Porsche 944 Manual 1986 - At the end of its 9 year production run Porsches "944" was the companys most successful selling car, a title it retained right up until the introduction of the "Boxster". Often shunned by the purists due to having a traditional front engine, rear wheel drive layout, values of these pretty "Coupes" were in the doldrums for years but lately people have realised just what a good car nice ones can be, easy to live with as a first classic or a classic you can use every day, prices are now recovering at pace.
This particular 1986 model has the 2.5 litre engine which runs well and the 5 speed manual gearbox option. Having been stood for the last couple of years the vendor will be carrying out a new MOT prior to the Auction so although mechanically it will be good, we would still advise some recommissioning prior to use.
As you can see the body work is good and no doubt will respond well to a good polish. Interior is pretty much the same, all there and useable but with some damage to the bolsters on the drivers seat, so no not mint but good. General mechanics will be up to UK MOT standards as at the moment they are untested having just come out from storage and not driven on the open roads yet.
Offered here with a sensible reserve so allowing its new owner the opportunity to improve as they go and coming with an "interesting" plate that in itself has value, this 944 represents good value on the todays market.
