59 Porsches up for auction

Fifty-nine Porsches will go under the hammer at Silverstone on Saturday as part of the UK’s only stand-alone sale for the Stuttgart marque.

The Northamptonshire auction features a wide range of Porsches from an entry-level 2003 Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 2 Tiptronic estimated at £18,000-£22,000, to a 1998 Porsche 911 (993) Turbo S estimated at £245,000-£285,000.

One of only 26 built in right-hand drive, the Turbo S is one of the most desirable and powerful versions of the 993 generation - the last iteration of the air-cooled 911 era.

High performance versions rarely come to market, and with only 36,210 miles on the clock, this 450bhp Porsche in Ocean Blue and a grey leather and carbon fibre interior is sure to spark a bidding war.
