Beschreibung

Porsche GB runs an annual, national Classic Restoration Competition open to its Official Centres and their esteemed automotive partnersPorsche Centre Tonbridge entered the 2016 competition celebrating 40 years of front-engined cars; this painstakingly restored and uprated 924 S is the result; featured in 'GT Porsche' magazineA remarkable car endowed with hundreds of hours of specialists work and benefiting from its big brothers power-plant, being a wonderful hybrid between a 924 and 944In striking and period Signal Green, to match the 924s original launch colourAll mechanically renewed and boasting a beautifully upholstered interior a real one-off and not to be missed!The 1976 Porsche 924 was a complete departurebythe company, in that it featured a front-mounted, water-cooled 1984cc engine thatwas essentially an Audi unit which Porsche then tweaked to 125bhp. The power went to a rear-mounted gearbox/transaxle and the advantage of this layout was that it gave the car near-perfect front/rear weight distributionwhich naturally improved the handling. The 924 was clothed in a pretty two plus two bodyshell which featured a large glass hatchback giving access to a relatively large rear boot making this a very practical sports car. The 2-litre engine, which powered the earlier models, developed 125bhp and the maximum speed was in excess of 125mph. Things were to improve, however, with the arrival of the 924 S which was fitted with an 'all-Porsche' designed 2.5-litre engine with 163bhp available. Withits sure-footed handling, the car was to prove a great success and nowadays is a popular choice as a potential future classic.The car presented here started life as a C16 (UK-supplied), 1988 Porsche 924 S delivered new via Porsche AFN Ltd. of Guildford. With a complete servicehistoryright up until 2016, mainly by Dick Lovett Porsche, recorded in its original booklet, andin excess of 100,000 miles, it was selected as a candidateto be reborn.
