Highlights
- Great red paintwork
- Pop-up headlights
- Cambelt replaced in April 2022
The Appeal
The Porsche 944 remains a desirable member of the classic Porsche stable, and we can’t fail to enjoy a pop-up headlight. With its wedge-shaped styling and bright red paintwork, this car certainly stands out in modern traffic.
The car is in generally good condition, with a good interior and presentable paint. It is said to be technically good, starting and running well, although its MOT has recently expired.
In all, this is a great opportunity to acquire a 944 which could be brought up to a high standard with a little care and attention.
