Porsche 993 C2 Targa

‘For some drivers a coupe is too closed, a cabriolet too open.

Some drivers only want the open top experience once in a while,

making even the drive to work feel like a holiday.

The new 911 Targa is the model for them.’

…It was the model for us. We kept it twenty years!

We are the fourth ‘keepers’… the car was reliable every day

transport for the first decade, but we use it less since retirement.

We enjoyed it for many years on holidays, when driving on the

continent displayed the car at its best.

GCR Central, an independent Porsche specialist, has maintained

the car throughout the years since we bought it on 3rd July ’05.
