The Appeal

The Porsche 968 was the final and most refined chapter of Porsche's front-engined transaxle family. Its 3.0-liter four-cylinder engine, featuring VarioCam variable valve timing, paired perfectly with the car's near-perfect weight distribution. It was a truly charismatic machine from bumper to bumper, with Stuttgart's now-customary build quality at its core.

This 1994 example has benefited from an extensive restoration carried out between 2015 and 2022 by a German car specialist shop. The scope of work encompassed new paint, a new roof, a full interior retrim, and a thorough mechanical overhaul. Since purchasing the car in late 2023, the current owner has invested over £2,000 in further improvements.

Accompanied by an advisory-free MOT until August 2027, this handsome car is now eagerly awaiting its new owner.

BEFORE YOU BUY

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions.

✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.

✓ This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is” basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes, and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.

✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.

✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do, and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorcycles for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.

However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status, and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle.

✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection
