What is the cost of a pre-owned Porsche 996?

The price of a used Porsche 996 ranges from £14,995 for the cheapest model to £44,990 for the latest and most well-equipped model.

A used Porsche 996 can cost different depending on mainly five factors: the year of the car, engine capacity and performance, fuel efficiency, vehicle mileage and equipment level.

For instance, a car that is newer and has fewer miles on the clock will typically command a higher price. In the same vein, models at the higher end, replete with luxurious features or more robust engines, generally come with a more substantial price tag than a car from an older model year, with higher mileage and no optional extras.

What fuel types are available for the Porsche 996?

The primary energy source for the Porsche 996 is petrol.

It's highly recommended to reflect on your driving patterns before making a decision on the fuel type. On a regular week, how far do you drive? Do you engage in many brief trips, or are your drives generally longer in distance?

For short trips, range is rarely a limitation, so electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol can be fine. For longer daily journeys, consider an electric car, especially if you have the option to charge at home or at work. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. Despite the rise of electric cars, diesel can still be useful for long journeys and lack of charging options. Note that diesel engines with significant emissions have faced entry bans in cities across numerous countries.

What body types do the Porsche 996 have?

With the cabriolet being the more popular choice, the Porsche 996 is offered in both cabriolet and coupe body styles in the UK. If you want to add a new dimension to the driving experiences, then a cabrio or a convertible is the perfect solution. Most cabrio models can be driven year-round these days, thanks to their excellent hoods and weather gear. To strengthen the chassis to make up for the lack of roof, thickener is applied underneath the car, which means that convertibles are often heavier than normal cars.
