1981 very rare Porsche 924 Carrera GT for sale For Sale

Porsche wanted to enter the Group 4 Sports Car Class for Le Mans in 1980 and based their car on their successful 924 mainstream model. All non-essential elements were removed from the car in an effort to reduce weight. The vehicle was subsequently entered into the gruelling 24 Hours of Le Mans but in order to comply with homologation regulations road going versions had to be produced and Porsche addressed this rule with the Carrera GT. Standard specification included a close ratio dog-leg 5 speed G/ box, LSD, Bilstein shock absorbers, polyurethane plastic front and rear flared guards, a polyurethane plastic front spoiler, and a bonnet mounted air scoop for the intercooler. With a 2-litre turbo-charged engine producing 210 bhp, it reached a top speed of 150 mph and hit 60 mph in an impressive 6. 5 seconds.
This 924 Carrera GT is an original example of an extremely rare Porsche. Only 406 cars were made in total of which 75 were right hand drive, 20 of these were black. It is reported that only about 40 rhd versions survive with quite a few now residing abroad so you’re unlikely to meet another on UK roads!
It is in fantastic condition throughout for its age and the low mileage (83 500 miles) can be verified by the comprehensive history file including numerous MOT’s. It even has the glass fibre front brake ducts which often are missing due to previous accidents. The interior is equally impressive with no tears or marking to the fabric. Engine is generally clean with age related surface corrosion to some parts, it runs well and is believed to be in good condition internally. A true homologation special and an unmolested, original example.
Recent sales are also rare but when they occur they highlight the increasing value of these special cars, in July 2015 a 75 000 mile example sold at Silverstone Auctions for £50 625, Gmund Cars sold another for £50 000 early in 2017. This is a very special car, price on request.
