2009 Porsche 911 Turbo

This car is offered from outside of the European Union. It has been imported under temporary admission customs bond and is therefore subject to Dutch import tax (9%) on top of the winning bid price. Cars less than 30 years old will pay 10% Dutch import tax plus 21% VAT on the hammer.

The winning bidder will receive a receipt for the final hammer value, as their proof of purchase.

This vehicle has been on static display for a number of years and the documented history available is limited to that displayed in our photography section.

We have not tried to start or drive the car, and cannot vouch for its mechanical viability or functionality. It will require recommissioning prior to road use and is sold ‘as seen’.

In common with many vehicles from the vendor’s collection, the car comes with no history or service records, although it does have its original manuals and a set of Porsche build sheets and specification lists.

The car starts and goes, although, as it needs recommissioning, we have only driven it a few metres. Therefore, we can therefore only comment on its cosmetic appearance.

This exceptional 911 Turbo was produced in what some consider the best year for the 997 Turbo series. The 2009 model year is the last year of the Hans Mezger designed turbo engine while also featuring the updated Porsche Communication Management (PCM) 3.0 system from the 997.2 variant.

We think this LHD 2009 911 (997.1) Turbo is in outstanding condition and has the look, feel and quality of a car that has seen virtually no use.

The chassis number is WPOZZZ99Z9S760821.

The engine number is 62903064.

We believe it was ordered new in June 2009 in Switzerland for the vendor’s collection.

The car’s odometer shows just 1,424 kms – in other words, little more than delivery miles.

This ‘Cognac Brown Metallic’ car with a ‘Natural Brown’ leather interior looks stunning from every angle and is, in our opinion, a particularly unusual and attractive colour combination.

The paintwork is lustrous, bright and shiny.

The bodywork looks to have no dinks, dents, creases or folds of significance that we can see.

The panels are straight and even.

The trim, badging, lights, lenses and other exterior fixtures and fittings are all as they should be.

Even entirely standard stone chips are largely conspicuous by their absence.

The wheels are equally impressive.

In short, it looks like a brand-new car.

The interior of the car looks equally untroubled by the passage of time and offers a warm and inviting ambience of brown leather upholstery with ‘Exclusive’ yellow stitching, beige carpets and brown mats (also with yellow edging).

All of it looks pretty much immaculate and in pristine condition.

The seats have no creases. The door cards are very good. So, too, is the headlining (including the sunroof), the dashboard, the steering wheel, gear selector and all other interior bits and pieces.

The front luggage space is, unsurprisingly, as good as everything else.

The satin-finish wood inserts are in excellent order throughout.

All visual clues point to the fact that this is an interior that has seen almost no activity since it rolled off the production line at Zuffenhausen.

We can’t make any claims about the full functionality of switches, knobs, levers, toggles, buttons, dials or other electrics as we haven’t driven the vehicle more than a few metres.

The engine and undersides of this car are what you’d expect to find on a car that’s been kept warm, dry and inside for most of its life and has under 1,500 kms on the odometer.

This car doesn’t come with any history or service records, aside from its original manuals, a Certificate of Conformity, and some Porsche build and specification sheets.

It must be registered in the country of your choice and you will need to contact the appropriate vehicle licensing agency for instructions on how to do this.

None of the paperwork shown in the gallery in any way constitutes any kind of licensing or registration certification.

The documents in the photo gallery are photocopies.

For many, the 911 Turbo is considered the ultimate 911, possessing all of the creature comforts that Porsche enthusiasts have come to know and love, while being able to achieve a 0-60 time of only 3.9 seconds in this iteration.

Provided that the engine and mechanicals prove to be as good as the rest of this virtually showroom-quality vehicle, then this barely run-in supercar must surely represent a particularly rare opportunity to acquire a best of breed 997.1 Turbo with little more than delivery kilometres on the clock.

We’re confident to offer this car for auction with an estimate of €50,000 - €80,000.
