The Background
Porsche introduced the 928 in 1997 intending it to be a replacement to the 911, yet whilst that never happened the 928 found it’s own special place in the prestigious car makers lineup.
Winning car of the year in 1978 in part thanks to its revolutionary design that was highly futuristic at the time, the 928 garnered much praise from launch and only got better with time. Porsche revised the 928 several times over the fourteen years that it was in production.
This version, the S4, featured several improvements over previous iterations including the new 5.0L v8 that featured twin cam heads providing a significant boost to power all the way up to 316bhp and adding a ton of low end torque. There were also a range of aesthetic changes to bring the car into the 90’s, all of this has made the S4 a much sought after car that has grown a solid reputation as a fantastic tourer.
The History
The original owner purchased the car in London in 1989 (it still has the original dealers sticker in the rear window) and owned the car through to 2018, it was then purchased by a collector from North Wales at auction to add to his extensive collection where it remained until the current owner acquired the car, in 2019, after a long search for the right 928.
This is their second 928 and was purchased shortly after selling the first and immediately missing it, now they have made the hard decision to sell it to help fund their return to flying.

The Paperwork
There is extensive paperwork covering the life of the car including all of the work completed by the current owner as detailed below alongside all of the invoices from the previous two owners including a full engine rebuild in 1999.
The Interior
The interior is generally in good condition throughout, with only small signs of wear visible in the usual places such as the seat bolsters. The seats are all finished in plush leather that makes for an exquisitely comfortable driving experience and feature full electric adjustments, a rarity for a car of this period.
The dashboard, carpets and headlining are all in good condition and the car retains all of the original features including both the cargo net in the boot and the original Porsche toolkit. There is a small amount of damage to the top of the rear passenger side headrest as pictured.

Whilst leg-room in the rear isn’t exactly generous the rear seats are deep buckets finished in the same luxuriantly thick leather. They also fold flat, extending the cargo capacity of the 928 significantly and further increasing it’s appeal as a tourer.
The Exterior
The exterior is in mostly very good condition with the occasional area that could benefit from some attention. Finished in an elegant Polar Silver and with a long flowing shape this 928 looks fantastic and would be the envy of any car enthusiast. The wheels have been fully refurbished and most of the paint is in good condition, with a couple of chips as shown in the photographs.
Long, low and with curving lines the 928 has an instantly recognizable shape, finished in metallic silver this is a fantastic looking car with performance to match.
The Mechanics
As a true porsche enthusiast (and local Porsche club organiser) this car has been meticulously maintained and they have completed extensive improvements including; replaced MAF, LH control unit, knock sensors, rubber seals around the windows, fuel filler gator, bonnet and boot struts, cam sensors, serviced at recommended intervals including cambelt and waterpump, overhauled AC compressor and lots of other sundry items.
Everything works exactly as it should on this car (and it has an extraordinary amount of features for a car of this generation). The tailgate release works as it should and the courtesy lights come on when the drivers side door is opened. Everything else from the power seats through to the air conditioning and sunroof all work perfectly.
The Appeal
We’d argue that the 928 offers unparalleled driving experience for the money. With a surprisingly roomy four seater interior the 928 makes for a fantastic tourer and this S4 benefits from all of the improvements that Porsche made during production. With a big 5.0L V8 this 928 is no slouch with a sub six second 0-60 and it keeps pulling all the way up to the top speed of 168mph.
But don’t be fooled by the raw power, the 928 S4 holds the road in a vice like grip, its handling is remarkable for a front engined car of this generation and combined with the fantastic engine it makes for an exceptional driving experience.

This is one of the finest examples of a 928 we have seen, with only three owners from new, low mileage for the age and a fantastic service history that is reflected in the condition of the car, this is one you don’t want to miss. The 928 has developed a solid reputation for providing a fantastic driving experience, maybe it’s time you found out what all of the fuss is about.

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.
