Porsche did a lot of development in the 944 series and the Turbo is deservedly recognized today as a desirable version.
Australian delivered examples were well-equipped, with standard features such as power steering, power windows, air conditioning, central locking, power seats, etc.
This car was delivered new in Melbourne by the Porsche importer, Hamiltons of South Yarra. The car’s history file includes a large quantity of invoices dating back to the 1990s, confirming that the car has always been maintained by Porsche specialist workshops.
Two years ago the present owner bought the car. He had plans to adapt the car for use in club level motorsport, but the idea never progressed – the car remaining unmodified and little used.
The owner had a service completed in September this year. He notes the report of several minor items would benefit from attention: predominantly cosmetic and wear and tear items. Given it’s an almost 40 year old car, none of this is out of the ordinary or requires major work. The car is very realistically priced taking into account that these items require attention.
The car is a straight, sound rust-free Australian-delivered car with comprehensive service history. It has the original books, documents and jack. The tyres are good Yokohama Advans. The odometer shows the car has covered 228,000km – an average of 6000km per year.
The engine bay presents very well – which is a testament to the excellent maintenance record the car possesses.
If sold to a Western Australian buyer a new set of numberplates will be fitted as the owner intends to retain those on the car.
The car presents well, in an attractive colour scheme and is well-equipped. Features include power steering, leather trim, “Teledial” alloy wheels and a big removable sunroof. The car will be supplied with a different – functional – sound system.
The 944 Turbo is a model with an excellent reputation, whether for road use or adapting to motorsport as the owner had planned.
