First registered in August 1986 by Gordon Ramsey Ltd, then the Porsche Centre in Newcastle, this stunning Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe SE is finished in Grand Prix White with full Can-Can Red interior including leather seats (piped in Pearl White), steering wheel rim and horn push. Having only had 5 owners in its 25 year life the car has covered just 28901 miles from new, an average of just over a thousand miles a year!
One of 50 UK RHD cars this beautiful example was built with heated seats, electric sunroof, airconditioning, Limited Slip Diff, and a Blaupunkt radio cassette which unusually is still present and adds to the originality of the car.
Factory Turbo SE models benefitted from an uprated version of the 3.3 litre engine found in the standard 930. In standard form this engine offered 300 BHP, in the SE models this was uprated to 330 BHP with the addition of a high lift camshaft, larger turbo and intercooler and an upgraded exhaust system. This brought the 0-60 time down from 5.1 seconds to 4.9 and top speed increased from 162 mph to 171mph.
Despite the car's low mileage it has a huge service history;
