Description
An excellent example of this much sought after classic sports convertible from the last year of 944 production. One of only 625 Turbo Cabrios built, and one of only 100 with right-hand drive - of which only 50 were reportedly sent to the UK (One of only 35 known RHD manual examples in the UK now). 2.5L Turbo I4 engine with five-speed manual transmission. Impressive history file. A stock of invoices. Selection of MOT certificates going back to the 90s. Distinctive styling by Harm Lagaay. The soft top is in A1 condition and operates correctly having been replaced recently. The bodywork is excellent, free of dents and dings with a good, original panel fit. The paintwork is in excellent condition. The glasswork and lenses are free of chips and cracks. The car is sat on its original branded alloys shod in Potenza tyres - recently beautifully refurbished. Impressive black interior in original condition. Leather sports seats in very good order with no rips or tears and barely much sign of wear.
