SILVERSTONE AUCTIONS - Four stunning 911 Turbos on offer at the Classic Motor Show Sale

Four stunning 911 Turbos on offer at the Classic Motor Show Sale 40 years ago Porsche unveiled its first turbocharged road car. Drawing on lessons the company had learned competing in America's Can-Am racing series, the first 911 Turbo had a 3.0-litre engine producing 276bhp. The rest they say is history. Now, with news that every new 911 will house a turbocharged engine, the classic models could well be your only chance to experience the true spirit of the 911 Turbo. Four stunning 911 Turbos will be offered in our two-day sale at the Classic Motor Show on November 15th and 16th.  As well as this, Porsche GB will also make its Classic Motor Show debut with a unique display of around 13 to 16 freshly restored Turbo and Targa models. These fantastic cars continue to be in demand, and, with Porsche prices rising, could prove to be a great investment. Read on for more details of the cars we have for auction at the NEC.

1979 Porsche 911 930 Turbo   This 930 Turbo was one of the last 50 built for the USA and was imported to the UK in December 2012. Early in 2013 work commenced with Tuthills and a complete mechanical overhaul of the car was carried out which included replacing all tyres, sonically cleaning the injection system, rebuilding the fuel metering unit and fuel tank, as well as replacing all worn parts where necessary. It is offered with ten months MoT and ten months road tax (and the original steering wheel) as well as all bills and receipts. This is a matching numbers car from new and we recommend an early inspection that can be arranged prior to the auction. Estimate (£): 40,000 - 46,000 Read more here

1987 Porsche 911 Turbo   Offered here is a Porsche 911 Turbo finished in the great combination of Grand Prix White with immaculate cream interior. The history file shows it is an original UK car first delivered to Northern Ireland. There are sixteen service stamps in the book but more recently it has benefited from being in the ownership of Steve Andrews of Spa Engineering, Newmarket who are renowned Porsche specialists. The various invoices in the history file show that it has had a full engine and gearbox rebuild approximately ten thousand miles ago. The overall appearance of the bodywork still remains in fine order and with the mechanical work recently carried out it now represents a great opportunity to own a still undervalued supercar of the day. Estimate (£): 30,000 - 35,000 Read more here

1994 Porsche 911 964 Turbo 3.6   This is one of those extremely rare and sought after cars that was built new in left-hand drive for the German market (as designated by the '00' chassis number). Today it is a matching numbers car with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity to prove. It has a comprehensive history file which confirms the mileage throughout its life and is offered with a warranted 46,000kms from new (28,500 miles). This car has EU taxes paid and the vendor has applied for a NOVA, however, if this car remains in the UK it will require registering. Offered from a significant private collection it is in outstanding condition and has all original body panels and original factory paintwork. This is an original and highly collectable car, ready to use, and represents a rare opportunity in a fast moving market. Estimate (£): 135,000 - 155,000 Read more here

1996 Porsche 911 993 Turbo X50   The 993 series is well placed in the 911 spectrum, encapsulating the unmistakable magic and unique feel of the air cooled era whilst offering a modern yet involving driving experience. The 993 Turbo is the last of the air cooled era and is widely regarded as one of Porsche's most desirable 911 variants, although it still has classic timeless style and performance is still very respectable today. Delivered in August 1996 via Stratstone Porsche, Wilmslow to its first owner, this 993 Turbo was sold to its second owner and has been owned by him since 1998. Having covered only 54,000 miles, the car is described as in exceptional condition. It is finished in Polar Silver with Flamenco Red soft leather interior and boasts four wheel drive, dealer-fitted X50 motorsport pack, twin K24 turbo chargers, sports exhaust and additional oil cooler. With a comprehensive history and service history found in the file, including records of mileage and usage, this car has been lovingly maintained from new. A recent service and MoT have been carried out and this car would make an ideal everyday classic supercar. Estimate (£): 75,000 - 90,000 Read more here
