2017 Porsche 911 Carrera S

A 991.2-generation 911 Carrera S is a quietly formidable thing: the facelift introduced the 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six, making 420 bhp, and this 2017 coupe pairs it with the 7-speed PDK. It's finished in Carmine Red over a Luxor Beige and black two-tone leather interior, a combination that gives the car far more character than the usual silver or black.

The factory options list is unusually complete. Sport Chrono with Sport Plus and the white-faced Chrono clock sit alongside PASM, Power Steering Plus, a front axle lift system that makes steep driveways and car park ramps far less stressful, and 20-inch RS Spyder design wheels. Inside are heated seats and steering wheel, fully electric sports seats with driver memory, cruise control, keyless entry and drive, front and rear parking sensors with a reverse camera, and the updated touchscreen infotainment with satellite navigation and Apple CarPlay.

The car has covered 37,695 miles since 2017, a sensible figure for its age. It is offered by Paragon in East Sussex, which says the car is fully inspected and sold with a full service, a new MOT and a 12-month parts and labour warranty.
