+ - SERVICE HISTORY / PREP WORKĪ formidable servicing record is with the Porsche, which evidences the meticulous care that all of its previous keepers have taken with it. Pirelli P Zero tyres are fitted, with 5.5mm of tread to the front, and new fitted to the rear. During our preparation process, we have renewed an array of suspension components (detailed below), resulting in a 911 that is utterly tight through the steering wheel and handles fantastically through the bends. The large “S” brakes provide great stopping force and have recently been renewed in all four corners, so have very little wear.
The six speed manual gearbox provides a rifle-like gear change and the clutch is light with a positive bite, having been renewed on at 50,341 miles. The cost of this work was £12,943.60, which included six new liners and installation of the stronger variant of IMS shaft and bearing.
Most notably, on, at 57,324 miles, the engine underwent a comprehensive rebuild with Porsche engine rebuild specialists Hartech. Mechanically the 997 is in wonderful condition, having had all of the work that these cars often require at this age carried out.
