1986 Porsche 944 LUX 2.5 - Long MOT - Good Con. SOLD

Manual Porsche 944 LUX for sale (registered 31st Dec 1986) on private plate. MOT runs to Sep 2020 and only a small number of advisories. Close to being tax-exempt (6 years). Gun Metal with burgundy leather interior and oval dash. Have owned this for over 10 years and in this time
have spent dutifully maintaining and looking after every aspect. Off the top of my head and in no particular order the following has been replaced and as far as possible kept OEM (receipts for everything from my ownership and before):

-New quality brand tyres all round (new 2019).
-New wipers + resprayed wiper arms front and back.
-New front and rear discs and pads (wear sensors looked OK).
-New wheel bearings front and back.
-New rear handbrake shoes and new handbrake cable and new lever (inside passenger footwell).
-New fuel line from tank to firewall.
-Sills professionally replaced from wheel to wheel both sides then heavy duty rust protector and colour matched respray. Big job so peace of mind for new owner. I have pictures of this work being done also.
-New suspension coil front offside (drivers side not replaced as looked ok but may need doing at some point).
-Dashboard - New digital clock (these are like gold dust!)
-Dashboard - New hazard light switch
-New cam belt
-New head gasket.
-New distributor cap + gasket, new distributor arm, new HV leads.
-New hoses (all replaced, there are about 7 or 8 in total).
-New drive shaft reference sensor.
-New drive shaft speed sensor.
-New front roll bar mounts.
-New bonnet lining.
-Cleaned injectors and new o-rings.
-Many services incl. oil changes, new oil filters, new air filters, plugs etc.
-New heavy duty battery (Jan-2020), will throw in CTEK battery charger/ maintainer.

Overall this car is in great condition and I will be very sad to see this go but after 10+ years I think it's time to pass the baton! Would make a great hobby car for someone looking for an affordable way to get into the classic car ownership world and I understand the 944 is on the upwards value curve so would also make for a great investment!
The car drives well, strong acceleration and gives great road feedback and grips the corners and handles perfectly, just as you would expect for a car with 50-50 weight distribution. Everything works on the car with the exception of the air-con which, to get working again, would need to be converted to from R12 to a legal fluid, I chose not to bother with this as air-con in the UK is not exactly a priority and it's quite a big job. The only non original parts are the head unit on the radio (it's a 5 CD changer model fitted before I owned the car) and the steering wheel which you can see in the pictures. Kept garaged in all the time I've owned.

If you would like a question answered or if you would like to come and view please let me know.

Thanks,
Simon

It was the fastest four cylinder in the world in its time. We had been searching for the best and most sought-after of the 944s for a long time: a Turbo Cup ...
