Background

Production of the all-new generation 991-series 911 Carrera S began in 2011, it featured a revised 3.8 litre engine with Direct Fuel Injection DFI with increased power/torque, revised suspension system, lighter restyled body, larger air intakes, sculpted LED rear and front daylight running lights, all new Porsche Communication Management PCM 3.1 System with touchscreen, hard drive navigation/music jukebox and Bluetooth audio streaming as well as phone connectivity (as options - fitted to this car). Despite a 100mm longer wheelbase, overall length is only increased by around 40mm and weight is actually reduced by 45kg due to intelligent use of composite alloys that not only add up to 25% rigidity, but reduce weight too. The roofline is actually lower than the previous 997 generation 2, however cabin space has also significantly increased in all dimensions, making this an even more useable, yet stylish, updated 911 with clear classic Porsche lineage.

“Once again, Porsche has hit the nail absolutely plumb on the head with its most treasured sports car and gone straight back to the top of the class. The 991-generation Porsche 911 is a triumph. Those who frowned at the mention of so much efficiency-enhancing technology, or who suggested the 911 would somehow lose its dynamic sparkle this time around, should simply have had more faith in the company that has delivered this incredible car to into its fifth decade. Here’s the bottom line: at the limit of grip, the 991 still handles like a true 911. And during sporting road driving, it communicates, entertains and involves as vividly as any that proceeds it.”

CAR Magazine 2012

Exterior

Our hand selected Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe looks stunning in its gloss coat of Guards Red, a timeless and instantly recognisable Porsche colour, especially with the optional metallic silver Sport Design alloy wheels with colour Porsche Crests. The paintwork condition is excellent, with no blemishes on any panel. The 911 Carrera S has been machine polished and waxed with Auto Finesse Soul Carnauba Wax by us, which will help protect the paintwork and repel surface contaminants. All the trim has a perfect finish, as do the front and rear lights, which are free from any damage or moisture buildup. The windows drop as they should when you open the door. The engine and boot struts also operate as they should.

Interior

The 4-way electric leather sports seats are also height adjustable and come with Porsche Crest embossed headrests. Just like the rest of the Black extended leather interior with contrast Silver stitching, they are in excellent condition and provide a perfect partner to the Guards Red bodywork. The optional Guards Red Seatbelts and Alcantara Sport Design steering wheel with a Red 12 o’clock Indicator tie in well to the paintwork. There are no marks or signs of wear to any of the trim, panels or switchgear, with the leather retaining a wholly fresh appearance throughout.

Engine and Transmission

Our 911 Carrera S is equipped with the 3.8 litre flat six DFI engine, which addressed all previous weaknesses of the 996 and 997 first generation engines. The 911 Carrera S engine produces 400bhp and 325ft-lb of torque. The axle load distribution of approximately 40:60 ensures high directional stability and superb road behaviour. The engine starts cleanly when cold or hot, there is no smoke whatsoever either at startup or when driving. There are no unusual sounds or rattles when the engine is running.

Our 911 Carrera S is equipped with PASM switchable sports suspension system, which includes the dashboard switch that stiffens the suspension in an instant, increasing connection to the road. PASM equipped cars also sit 10mm lower than non PASM cars.

Another addition is the exceptional Akrapovic Titanium Switchable Sports Exhaust System which significantly reduces weight by 9kg and increases headline power by 18bhp. By using the optional Akrapovic sound kit, the driver can fully control the exhaust valves. When the valves are closed, the 911 sounds deeper than stock, but not louder. When the valves are open, expect a completely opposite, pure racing sound, with adrenaline-pumping bangs. Keeping the drone effect away was one of the main tasks. The Slip-On is made of special heat-resistant durable titanium alloy, with computer-designed premufflers, main mufflers, and pipes to deliver more power, more torque, weight reduction, and improved throttle reponse.

One other optional feature fitted to this 911 is Porsche Torque Vectoring PTV, a system that actively enhances vehicle dynamics and stability. Operating in conjunction with the optional Mechanical Locking Rear Limited Slip Differential, it works by braking the rear wheels as the situation demands, to improve steering response and steering precision by specific braking of the right or left rear wheel. To be more precise, this means that when the car is driven assertively into a corner, moderate brake pressure is applied to the inside rear wheel. Consequently, a greater amount of power is distributed to the outside rear wheel, inducing an additional rotational pulse (yaw movement) around the vehicle’s vertical axis. This results in a direct and sporty steering action as the car enters the corner. At high speeds and when accelerating out of corners, the rear differential lock ensures greater driving stability, outstanding traction, as well as greater agility, precise steering, and stable load transfer characteristics. In summary, the 991-series Carrera S with this option offers unrivalled driving pleasure at every twist and turn.

Wheels, Tyres and Brakes

Our 911 Carrera S Coupe comes fitted with the 20-inch Sport Design II lightweight alloy wheels finished in Metallic Silver with optional colour Porsche Crests, which are unmarked, free of kerbing damage and corrosion. The brake discs and pads are in excellent condition with minimal wear, the Guards Red brake callipers are also unmarked. The tyres are Porsche N rated Pirelli P-Zero high performance tyres, with lots of tread left all round.

The car is HPI clear and comes complete with 6 months warranty and roadside/home assistance, which can be extended up to 2 years.
