1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Lightweight (M471 Sport)

1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Lightweight (M471 Sport)

Originally conceived as a Group 4 homologation special, the Carrera RS 2.7 is – for many – the ultimate Porsche 911. Of the 1,580 cars made just 200 were to Lightweight (M471 Sport) specification with a mere 17 of those featuring right-hand drive. This particular example enjoyed considerable rallying success in period. Later reconfigured as a road car, it was restored by Autofarm before entering the current ownership during 1989. Fettled by Neil Bainbridge and Bob Watson since then, this iconic Porsche is finished in its factory correct hue of Tangerine. Pre-sale estimate: £180,000 – £220,000.

This car is no longer for sale or auction. Curses.
