Description
Few cars capture Porsche’s late-1970s ambition quite like the 928 S. Conceived as a refined grand tourer with genuine performance credentials, it paired V8 power with transaxle balance and unmistakable presence — and remains one of Stuttgart’s most compelling classics.
This example is particularly appealing. Finished in classic Guards Red over a black leather interior, it presents exactly as a Porsche of this era should, with clean, purposeful lines, period-correct details and a factory sunroof.
The cabin is well appointed, featuring electric windows & Cruise control while retaining the understated, driver-focused feel that made the 928 such a revelation when new.
Power comes from the sought-after 4. 7-litre petrol V8, paired with the engaging 5-speed manual dogleg gearbox — a rare and enthusiast-focused configuration that sets this car apart from the more common automatics.
Key features include:
Guards Red exterior
Black leather interior
4. 7-litre V8 petrol engine
5-speed manual dogleg gearbox
Factory sunroof
Electric windows
Aftermarket battery kill switch
K&N performance air filter
Michelin Pilot Sport tyres all round
Porsche Classic satellite navigation system
The car has been with its last owner for eight years and has clearly benefited from attentive ownership.
Recent maintenance includes a new Yuasa battery, oil and filter service, fuel tank bracket, clutch hoses, refurbished brake callipers, new flexi hoses, brake fluid and new exterior drive belts.
Of particular note is the comprehensive service history, supported by a substantial file of invoices and receipts. Much of the work has been carried out by respected Porsche specialists Autofarm of Bicester — a highly regarded name in the classic Porsche world.
A well-sorted, usable 928 S with excellent provenance, supplied with two sets of keys. A charismatic V8 Porsche offering presence, long-distance ability and real driving engagement — a true modern classic ready to be enjoyed.
