The Appeal
One of the more sought after 944’s is the S2, a great all round and practical sports car with exceptional weight distribution and handling and a potent 3.0 litre naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine.
Most of the 944 S2’s that come to market have tended to have had a hard life and covered many miles, but this one has had one owner since new who has had it regularly serviced and mostly garaged throughout ownership and only covered 43,395 miles.
Looking for a nice and very cool classic Porsche? Then look no further.
The History and Paperwork
- First registered in 1992
- Documented history and mileage
- One owner since new
- 2 Keys
- MOT till 12/07/23
- V5c present
- Original owner’s manuals
- Space saver, tools and tyre inflator
- 2 sets of keys
Owned by the same careful owner since new the car has been lightly used throughout ownership being mostly garaged and regularly serviced.
The car is totally original and a fine example of a great Porsche sportscar that now just needs a new home.
Although the V5c indicates it has changed ownership a few times, this is the result of a divorce and the car changing hands between husband and wife during its life.
The Interior
- Classic Grey interior
- Factory sunroof
- Original stereo
- Luggage cover
Inside the Porsche the cabin is still in great overall condition with only the driver’s seat and steering wheel showing signs of its age and mileage.
Otherwise the cabin presents really well and still has the original radio fitted which still works fine and plays cassette tapes although the seller hasn't played them for a while, it also comes with the Blaupunkt Symphony instruction manual. All the electrics work as they should, with only the alarm currently not working, and the pop-up headlights operate correctly too.
Carpets, door cards and headlining, along with the dashboard and centre console are clean and in good presentable condition.
The Exterior
- Original black paintwork
- Original alloys
- Good overall condition
The 994 S2 is a good-looking car with nice lines and that classic coupe look that is very pleasing to the eye from any angle.
Being a London car, the bodywork has picked up its fair share of small dings, scratches and scuffs along the way and there are also a few areas, especially around the front wheel arches, that are beginning to show some corrosion as you’d expect to find on an un-molested car of this age.
The original alloys have fared fairly well with only light kerbing marks and some light corrosion in places (especially on the wheel centres) and tyres all have plenty of tread left on them.
The Mechanics
- Regularly maintained and driven
- Very low mileage
- Full-service history
- Last serviced in 2020, approximately 200 miles ago
Constantly maintained throughout its long-term ownership the car has been kept in excellent running order and is reported to start on the button and drive superbly.
The Summary
Under-rated for many years the Porsche 944 is now seen as a great modern-day classic and an opportunity to enjoy the pleasures of Porsche ownership at the fraction of the price of a 911. A nice and original 944 S2 with a great history and low mileage like this one would be a great place to start.
