Description

Photos to follow

This beautiful 1997 Porsche 993 Carrera Cabriolet is finished in elegant Ocean Blue Metallic (which is slightly brighter than the more usual Midnight Blue) with a Marble Grey leather interior, complemented by Metropole Blue dashboard and a matching blue convertible hood. The classic colour combination is both stylish and understated.

The Porsche has covered 109,000 miles and, being one of the last 993s, it is powered by the Variorum  flat-six engine, paired with the Tiptronic automatic transmission for effortless cruising. It sits on genuine 18-inch Technology Turbo Twist wheels.

Inside, the car benefits from newly-refurbished electrically height-adjustable Sports seat and a modern Sony head unit. Additional features include air conditioning, an onboard computer, and a brand new convertible roof which was fitted in 2024 at the cost of over £2000.

The Porsche has a well documented service history, with a fully stamped service book backed up by invoices going back to 2012. The last service was in March 2025 when the brake fluid was also changed, and the car hasn’t been used since.

This is a well-presented and properly maintained example of the final generation of air-cooled 911s – a car that’s equally enjoyable for relaxed touring or top-down summer driving.

Philip Raby Specialist Cars is refreshingly different. We like to build a friendly relationship with customers; before, during, and after you buy from us. You won’t get a hard sell but you will get friendly and professional advice to ensure that we find exactly the right car for you. We have sold hundreds of Porsches and other specialist cars and have a vast experience to share with you. We are based in the historic village of Bosham, on the south coast of England, nestled between the South Downs and Chichester Harbour, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s a lovely area to visit and you are still very welcome to come and view our stock or just have a chat about cars!

Each car we sell goes through a thorough mechanical inspection and any faults found put right before sale. This ensures that your new car is ready for you to enjoy from day one, without you having to worry about a thing. In the unlikely event you have a problem, we include a six-month warranty underwritten by us. We stand by this warranty so, if you have any issue with your Porsche, wherever you are in the UK, we will work with you to put things right, without any quibble or fuss. So do please get in touch for a chat and to arrange a visit or a live video – please click here for finance details.

Philip Raby says: “This Cayman looks great, all in black, and the specification is spot-on. It’s also great value for money.”
