A Porsche 911 previously owned by pop legend Sir Cliff Richard is advertised for sale on Auto Trader.

The iconic actor and singer was the first owner of the 1983 Porsche 911 SC Targa, which is powered by a 204bhp 3-litre engine.

This means that the classic convertible is capable of going from 0-62mph in just 5 seconds and on to a top speed of 152mph.

This was one of the last 911 SCs ever built and has been treated to extensive bodywork and interior restoration. The bodywork is finished to a very high standard and the interior has been completely retrimmed.

It’s got 88,000 miles on the clock and is fitted with period Fuchs alloy wheels.

Cliff Richard’s Porsche 911 is advertised for sale by RPM Porsche of Cheddington, Bedfordshire, for £10,950.

With his backing group The Shadows, Sir Cliff dominated the British popular music scene in the pre-Beatles period of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

By the early sixties he had also established himself as an actor, appearing in classics such as The Young Ones and Summer Holiday.

He has amassed hundreds of gold and platinum discs and awards – including three Brits and two Ivor Novello awards – and has had more than 130 singles, albums and EPs reach the UK Top 20, more than any other artist.
