportDesign steering wheel, and heated sports seats. The inclusion of the '50 Years Edition' optional package from PCGB is a notable period detail — an anniversary package marking the 911's half-century that adds rarity over a standard Carrera S. Black-painted wheels and white instrument dials complete a distinctive look, with options totalling nearly £6,000 over the base car's list price.

The 3.8-litre naturally aspirated flat-six deserves particular attention: the 991.1 is the last 911 generation to use this engine before Porsche moved entirely to turbocharged units with the 992. At 395 bhp it pulls freely to the red line in a way the forced-induction cars don't replicate. At 49,370 miles from new across twelve years — roughly 4,100 miles annually — this is moderately used rather than hard-driven. The service record runs through Porsche Centre Reading, Porsche Centre Guildford (twice), and two independent Porsche specialists, with a major service covering spark plugs, PDK fluid, and drive belt to be completed prior to handover by the selling dealer.

All books and manuals are present, and the car comes with a 6-month dealer warranty and fresh MOT. Rated 50E for insurance and attracting £445 annual road tax, this is a well-optioned, open-top entry point into the naturally aspirated 991 era at a specification that remains hard to improve on in the used market.
