The Appeal
The Porsche 924 is celebrated for its balance, precision, and usability. Introduced in the 1970s as Porsche’s first front-engined, rear-wheel drive coupe, it delivered superb handling thanks to its transaxle layout and 2.0-litre water-cooled engine - a combination that still makes it an attractive entry into classic Porsche ownership today.
This particular 1984 example stands out for its remarkably low mileage of just 106,090 miles. Finished in Sapphire Metallic Silver with the iconic Pasha interior, it perfectly captures Porsche’s 1980s style. The vendor reports that the bodywork remains solid with no structural rust, while the interior presents well with minimal wear and no visible tears.
Accompanied by its original manuals, stamped maintenance records, and Porsche-approved 1984 registration document, this example shows genuine provenance. Recent works include a new Sach clutch, cables, and a professional rewire by Karmann Konnections. The car is said to run and drive well, starting hot or cold with no problems, though the existing keeper advises a steering alignment and service would enhance performance.
With its originality, exceptionally low mileage, and strong mechanical foundation, this 924 offers an excellent opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike. With light recommissioning, it has the potential to become a standout example of this increasingly desirable Porsche model.
