This is my third 911, my second 993. All have been Targas.
Sadly for sale due to relocation with work.
I've owned this car since Sept 12th 2014, when I collected it from Classic Chrome in London with the intention of keeping very long term.
It took me over 9 months to find an example I was happy with.
I've since spent a considerable amount of time bringing this car up to excellent condition.
Here's the history:
Delivered 2nd June 1998, by PCGB Reading.
According to PCGB records, there were only 3 993 Targas registered in 1998 - so this is one of the very last 993s!

In the two years I've owned her, I've replaced the aging suspension with Koni FSDs and Porsche M033 springs, had the seats and key fobs professionally refurbished, and replaced many other parts like HT leads, Distributor caps and the all important windscreen wiper widget!!
Brin Jones, a well regarded bodyshop in the South West, addressed the rust issues around the windscreen, rear quarterlight, and replaced the rusted out rear PU supports.
Car will be at the Silverstone Classic event on July 30th and 31st on the Porsche Club GB 993 register display, or can be viewed in South Cambridgeshire by prior appointment.
I'd really love this car to go to another true enthusiast.
