Angeboten mit folgendem Text: «This first-series M471 Lightweight, chassis 9113600269, was built in late 1972 and delivered new to the official Porsche importer in Sweden, Volkswagen Sverige, in Södertälje. It was finished in the legendary Porsche racing color of Gulf Blue, recalling the dominant 917s of the early 1970s. Only 18 Carrera RS 2.7s were finished in this stunning hue, and of those, just four were Lightweights. In addition to the M471 Lightweight package, this RS was optioned from new with a limited-slip differential and left and right headrests. The Lightweight was sold to its first owner in Sweden in March 1973, and according to documents on file, it was next sold to Swedish mechanic Bertill Karlsson in August 1974 following an accident, photos of which are on file. Karlsson reportedly purchased the car from an insurance company and repaired it after hours in the Porsche dealership where he worked, including replacing the car’s roof. In 1976, the RS was sold by Karlsson to fellow Swede Lars Sundman, who kept it until he sold it to an owner in the US in 1987.
The Porsche was then owned by several US-based collectors, including robotics pioneer and classic car collector Ron Green of Atlanta. In 2011, the RS was purchased by a private European collector and in 2012 it was sold by renowned specialists Maxted-Page Limited to a prominent UK-based Porsche collector. Invoices on file document over £15,000 in mechanical work and maintenance carried out by Maxted-Page from 2011–2020.
A report on file from Belgian RS 2.7 specialist Kobus Cantraine outlines this example’s history and notes that the chassis number located in the front trunk was scanned with magnetic resonance and found to be original. The report further states Cantraine’s opinion that the dashboard production number is “untouched and absolutely original, exactly how it has left the factory in 1972.” Cantraine also points out a unique feature of this RS – the fact that the car’s chassis number is also found stamped in the engine bay, a feature specific to Swedish-delivery cars.
The RS was acquired by the consignor via Mr. Cantraine in 2021, joining his impressive stable of the finest limited-production Porsches. With its well-documented history and rarity as a first-series Lightweight, this example is already an important, highly collectible sports car. One of just four Lightweights originally finished in Gulf Blue, this RS 2.7 is an ideally specified Porsche from one of the firm’s most glorious periods».
