The Porsche 996 Turbo Cabriolet was introduced for the 2004 model year, ending a long wait for Porsche to re-introduce a mass market Turbo Cabriolet, last seen since the 930 was produced in the late 80’s. This introduction marked the first time a water-cooled cabriolet with increased turbo charged performance left the production line.

Boasting modern day performance figures, the 996 Turbo earnt many acclaims from those who perhaps were hesitant that Porsche had made the big switch from air cooled to water cooled. All of its modern-day performance is delivered with incredible composure and perfectly lends itself for brisk enjoyment out on the Great British roads!

This Turbo Cabriolet was supplied new through Porsche Centre Swindon 9th July 2004 and finished in the classic yet classy combination of Artic Silver and black leather interior.
