Highlights

Updated with a 964 body kit with electric ‘Cup’ mirrors
In current ownership for almost seventeen years, and just three former registered keepers
Accident-free history and always garage-kept
Can be easily converted back to a 930 Turbo with original 930 Turbo parts included in the sale (see photos)

The Appeal

Nicknamed the "Widowmaker", the 930 Turbo commanded profound respect from its driver. Frighteningly fast and often wayward in the handling department, this was the most impressive and indeed challenging 911 yet. Unsurprisingly, the 930 has garnered a cult following.

This 1982 example has been enhanced and updated with a body kit and electric ‘Cup’ mirrors. This gives our 930 the look and feel of a turbo 964 while retaining the underpinnings of the original "Widowmaker". It has been cherished by its current owner for almost 17 years, forming part of a careful ownership chain of just three former registered keepers since new.

Having been consistently garage-stored throughout its life and maintained in good mechanical condition, this 930 Turbo offers an opportunity to acquire a genuine piece of Porsche's turbocharged heritage. While some cosmetic refreshment would benefit the exterior, this French-registered example comes with a valid Contrôle Technique and presents an increasingly rare opportunity to own a uniquely modified example of one of Porsche's most iconic models.

The vendor tells us:

"Original parts are available (included in the package) should the new owner wish to restore it to its original condition: side skirts, complete bumpers, taillights with light strip, mirrors, and original Cibie auxiliary lights. I believe these parts are worth approximately €10,000. They will need to be repainted to match the existing colour."
