This 1997 Porsche 911 Targa 993 is a used car showing 181,695 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Midnight Blue with a Grey interior.

A British-market C16 car, this 993 Targa came from AFN Ltd, the Porsche West London centre, and was registered for the first time on 9 January 1997, in Midnight Blue over Marble Grey hide. It pairs the four-speed Tiptronic S with the VarioRam engine, whose variable intake first appeared on the Carrera RS; by the seller's figures it is one of 201 right-hand-drive Targa Tiptronic S, 81 of them from the 1997 model year.

Its stamped service record runs from June 1998 at about 17,700 km to August 2014 at about 175,500 km, and it has now covered about 181,700 km. The handbooks, two sets of original keys, the tool kit and jack come with it, and the sound system has been upgraded with Alpine and Audison equipment.

The car is located in London, United Kingdom.

FAQ

This Porsche 911 Targa in the European market

Can this Porsche 911 Targa be bought in the United Kingdom and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in London, United Kingdom. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How does the mileage of this Porsche 911 Targa compare?

181,695 km recorded, against a median of 27,110 km across the Porsche 911 Targa advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Who is selling this Porsche 911 Targa, and how does a purchase work?

BOB FORSTNER, a professional dealer in London, United Kingdom. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Porsche 911 Targa be inspected before purchase?

The car is at London, United Kingdom, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.

Is this Porsche 911 Targa still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with BOB FORSTNER before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the United Kingdom?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.

Where can I see the wider Porsche 911 Targa market?

LUSSO publishes a market overview for the 911 Targa, covering current asking prices in Europe, availability by country, why prices differ, how VAT works on a cross-border purchase and what to compare between two cars.
