Description
● Rare Nautic Blue Metallic paintwork
𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄
Few cars offer such a compelling blend of performance, practicality and pure style as the 944. And for that added dash of panache, the Turbo has to be the one to have. Of course, with the last model rolling off the production line in 1991, finding a good one is quite the task these days. But never fear! Here we have a quite lovely example, with verified low mileage, a fine history and bedecked in one of the rarest colours in the range.
Fans of the marque will need no introduction to the 944 Turbo – a superbly balanced grand tourer offering gorgeous proportions, lashings of practicality and truly fine handling. In recent times, this late 80s classic has begun to really gain traction with enthusiasts and collectors alike, with good examples becoming increasingly sought after. It’s easy to see why, the 944 is a modern classic you can reliably use every day, yet will still turn heads at your favourite meet on a weekend.
In our opinion, whether you’re looking for an interesting daily classic or something special to pull out of the garage for high days and holidays, you can’t go wrong with this stunning sports car.

We believe the 944’s time has come. For too long it has lived in the 911’s shadow, but no longer. It’s a compelling and capable grand tourer and sports car in its own right – and this is a truly beautiful example of the breed.
Handsome, elegant, increasingly sought-after and sure to attract the right kind of attention, we think it’s the perfect regular-use modern classic for the discerning Porsche fan. And with this example offering such a great (and rare) specification, fine history and genuinely low mileage, how can you lose? This is the perfect car for anyone who wants to put a true connoisseur’s choice in their garage – and it’s just in time for this year’s show season. Perfect…
