Description
Motorsport Prepared, road legal Porsche 944.
Fabulous opportunity to hop straight into a purpose-built track car. Available for a fraction of the build cost, this 944 would be perfect for a new owner to enjoy on track or in hillclimbs and sprints. With minimal updates, it would be ready to race or rally. Meanwhile it’s road registered and a blast on a B road.
With a fine natural balance, a good 944 can shoot well above its weight.
This one was built by an experienced racecar builder in Hampshire. Attention to detail and clever features are clear to see. Although built purely for track and competition, we understand that it has had little use since completion, and remains impressively immaculate.
It's a far from basic specification, with a specially built 3. 0-litre inline-four 8-valve naturally aspirated engine, believed to be producing approximately 340bhp. Coupled to a short-shift five-speed manual transmission and limited-slip differential.
Look carefully at the pictures, this is no track hack, it is already ‘done’ and done well. You could use it as is or change it into anything you like. Ask our Motorsport Department about the possibilities........
