About this Porsche 911

The Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 was produced for model years 1984 to 1989. If you are looking to get into classic Porsche 911's, then the 3.2-litre Carrera line up is a good place to start. Reviving the Carrera name for the first time since 1977, it featured a new higher-displacement power plant, the 3164cc six-cylinder boxer engine producing 231 bhp and this engine addressed the calls for more performance and became the most commercially successful 911 yet.

Over 70,000 units were produced, and they are still plentiful, affordable, and blend the tradition of the early cars with dabs of modernity and comfort. 3.2 Carrera's were offered in all three 911 body styles: Coupe, Convertible, and the Targa, with its removable centre roof panel.

This beautiful Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Targa - Chassis No: WP0ZZZ91ZES140992 and Engine No: 63E04619 is a fully matching numbers car and was supplied new by Charles Follett Limited in Berkeley Street, London W1 to its first owner in London and registered on 17th April 1984. It is finished in its original colour scheme of Grand Prix White with a Black Leather interior piped in White, Black carpets, Black vinyl removable Targa roof panel, 3164cc flat six engine, 5 Speed Manual Gearbox and sitting on a set of 16" Fuchs Alloy Wheels.

The car has a full service history from new with all invoices from 1985 to date and has been exceptionally well maintained during its life by Porsche main dealers Charles Follett, Porsche Centre Reading, Porsche Centre in St Johns Wood, Porsche specialist's Pickup Leask in Hampstead, RUF Automobile in Tunbridge Wells, Autowerke in Norwich and latterly Carrera Performance in Horsham who carried out the restoration and mechanical rebuild in May 2018 at a cost of £22,192.88.

We sold this car to the current owners in July 2019 and prior to his purchase he had the car inspected by Porsche Inspections and their full report is shown in the documents attached, but this was their summary:

"This car, a 911 Carrera 3.2 is a 1984-model year, as denoted by the ‘E’ as the tenth digit of the VIN and third digit of engine and gearbox numbers. 3.2 (3164cc) Litre engine (231bhp) with the five speed (915) manual gearbox, Targa body with black interior. The engine and gearbox numbers are correct for the 1984 model year so this is a matching numbers example.

The Guarantee & Maintenance booklet is the original and shows the supplying dealer as Charles Follett of London. The book is full and there are records up to 1997, but there are lots of invoices dating from 1985 right the way through to the present day. There is also every MOT certificate from 1988 to date. Then there is a gap in the history, up to 2018 when a very thorough body and full mechanical rebuild was carried out (one of the bills for this work comes to over £22k).

As the car is in a 12 month / 12k schedule, the next service is now due, it is not clear when the brake fluid was last replaced and the MOT has expired. The speedometer was replaced in October 1989 by Porsche specialist Pick-Up Leask @ 77,401 miles so the total mileage is around 143k miles. A close visual inspection of the bodywork shows that the car has undergone a very comprehensive and high quality restoration. Some panels have been replaced but the structure appears remarkably original. The repairs that have been carried out (kidney bowl areas) have been done incredibly well.

The shell is free of corrosion and very clean underneath – almost to concours standard. The paintwork is almost perfect with an even finish and no ‘orange peel’. A paint thickness test did not reveal any evidence of filler, apart from the small areas usually found even on unrestored cars (bases of the rear wings). Both sills are solid, as are the suspension mounting points.

Structurally, this must be one of the best examples in the country and is a testament to the restorer.
The interior is well preserved and is clean and tidy throughout. The floor is dry and there are no signs of dampness (unusual for a Targa). The seats and door panels show a level of wear in line with the age and mileage. Some of the carpets are torn and one of the rear seatbelts is missing. A few electrical items are not working - the headlamp washers, a few bulbs and the electric mirrors – the mirrors are later items and may not be compatible. The battery failed a test and needs to be replaced.

The engine has clearly had a thorough rebuilt, it is free of leaks (unusual to see such a dry engine) and many brackets and bolts have been replaced. The exhaust is in excellent shape. There were no leaks from the gearbox either and the oil cooler lines are all good.

The car performed well on test drive with no rattles or knocks from suspension or interior. Although congestion limited the speeds, the engine pulled well and showed good oil pressure, there was no smoking from the exhaust. The gearbox was ok, the 915 has a reputation for being a little difficult and this one was no different, with a slightly vague action. The Targa roof proved to be leaking above both doors (particularly the drivers side).

In summary – the bodywork on this car is fantastic and would be welcome at many concours events.
Overall, highly recommended."

Since we sold the car back in July 2019 most items highlighted in the report have attended to and it has now covered a further 4,029 miles and a total of 147,890 documented miles from new. This car is still in exactly the same condition as it was when inspected back in July 2019 and no oil leaks or any faults whatsover. The only improvements in our opinion would be recovering the original leather seats which show some wear, but thats really it!

This must genuinely be one of the nicest examples currently available for sale and it will also be eligible for Historic Vehicle status from April 2024 and therefore Road Tax free, MOT and ULEZ charge exempt.

Before sale, the car will be given a full check-over and a new MOT and pre-sales service and it will come with our own 6 Month Mechanical Warranty which can be upgraded and extended at additional cost if required.
