This 2005 Porsche 996 Turbo S Cabriolet Tiptronic is one of just 1500 Turbo S cars produced and we believe only 93 right-hand drive Cabriolets came to the UK, so this is a very rare beast, indeed. It’s an exciting one, too, as the S came as standard with the X50 Powerkit which raised power 30bhp to 450bhp, which gives a top speed of 190mph. This really is a supercar! To help cope with this power, the Turbo S also boasts PCCB ceramic brakes with trademark yellow calipers.

This example is finished in Basalt Black Metallic, complemented by a full black leather interior, and boasts an impressive specification. It has fully electric seats with driver’s memory, cruise control, rear Park Assist, Litronic headlamps, silver dials, silver instrument surround, silver central vents, auto-dip rearview mirror, automatic wipers, plus the usual Turbo refinements. It also has a folding wind deflector which fits behind the seats to reduce buffeting.

The car comes with a documented service history and was last serviced in February 2018 at 63,846 miles.

Philip Raby says; “Any 996 Turbo is a treat, with its legendary Mezger engine, but the 996 Turbo S a true modern classic and a wonderful car to drive and to own. The extra power and torque is immediately noticeable and, whether you’re on a cross-continent blast, or navigating winding country lanes, roof up or down, a Turbo S is hard to beat.”
