"The original Porsche 911, with its famous and durable design, was introduced in the Autumn of 1963 and built until 1989. From its inception, the 911 was modified both by private racing teams and the Porsche factory itself for racing, rallying and other competition. The original 911 series is often cited as the most successful sports/racing car ever, especially when its variations are included; namely the powerful 911-derived 935 which won Le Mans as well as other major sports cars races. In 1967, Porsche introduced the 911T model and subsequently a 911E version; however the 911S was the most desirable and with only 3,174 Porsche 911S's manufactured, good quality surviving examples are rare and highly collectable.
This very original classic fuel injected Porsche 911 2.7 S is finished in the lovely period colour of Sahara Beige complimented with a black interior. The car was lovingly owned by a gentleman in the Netherlands since 1998. The car was imported to the UK in 2016 after the Dutchman had passed away.
