## What is a 992 Carrera S like to drive?

Unhurried until you ask, then very quick indeed. The 992 is wider and heavier than the 911s before it and hides both well. Traction out of slow corners is the trick no mid-engined rival matches, because the engine sits over the driven wheels. The eight-speed PDK is close to telepathic in manual mode and the brakes never feel tested on a road.

## Is a 911 usable as an everyday car?

More than anything else in this class, which is the whole point of a 911. There is a 132-litre boot under the bonnet, the rear seats take bags or two children on a short run, visibility is good and the ride on adaptive dampers is genuinely comfortable. People hire supercars for a weekend and 911s for a fortnight for exactly this reason.

## Carrera, Carrera S or Turbo?

The Carrera S sits in the middle of the range and, for most drivers on a British road, is the sweet spot: 444bhp is enough to be properly fast without being academic. The Turbo S is a different kind of car, four-wheel drive and far quicker in a straight line. That one has its own page.

## What does it cost to hire a 911 Carrera S?

A refundable £5,000 deposit is held and the excess is £5,000. The allowance is 12,000 miles a year, then £2 a mile. VAT is included and the full cost stack is stated before you enquire.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you hire a Porsche 911 Carrera S in the UK?

Yes, on a sourced basis. It is arranged through a vetted partner rather than supplied from our own fleet, and a specific car and your dates are confirmed before anything is agreed.

### How fast is the 992 Carrera S?

444bhp, 0-62mph in 3.5 seconds with the Sport Chrono package fitted and 3.7 seconds without it, and a top speed of 191mph.

### Does a 911 Carrera S have rear seats?

Yes, two small ones. They suit children or luggage rather than adults on a long journey, and they fold flat to extend the load area behind the front seats.

*Performance & Prestige hires vehicles from its own fleet and, where a vehicle is not one of ours, arranges it through a vetted partner. Cars marked "we can source" are subject to confirmation before anything is agreed. Rates include VAT. Nothing is booked or paid for through this website: a person confirms the car, the full cost and the delivery slot with you first.*
