Merv Posted 22February, 2022 Report Share Posted 22February, 2022 I thought I would put this here first. A recent health concern has suggested that I need to reduce my number of cars. I am going to soon publicly advertise my Midnight Blue 996 Turbo. The car has only done 55,000kms and is in outstanding condition, with not a scratch anywhere. It still looks and smells like new inside. It has a very strong service history and has been extremely well cared for. It has never been on a track or had any kind of accident. It has the Tiptronic S 5-speed gearbox which perfectly suits the massive torque characteristics of this AWD car and is one of the most durable gearboxes ever used by Porsche. The Sport Techno wheels are unmarked. It is capable of 'monstering' any road, yet rides compliantly around town. The car has a great list of factory options including: Special Colour Midnight Blue Metallic The ‘full leather’ pack in Graphite Grey with the ‘draped’ leather seats with the bespoke Porsche embossing on the head restraints Park Assist Carbon fibre sill protectors Becker/Bose radio/music system, now with added (hidden) Bluetooth phone and music streaming Unmarked upholstery, interior and carpets Sport Techno Wheels and spacers Very Good Service history from original sale in 2003 to 2021 (including annual and PPI inspections) includes service hand book and receipts from: Porsche Centre Perth, Porsche Centre Melbourne, Cascone Auto Sport Melbourne, Porsche Centre Sydney South and Blitz Autoworx Sunshine Coast Qld. The car is at the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. Price $140,000 Contact: Merv 0458306017; mervhyde@gmail.com MichaelF, Naldz88, tomk86 and 19 others 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
