1987 Porsche 911

There is no more quintessential image of a classic sports car than a Guards Red Porsche 911. This 1987 Carrera 3.2 is an absolutely sensational example of the breed, presenting in a condition that tru ... ly defies its age. Finished with a stunning black leather interior, this car captures the exact aesthetic that made the 1980s such a golden era for Stuttgart. Having been unused for a number of years, it has just emerged from an extensive professional recommissioning and major service to ensure it is as mechanically sharp as it is visually striking.

This Carrera has recently been the subject of a comprehensive mechanical overhaul carried out in February 2026. No stone was left unturned in preparing this car for the road again; the extensive works included a full engine service, a brand-new braking system across all four corners, and a complete suspension refresh. To complement the mechanical work, the iconic wheels have been professionally refurbished and powder-coated, perfectly offsetting the sensational paintwork. The car has just passed its NCT, offering its next custodian total peace of mind.

A summary of the significant works recently completed includes:

Engine & Drivetrain: A full engine service, new alternator belt, and a comprehensive inspection and rebuild of the starter motor.

Braking System: New brake discs, pads, and wear sensors fitted to both the front and rear. All four brake calipers were replaced or refurbished, and new front and rear brake hoses were installed along with fresh brake fluid.

Suspension & Steering: Replacement of the front and rear anti-roll bar (ARB) bushes, new front and rear drop links, and new damper pressure springs on both axles.

Finishing Touches: A new CV joint boot kit and a complete professional powder coating for the wheels.

I have personally driven this 911 over the last few weeks, and the experience is nothing short of addictive. The G-Series Carrera remains, in my opinion, the absolute sweet spot of the classic Porsche market—offering great value and it’s the perfect blend of 1980s usability with a raw, mechanical soul that modern cars simply cannot replicate. It is engaging, communicative, and immensely fun to drive. For the enthusiast seeking a high-quality, fully sorted Carrera 3.2 that is ready to be enjoyed immediately, this Guards Red example is quite simply the best value classic Porsche you can buy today.
