Comments from the seller

A classic car in excellent condition that has been regularly and expertly maintained. This car had a previous owner before the current owner in the 1990s, and it can be seen from the date-stamped maintenance record that the previous owner ensured regular maintenance (mainly by Scuderia Veloce, NSW). Since I acquired the vehicle, it has always been maintained by Brisbane Porsche specialists: mainly Porsche Centre Brisbane and DHM Auto. Roadworthy certificate available. Apart from the original date-stamped maintenance record, I also have a folder of recent receipts and invoices demonstrating that no expense has been spared to ensure the car is kept in great condition (more than $50,000 in about the last 2 years on restoring mechanicals such as wiring and power steering, as well as regular maintenance), so there will be no nasty surprises. There has been one significant modification. After a tail light was hit in 2023, our insurer's repairer replaced the original S4 tail lights with the (more recent) GTS version of the tail lights, which looks more snazzy than the original S4 tail lights. There are a few very minor issues: (a) There is one fault that has recently appeared, which is that the tyre sensor warning light is sometimes coming on although the tyres are correctly pumped, and we have not yet been able to source the part to correct this faulty sensor (although it is easy to switch off the warning light), (b) There is currently a small scratch on the passenger side wing-mirror, (c there are some cracks that have appeared in the dash just above the steering wheel (this would be easy to fix) and (d) the Porsche badge is the original and has become a bit faded. Photos of these issues are included. Features include: 5 litre V8 engine, capable of accelerating from 0–60 mph in approximately 5.1–5.9 seconds, automatic transmission, cruise control, cute pop-up front headlights, power windows, air-conditioning, radio and 6CD changer, spare tyre and original toolkit. Everything is working. The interior is in good condition, given that it is the original. This is the original cream leather seating, including bucket back seats suitable for the kids. (NB: The automatic details are incorrect that there are only 2 seats - there are 4 seats). Wheels have factory anodized finish and no kerb rash. Exterior paint is Baltic metallic blue. The car has always been regularly driven, with the only exception being when it was being maintained. It is currently only being driven on weekends (every weekend, to make sure it stays in good shape). It has always been kept in my locked garage when not being driven. I hate to sell this car, but my own advancing age means it is no longer a practical choice to keep it, and the garage space is now needed for another car.
