Description
If you purchase a vehicle in a different country to your own, it may be subject to local duties, sales taxes, or environmental levies when imported. You may find this introductory guide helpful, and our team is also here to help.

KEY FACTS A charming and rare classic open-top sports car, this Porsche 356 A 1600 Convertible is presented in an attractive factory colour scheme. It is powered by a 1,582cc air-cooled flat-four, driving the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. This 1959-manufactured example was previously registered abroad and is now registered in Italy. The odometer indicates circa 40,000 kilometres, though this is not warranted. EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES The car is finished in silver over a red leather-trimmed cabin. It rides on a set of 15-inch wheels with chrome hubcaps. Equipment includes a wind deflector, a two-spoke steering, wheels, VDO dials, and a fire extinguisher. Accompanying the sale is the ASI card and certificate of origin. CONDITION Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: the car is in non restored condition, there are imperfections on the bodywork and a few small missing areas of paint. SERVICE HISTORY The seller states that the car was last serviced in July 2019 at 38,597 kilometres. Previous services were reportedly carried out in May 2017, July 2015, and July 2011.
