The Porsche 911 is one of the most enduring sportscar designs ever conceived, with its distinctive silhouette, rear-engined layout and air-cooled flat-six becoming instantly recognisable hallmarks of the marque. Introduced in 1963, the 911 evolved considerably over the following decades, with the 3.2 litre Carrera models of the 1980s representing one of the most desirable and usable iterations of the original air-cooled formula.

This right hand drive Targa began life as a 1971 Porsche 911T but has since undergone an extensive transformation into a very accurate 3.2 litre Supersport-style example. The conversion includes the distinctive steel widebody front and rear arches, a later 3.2 litre engine, a complete late-1980s-style interior and the highly desirable 1980s Turbo Fuchs alloy wheels. Finished in Midnight Blue with a beautifully contrasting Linen leather interior, the finished product is, to the untrained eye, almost indistinguishable from a genuine 911 Supersport, with the added appeal of the open-air Targa configuration.

Acquired by the current owner in 2025, the Porsche joined an established collection of interesting and desirable motor cars. It has been kept as part of that collection but, as is often the case when owning several special cars, not everything gets the use it deserves. Consequently, the decision has been made to offer the 911 for sale, presenting an opportunity for its next custodian to enjoy a rather individual interpretation of the classic air-cooled Porsche and what looks like incredibly good value.

Combining the character and charm of the early 911 with the muscular appearance and specification of the later 3.2 litre Supersport, this is an appealing alternative to the considerably more expensive original factory examples. With its attractive colour combination, Targa roof and extensive upgrades, it offers plenty of presence and an unmistakably Porsche driving experience. Consigned by Fraser Smith
