Porsche 911 1972 E series 2.4 s 1972 'oelkappe' model

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for serious Porsche collectors!
We are delighted to offer the holy grail of Porsche 911's and this one is as good as they get!
1972 E series 2.4 s RHD, one year only 'oelkappe' model - believed to be one of only 14 'S' models remaining
Matching numbers, original registration HMY 3K (famous series for 72 Porsche with 2K, 4K and 7K featured in magazines)
Gulf orange with black leather

Full restoration by Gantspeed Engineering between 2005-2009 with all invoices and photographic record. Restoration was 'last nut and bolt' and cost over £150,000 to complete.

Everything on the car was either rebuilt or renewed - engine, gearbox all full overhaul. Correctly refurbished Fuchs with correct Michelin tyres. This was a blank cheque rebuild and the result is a brand new 'out of the box' 1972 car - it has not a single mark or scratch on it.

Has done around 345 miles since the restoration with MOT and service history to confirm. Not only has a rain drop never touched it - it has never seen a cloud !

Original certificate of sale, 2 massive history folders and letters from previous owners.

Please do not delay, we will be placing this vehicle on the open market in a few weeks time but we are delighted to give our existing clients first opportunity to acquire a rare piece of Porsche history.

£374,950

So restoration finished in2009, and 345 miles since then, what a waste. Even Bootsy has done more miles

'It has never seen a cloud.' Wow what a waste. Even if my piggy bank stretched that far it would be terrifying to take it for a drive.

Amazing. I had this car for sale for months and months in 2005, at around £25K IIRC. It was in need of minor restoration, so I am amazed that someone managed to sink £150K into the car. Anyway, if it's cost the owner around £175K that's not a bad mark up.

I recall speaking with you about it at the time (2005?

) but it needed more work than I was willing to take on.

My notes have it as originally 'Tangerine' but maybe that was someone's interpretation of Gulf.

It was Tangerine.

You don't have any more 2.4S's knocking around at £25k do you Nick ? I'd happily take it off your hands mate, I know they can be hard to shift !!!
