Ultimate Provenance
Spectacular collectable low mileage, low owner car with a desirable combination of extremely rare factory options
and a quite remarkable story. Only one previous keeper, the original owner loved his 911 and kept it for 17 years. This
affair began in 1998 when Mr Hagen ordered his 911 from Stuttgart and travelled to Germany to collect it personally
when it was built and ready in 1999. The following day, he drove it back and registered it here in the UK.
Everything is well documented.. the order forms, original bill of Sale DM145,000, German documents and forms and
even Mr Hagen's ferry & fuel receipts have been preserved. Total complete history from before day one!
A huge file of history accompanies with all 6 keys and even the barcode tags makes for a complete car for the purist
collector.

Condition
The car is altogether very original, it's never had any cosmetic work aside a stone chip touch up. It has never been
painted, not many cars can claim that. This is pure factory Porsche, an immaculate low miles low owner original car in
all respects with great provenance/. The coachwork is superb with minimal marks & little in any way that belies it's age,
very little to disappoint and it will surely look good in any stable. Everything in excellent working order as Porsche
intended. Having covered less than a mere 4300 miles per year as an average the engine is in sound order with
superb power. The cabin shows little wear on any items. 6 keys accompany, 2 sets of 2 remote keys and 2 valet keys..
2 of these keys have never been used. Pure Porsche in nice clean low mileage order.

There are many images below showing close ups of the paint finish around all the rubbers and door handles shut lines
and trim to cleary show the original paint finish. I can say with confidence this car has never been painted.



Drive/Tyres/Alloys
This 996 handles beautifully with perfect driving dynamics and rock solid stability thanks to the amazing rare
options list and the correct set up being used. Tyres all have deep treads and the rims are largely unmarked.
A look inside the wheels reveals recent brakes on each corner and nicely finished calipers.
The drive is really something special, this is a very tight car it feels like it's months old. Not a sound from
any suspension components even on the most cobbled road. The gearbox is amongst the best Tip' boxes I have
used in a 996, it's very flexible and youthful, astonishing and perfect, we cannot fault this car in the slightest.


Summary
Quite a find and a very rare optioned car. The early drive-by-wire 3.4 cars are becoming highly collectable, a low
mileage and low owner car with good spec is a sound investment and it just happens to be extremely good fun
too. Condition is as good as you could hope to find and the service history is beyond impeccable. It has perhaps
the best history and provenance on the market today.
