Registration: LG51 GBZ Chassis Number: WP0ZZZ99Z2S695114 Engine Number: 64220575 Number of cylinders: 6 CC: 3596 Year of Manufacture: 2001 RHD/LHD: Right Hand Drive
When Porsche launched the 996 version of their 911 GT2 in 2000, the car swiftly gained cult status as one of the most focused and fastest Porsche production cars ever manufactured. With the reported 462bhp produced from its twin-turbo flat six engine being transferred to the road through the rear wheels only (the Turbo model had four-wheel drive), performance was electrifying with 60mph being achieved from rest in just under 4 seconds and a top speed of about 198mph. The comprehensive history file with this rather special GT2 Club Sport contains both the handwritten order form and the sales invoice form AFN Porsche on London's Park Lane. They state that the options chosen when new were special paint, carbon package, leather console, carbon rear console, leather sport steering wheel and leather steering column casing, front floor mats, leather interior light, carbon door entrance panels, aluminium dials, carbon gearshift and handbrake, top-tint windscreen, centre console, Becker radio/CD, Club Sport package, leather bucket seats, coloured wheel centres, passenger six-point harness, and security glass covering. The total of the two-page invoice was a generous £131,710. Ordered by a businessman and gentleman racer who raced a modern 911 GT2-R and, despite having his own workshop to maintain his racing car, he entrusted the supplying dealer's Reading workshops to maintain the car for the first four annual services, and Porsche Hatfield for the 2006 and 2007 services. Thereafter he had the car maintained in his own workshop and transferred the registration into the name of his racing team in March 2013. As well as the aforementioned invoices, the history file also contains numerous maintenance invoices, many expired MOT certificates, and the handbook pack. The car has been serviced at the following intervals: 22/07/2002 Porsche Centre, Reading at 13,104 miles 21/11/2003 Porsche Centre, Reading at 21,749 miles 11/11/2004 Porsche Centre, Reading at 26,229 miles 15/11/2006 Porsche Centre Hatfield at 31,772 miles 25/10/2007 Porsche Centre Hatfield at 38,727 miles and Brake Fluid Change 16/11/2010 Rupert Lewin Racing Ltd. at 50,047 miles 29/03/2012 GT Marques Porsche Maintainers, High Wycombe at 53,118 miles and Brake Fluid Change 04/09/2012 Rupert Lewin Racing Ltd. at 53,975 miles 18/11/2004 Rupert Lewin Racing Ltd at 55,297 miles 13/02/2015 Hendon Way Motors, London at 55,358 miles 28/09/2016 Hendon Way Motors, London at 55,628 miles and Brake Fluid Change It was bought by our vendor on the 8th December 2016 to join his small collection of Ferrari and Mercedes, however, his expanding restaurant business has dictated that the car is little used. Indeed it has only travelled some 705 miles since September 2016 and at the time of consignment was reading 56,500. With only a reported 129 GT2 models imported by Porsche into the UK when new of which apparently only 16 were to Club Sport specification this two-owner car has a super provenance.
