The Appeal
If there is one word that personifies the cars in the 80s it has to be Turbo, a buzzword at the time, it certainly gave some buzz to the 944. Now with 220hp to the rear wheels, the 944 was a proper sports tourer.
This example has previously had a lot of work carried out on it and is now presented in very good condition for its age. Throw your bags in the large boot and get exploring, you won’t regret this addition to your collection.
The History and Paperwork
- The history of this 944 is neatly presented in a folder
- Filled with old invoices, documents, and even Porsche letters it is very comprehensive indeed
- The first important piece of paperwork to point out is the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity proving that this car is indeed an original turbo
- There is then a specification sheet for this car
- It shows that the car left the factory with quite a few optional extras
- These include, but are not limited to, the heated leather seats, forged alloy wheels, rear wiper, leather sport steering wheel, and air conditioning
- The early paperwork shows regular maintenance work on the car
- But in 2004 it gets a bit more interesting
- This car appears to go in for a respray and some corrosion repairs
- Documented through older photographs you can see that the car has been well looked after
- Carrying on through its life the regular maintenance is continued
- But in 2016 a lot of work is carried out, the full description of this invoice can be found in the gallery
- The last few invoices are from 2018, and much like the 2016 invoices, these are very large
- In March of 2018, it has a new head gasket, along with a strip down of the cylinder head, after 35 hours of work the invoice comes to £3,500
- After this rebuild, the car is sadly left, due to the owner at the time passing away
- About a year ago the current owner was able to acquire the car and set about recommissioning it for the road
- After passing its MOT it is now ready to go back out on the road
- You can see from the paperwork images the previous owners of the car have looked at it very well
- Now it’s your turn to enjoy what this 80s icon has to offer
The Interior
- The interior of this Porsche is very striking indeed
- Each seat is trimmed in this lovely CanCan red leather
- All around the leather is in great condition considering its age and mileage
- You may spot a few areas of the white piping that are brand new, but the car is nearly 40 years old so this can be expected
- The front seats are electrically operated and heated too
- Interestingly the rear seats are very 80s
- With only 1 seatbelt offered from the factory in the rear one of the bucket seats is void of a seatbelt
- An issue wrongly raised within the previous MOT
- You may spot that the original steering wheel has been swapped out in favour of this Momo variant instead
- Behind the steering wheel, the Porsche dials are all easily legible
- There are a few small cracks present on the dashboard, but nothing too major
- It still performs its job as it should
- Within the dash, you’ll find the controls for the air-conditioning
- Just below this, there is a radio cassette player
- In front of the gearstick, there are controls for the central locking, electric mirrors, sunroof, and rear wiper
- On the floor, you’ll find a nice set of 944 embroidered over mats
- Along with some black carpets
- Within the boot, you’ll find the spare wheel and a large space for all of your luggage
- Lifting the carpet, you’ll see that the floor is nice and solid
- Especially around the rear turrets, this is very clean
- Overall, the interior is in very good condition indeed
- You will have lots of fun inside this ‘80s icon
The Exterior
- Is there anything more ‘80s than a wedge-shaped sports car
- Externally this 944 is in very good condition as well
- During its restoration period, it did have a re-spray and corrosion repairs completed
- It is thanks to this preventative work that it now sits in such a condition
- You can see from photos at the time it had some new metal put in around the arches
- Although it sat outside for a little bit of time, the paint is still in very good condition
- The current owner did point out a few areas that they are going to work on before the auction
- So, you should have a very good looking 944 Turbo to add to your collection
- If you want to get very picky, two of the Porsche centre caps weren’t present at the time of the photos
- Importantly, however, the pop-up headlights work as they should
- Popping up and retracting without an issue they add to the car’s personality
- Up front one of the fog light covers does have a crack in it
- You may also wish to do some work to the rear bumper, there are just a few areas of age related wear
- On the rear, the Porsche monogram is in lovely condition
- The all-important Turbo badge is also nice and presentable
- Overall, the exterior of this 944 Turbo is in very good condition
- With a little bit of TLC in a few isolated areas, it will be a showstopper
The Mechanics
- This is a true sports tourer
- Thanks to the large boot and four seats it is very practical when you think about it
- Under the bonnet is a nice and pokey four-cylinder
- With the addition of the turbo, it would push out over 200hp
- Twinned with the characteristic Porsche handling it is a great car out on the road
- As you can see through the amount of paperwork this car has been looked after well
- This should mean that it will be a great mechanical example for you to enjoy whenever you wish
- During the photoshoot, it was required to move on a couple of occasions
- Each time it fired up and performed the task without complaining
- Overall, this is a very good example of a quick tourer
- Getting behind the wheel of this car will be a memorable experience that you won’t forget in a hurry

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
