The attraction


The addition of a turbocharger and intercooler to the 944's 2.5-litre engine has made a huge difference. The 944 Turbo reaches 100 km/h three seconds faster than its naturally-aspirated version, developing 217 bhp and an impressive top speed of 261 km/h.

This 1986 model really looks the part with its burgundy exterior and beige leather and fabric interior. Having undergone a major restoration, including a replacement engine with only 113,000 km, this 944 Turbo is reputed to be in very good mechanical condition. Its full service history, with original Porsche documentation, adds to its appeal.

With a recent MOT valid until August 2026 and many original components, this Porsche is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
