Description
TD Classic Cars, your specialist in prestige, collector and youngtimer vehicles, offers this Porsche 928 S with manual gearbox and sunroof, finished in Zinnmetallic with black leather.
This 928 S has just had a major service, a timing belt and water pump replacement, and a comprehensive inspection in our workshop.
It also has new tyres.
It runs beautifully and will be supplied with a 12-month engine and gearbox warranty.
French-supplied, sold new through Sonauto and owned by the same keeper since the early 1990s, it combines a sought-after specification with a recent preparation.
The history of the model
Presented in 1977, the Porsche 928 embodies a particularly ambitious vision of the large sports car. Conceived as the marque's flagship, it combines the performance of a sports car with the comfort and versatility of a true grand tourer.
Its engineering showcases Porsche's expertise: an aluminium V8 mounted at the front, liquid cooling and a transaxle layout, with the gearbox at the rear to improve weight distribution.
Its Weissach rear axle contributes to its stability, while its bodywork makes extensive use of aluminium for several panels.
Named European Car of the Year in 1978, the 928 occupies a unique place in motoring history. The S version further sharpens its character with its 4. 7-litre V8 producing 300 hp. Paired here with a five-speed manual gearbox, this engine brings out the full potential of this grand Porsche.

Exterior and interior presentation
The Zinnmetallic finish, a metallic grey, accentuates the lines of the 928 S, its long bonnet and its distinctive silhouette.
The bodywork is sound and in good overall condition. Some signs of use are visible, but these do not detract from the overall presentation.
The black leather interior is in very good condition. The wraparound seats and driver-focused layout reflect the high-end positioning of the model. The sunroof adds to the enjoyment on board.
