This 2009 Porsche 997.2 Carrera is a second-generation 997 and, as such, has the all-new DFI 3.6-litre flat-six engine, which is more efficient and powerful than ever. It also boasts the rare six-speed manual transmission which is a joy to use.

The Arctic Silver Metallic paintwork is complemented by a full Stone Grey leather interior with, unusually, Silver Grey seatbelts which look very smart.

The car features cruise control, rear Park Assist, heated seats, PCM3 (Porsche Communication Management) with touchscreen sat-nav, Bluetooth phone connectivity and a Universal Interface for playing music from your phone. There’s also an Alcantara headlining, PSM (Porsche Stability Management) and a handy 12-volt power socket in the passenger footwell.

The Porsche comes with a well-documented service history. As well as being serviced every two years, in line with Porsche’s schedule, the previous owner has had additional oil changes done every year. The next scheduled service is not due until September 2021. Four new Michelin Pilot Sport tyres were fitted in 2020. The car is in superb condition, inside and out.

Philip Raby says: “The Gen2 997 is one of my favourite Porsches, and this 3.6-litre manual is a true driver’s car, with just the right spec.”
