Introduction
Kulraj Singh Salh
The Carrera's 3.2-litre engine was no slouch in its time.
Considered the ultimate development of the original 911, the 3.2 Carrera has crafted a solid reputation for itself since its launch in 1984. Its previously upwardly mobile image with carefree decadence and wealth are now redeemed, and its become something of a masterclass in engineering durability, but it is its character and ability that are the main reasons why these beautifully styled cars are still sought after.
All 3.2 Carreras featured galvanised bodies from new, which combined with their first-class build quality and subsequent specialists attention, the 911 is easier to maintain than one would expect. One of the major selling points of the 911 is the consistent updates Porsche carried out on the car throughout the '80s and its key feature was the boxer 3.2-litre engine, which addressed many of the previous generation cars shortcomings. Combined with the G50 gearbox, the 3.2 Carrera established itself as one of the best 911's to drive. It also approached the performance of the original 1974 Turbo version, in a much more manageable yet still striking package.
However, the majority of cars no longer need to prove its worth around the M25 and many are in the hands of occasional drivers, enthusiasts and those who lusted over the 911 as youths. Finished in a very appealing Metallic Marine Blue hue, David has owned this 3.2 Carrera Targa since 2003. He has kept on top of the maintenance demands himself, and it has passed most of its MOT's without a hint of an advisory. With the very best cars approaching serious money, well looked after enthusiast-owned 911's with solid bodies are next in line. This could be the very car to scratch that 911 itch.
This auction listing was written from information supplied by Kulraj after meeting David the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

I WANT ONEAsk Questions
Hi Dave are you happy to sell to a overseas buyer?
I’m located in Australia
Cheers
As long as it doesn’t cost me anything I dont mind who buys her
Morning Dave. Could I ask what your best guess is for the actual covered mileage please? Thanks
I’m guessing but about 90.000
Hi Dave. I see last MOT runs out in February. Can you arrange for a new MOT prior to delivery? Thanks. Rob
I’ll see what I can do but rear sway bar bracket on drivers side is broke I didn’t notice before it was posted someone messaged me when they see video on trade classics so it may not pass until that has been repaired was going to try and get it fixed but due to this covid 19 I’ve been working 7 days only had 1 day off in last month
Many thanks Dave
Hi Dave, quite a few questions I’m afraid – can you confirm the condition of the kidney bowls, does the Targa roof leak or suffer from wind noise, does the air con work, other than you who carried out work on the car, how did the o/s valance by the exhaust get damaged and do you know who fitted the exhaust, has the car had any accidents to your knowledge?
Thanks
John
Target top dont leak but yes to wonder nouse most are noisey at speed kidney bowls not sure what you mean but to my knowledge there no rust. Had a light bang on the front and she was professionally repaired air con dont work as I had pipes removed that come through bulkhead as never used it any major work was dun by a Porsche mechanic hes name is bill insley a very good mechanic I fitted rear box myself rear valence not all that sure how that happens knocked in a carpark I think hope this answer all your questions
Hi Dave , have you got any idea what the mileage on the car would be ?
I would estimate no more then 95000 as I didn’t use her very often and only did very local journeys to keep her active hope this answers your question
Hi Dave. Do you have any more records to tie up with the history of the car, incl the previous registration? Other service history etc not shown? What about engine or gearbox maintenance other than clutch, oil & filter changes? Do you have the original steering wheel & gear knob. Thanks
No Just what you can see
I did notice on the video that the rear sway bar bracket drivers side is snapped I would have sorted it but didn’t know until someone pointed it out too me u hope you notice it nothing serious
Hello Dave,
Could you also please advise:
A. is this the original paint & colour?
B. have you checked whether the numbers match for chassis/VIN number + engine no + gearbox no ex-factory?
Thanks again,
Michael Owen.
Its number matching as far as I’m aware and marine blue with a hint of pearl
